THE FOUR BENEFITS OF FOOTBALL

14Apr

Francisco Lobato trainer of the Atlético de Madridwith extensive experience in the training of young athletes exposes the values of sport, his particular vision of what constitutes physical activity and everything that surrounds it in our societies. They are already well known benefits of the Football and any Sport, but defines in a loquacious manner these advantages.

It speaks of the Sport as an "experience integration" which helps to "educational process" develop in any human being. Regardless of age, social or cultural class, the Sport, well practiced and directed, helps to build more balanced and less disrupted societies. It is good to emphasize that Sport You must be well educated, because it can be a double-edged weapon and harm rather than benefit.

Here I detail four processes that are completely advantageous for the human being:

1. physical: the Sport generates self-knowledge of your physical limits. Know where your body can reach. The sport also is health, but need to know what to do and how, because poorly practiced can occur injuries, Reductor... Sport It is a cult of the body.

2 psychic: Sport is a real factory of emotions. You can help us to manage wisely our emotional life, which on many occasions has a little developed and leads to frustration. In the Sport you win, you lose... You build yourself through these experiences. The Sport It can also serve as escape route to release toxic emotions, now well, this can be misused in parents who are released as SPECTATORS.

3. social: the Sport It increases the quality of the interactions between its individuals. Encourages fair play, fair play... They disappear the social contexts and everyone joins in favor of the team. The Sport It is the best medicine to unite diverse, multicultural societies. We have many examples in cinema, as Invictus. Sport is diversity and generates very strong ties, which can be converted into friendships.

4. moral: the Sport you turn in values. But values is apprehend by example. When in a marathon you pass within meters to a man of 70 years and then you see that, at kilometre 38, he beats you. The ego is deflated, is a reality. In sport, the boldness, courage, decision making is practiced. A coach has more power of EDUCATING in values than a classroom teacher.

These points are developed which refers us to the need for perennial values in a society as liquid and volatile, with so many changes. The Sport It is the main tool for this purpose.

SPORT IS LIFE
