Have you noticed that in society today, people being mindful of their fitness and diet seems to be non existance. With the technology field booming and junk food being soo easily accessible, our society has now been plunged into a new type of life where we have obese kids glued to their tablets and laptops with not even the thought of getting up to kick a ball. My brother seems to be the perfect example of how fitness and diet doesn’t play a major role in his life. Lounging around on the couch and texting for hours whilst sipping on a double caffeine MountainDew is a daily routine with my brother but not just him,but most of us. It isn’t long before us South Africans end up with an obese population rate like America and it also isn’t too late for us to make changes in our life, so why not make a change in your life?
Good morning to my teacher and fellow pupils. My topic for today is on “Fitness and Diet”. Why is being fit and having a healthy nutritious diet so important? Firstly,Life is much more delightful when you’re in shape , you look and feel great. Many common health issues such as diabetes and high blood pressure are the result of people leading an unhealthy lifestyle .Physical fitness and consuming the correct nourishment daily can overcome this. Secondly, Have you noticed people who complain that they don’t have any energy? These are people who fail to realize that exercising gives you energy! Exercising daily increases your strength and stamina and allows you to cope better with your daily activities such as climbing a flight of stairs or carrying a heavy parcel. Keeping fit also keeps that excess fat off your body. If you are just dieting you’ll be losing some muscle with your fat and your metabolism will also seem to slow down but if you’re working out whilst dieting this can be better for you because you’ll be able to keep your muscle and at the same time you’ll be getting rid of your fat. Don’t just stop working out once
