                    Importance and risks of doing adventure sports


Man by nature is an adventure seeking being; God put this spark and spirit of adventure in man to conquer challenges in life. Antoine de Saint-Exupery has beautifully said, ‘It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys.’ Importance of risk and adventure in man’s life is humongous. They instill in him self-belief, high self-esteem, and confidence. In the modern times a man without attraction for risk and adventure cannot survive. Invention, innovation, the joy of finding and doing something new lie beyond risk and adventure. More and more people want to share the swashbuckling thrill of adventures.

 

Adventure instinct is innate in man. The mischievous child, the risk-taking youth, the instinct to go beyond, all reflect it. No wonder man has inclination towards adventure sport! The adventure sports though appearing to be risky are full of thrill and excitement that have many benefits. As they are becoming more and more available, more and more people are experiencing the swashbuckling side of adventure sports. The contemporary generation of the youngsters, especially, the teenagers appear to be crazy about adventure sports. The adrenaline packed maneuvers provide such an extreme thrill that those who taste it once become addicted to it.


Man undertakes adventure to quench his inborn thirst for thrill. In the modern times more and more people are doing adventures. More and more people are climbing Mt. Everest; more and more people want to go into space; the demand for adventure sports is rising. A wide range of adventure sports is available now: bungee jumping, mountain climbing, sky-diving, para-gliding, sky-surfing' extreme-skiing, mountain-biking, kayaking, etc. The thrill one gets after climbing a steep mountain, or diving fast from a plane, the opening of parachute just a few hundred feet from earth's surface, can never be felt in any other activity. Adventure sports are becoming increasingly popular among the daredevil teenagers for the sheer excitement and thrill involved in them.

Hey here is ur answer

*Benefits and risks is sport*

Only six out of 10 children aged between five and 14 years participate in sport outside of school, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The Australian Health Survey conducted in April 2012 found that 25 per cent of Australian children and teenagers, aged five to 17 years, are overweight or obese, indicating that we need to foster a more sports-minded culture that encourages children to be physically active.

People who are active dramatically reduce their risk of many diseases, including heart disease and osteoporosis. Regular exercise is also known to reduce the risk of emotional problems such as anxiety and depression. Habits are established early in life and evidence suggests that physically active children are more likely to mature into physically active adults.

Benefits of sport for children

Some of the many benefits of sport participation for children include:

reduced risk of obesity

increased cardiovascular fitness

healthy growth of bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons

improved coordination and balance

a greater ability to physically relax and, therefore, avoid the complications of chronic muscular tension (such as headache or back ache)

improved sleep

mental health benefits, such as greater confidence

improved social skills

improved personal skills, including cooperation and leadership.

Reducing inactivity may be more effective in achieving overall increases in energy levels in young children than putting the emphasis on increasing involvement in sporting activities. Taking steps to reduce children’s sedentary time is important.



Sedentary pursuits and children

Around 40 per cent of Australian children don’t participate in sport at all. Common sedentary activities that compete with physical activity include:

homework

computer games

internet use

television.

The Australian Government recommends that:

‘Children and young people should participate in at least 60 minutes (and up to several hours) of moderate to vigorous-intensity physical activity every day.’

‘Children and young people should not spend more than two hours a day using electronic media for entertainment (such as computer games, internet, TV), particularly during daylight hours.’
