PEAK FITNESS DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE

Remember when you were in your 20s? Researchers report that physical fitness peaks at about 20 years of age and remains there until the early 30s. That is when the fitness levels begin to drop gradually into old age. The good news is that those who have the high fitness levels in their 20s typically stay physically healthy and need less healthcare services throughout their lives. Adolescence is the most important phase in all our lives. It’s when our cardiovascular, cardiorespiratory, skeletal, and muscular strength are built, creating the foundation of health for life. Bone mineral density (BMD) peaks in the late teen years. BMD is the main factor in whether a person gets osteoporosis and may suffer its effects later in life. Physical activity and nutrition are issues that teens have the ability to influence the building of the best bodies they can for their lifetime. (1) Do they? Minster Chiropractic Center knows adolescent teens do not think about these things. The teen years have many other distractions demanding their attention!

HOW CAN WE HELP Minster TEENS BUILD THE BEST BODIES POSSIBLE?

Competition and activity seem to work! The most efficient ways to get teens to as peak a fitness level as imaginable is to get them moving early in life. One study arranged competition among student groups outfitted with pedometers and monitored their steps for 12 weeks. Students in the study all showed more physical activity both in in-school and in after-school activities. Their cardiorespiratory fitness improved. Body fat and waist-to-height ratios reduced. The leisure-time physical activity improved even a year after the intervention.
