Opening
Hello everybody, my name is Daniel CS, I love swimming because its my hobby. Of course by swimming we can make our body six pack and incrase our antibody.
I will explain the benefits, technique, history of swimming. Do you know?
Swimming is better than gym. because first swimming just cost with a lowprice. second swimming can make me more healthy. Thirth its common knowledge that swimming is a good way to exercise, which is one reason swimming are good for your health. Just 30 minutes a day of aerobic exercise can decrease your risk of chronic illness. But swimming pools aren’t just for swimmers. For non-swimmers, swimming pools can still provide valuable health benefits in the form of water-based exercise and the the rapeutic benefits of water.
Okay thats is a little information about swimming. For further information lets go to the next page. I hope you like it!!

 

Health, Sport & Well-being

During recent decades, there has been a progressive decline in the level of physical activity in people's daily lives in developed countries. For a majority of people, little physical effort is involved any more in their work, domestic chores, transportation and leisure. Whilst specific health risks differ between countries and regions, the fact remains that physical inactivity is a major risk factor for most common non-communicable diseases and physical activity can counteract many of the ill effects of inactivity. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that, with the exception of sub-Saharan Africa, chronic diseases are now the leading causes of death in the world. The WHO cites four non-communicable diseases that make the largest contribution to mortality in low- and middle-income countries, namely: cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease, and diabetes.


The Health Benefits of Sport and Physical Activity

Although research interest on physical activity and health dates back to the 1950s, the breakthrough in the scientific evidence on health benefits of physical activity largely took place during the 1980s and 1990s. There is an overwhelming amount of scientific evidence on the positive effects of sport and physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle. The positive, direct effects of engaging in regular physical activity are particularly apparent in the prevention of several chronic diseases, including: cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, hypertension, obesity, depression and osteoporosis.
The Report from the United Nations Inter-Agency Task Force on Sport for Development and Peace states that young people can benefit from physical activity as it contributes to developing healthy bones, efficient heart and lung function as well as improved motor skills and cognitive function. Physical activity can help to prevent hip fractures among women and reduce the effects of osteoporosis. Remaining physically active can enhance functional capacity among older people, and can help to maintain quality of life and independence.

Physical activity and psychosocial health

The WHO has estimated that “one in four patients visiting a health service has at least one mental, neurological or behavioural disorder, but most of these disorders are neither diagnosed nor treated”. A number of studies have shown that exercise may play a therapeutic role in addressing a number of psychological disorders. Studies also show that exercise has a positive influence on depression. Physical self-worth and physical self-perception, including body image, has been linked to improved self-esteem. The evidence relating to health benefits of physical activity predominantly focuses on intra-personal factors such as physiological, cognitive and affective benefits, however, that does not exclude the social and inter-personal benefits of sport and physical activity which can also produce positive health effects in individuals and communities.

Sport and Physical Activity as part of a Healthy Lifestyle

A number of factors influence the way in which sport and physical activity impacts on health in different populations. Sport and physical activity in itself may not directly lead to benefits but, in combination with other factors, can promote healthy lifestyles. There is evidence to suggest that changes in the environment can have a significant impact on opportunities for participation and in addition, the conditions under which the activity is taking place can heavily impact on health outcomes. Elements that may be determinants on health include nutrition, intensity and type of physical activity, appropriate footwear and clothing, climate, injury, stress levels and sleep patterns.

Sport and physical activity can make a substantial contribution to the well-being of people in developing countries. Exercise, physical activity and sport have long been used in the treatment and rehabilitation of communicable and non-communicable diseases. Physical activity for individuals is a strong means for the prevention of diseases and for nations is a cost-effective method to improve public health across populations. 

Elementary Physical Education expands in St. Vincent the Grenadines

The Trinidad & Tobago Alliance for Sport and Physical Education's (TTASPE) programs enhance the capacity of teachers, coaches, community leaders and volunteers to develop ‘holistic’ students.

Between 16-22 September 2012, TTASPE Sport Development Officers, engaged 31 teachers from various primary schools in St. Vincent & the Grenadines; and officers from the Ministry of Sport, Tourism & Culture in different pedagogy ideologies and implementation strategies to TTASPE’s Elementary Physical Education Program.

TTASPE thanks the Ministry of Sport, Tourism Culture, Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health, Environment and Wellness of St. Vincent and the Grenadines for making this workshop possible and look forward to future progressions together.

TTASPE’s Elementary Physical Education Program is primarily funded by the Australian Sports. At the end of this workshop, participants expressed to facilitators the benefit of the resources and information received and; how strongly it will have an impact on their physical education experiences for the future.

Participants conveyed their most significant changes through the following testimonials: 
  • "Physical Education is about developing the fundamental skills of the students, and not so much of playing a particular sport. What used to be done in my physical education class was that I would teach the sport instead of developing the skills. However, I now know that it’s not the same, and my approach will be different - because once the children have fun while learning. The different fundamental skills are a greater achievement than just learning to play a sport. Skills once developed properly can be applied to any sport in the long run."
  • "Physical Education as I knew it was playing ring games and letting the students run around after. However, since attending this workshop I am now excited to have P.E. with my class. First, I felt as if there was not much to do and hesitant to go with the students on the third day in the hot sun. This changed significantly."
TTASPE’s Elementary Physical Education Program aims to achieve quality physical education programs that promote physical, social, cooperative and problem solving competencies along with motor skill development, physical fitness, life skill education, disability awareness, and understanding of concepts (TTASPE’s Big 5 - FUN, Maximum Participation, Learning, Inclusion, Success) that foster lifelong healthy lifestyles.

 

Swimming to Get a Six-pack







Swimming to Get a Six-pack
If your goal is to chisel your abs into the coveted "six-pack," swimming is an excellent means of burning fat while strengthening your core muscles. Whatever you current fitness level, you can adapt a swimming routine to work with your particular strengths. Before making any drastic changes to your exercise habits, go over your plans with your primary health-care provider, particularly if you have heart conditions, difficulty breathing or are obese.

 

Easy on the Body

Exercise physiologist Robert A. Robergs says swimming is a good fitness choice for just about everyone, especially those who have physical limitations or who find other forms of exercise painful.
"It is a good, whole-body exercise that has low impact for people  musculoskeletal, or weight limitations," says Robergs, director of the exercise physiology laboratories at The University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.
Water's buoyancy accommodates the unfit as well as the fit. Water cushions stiff joints or fragile bones that might be injured by the impact of land exercises. When immersed to the waist, your body bears just 50% of its weight; immersed to the chest, it's 25%-35%; and to the neck, 10%.
Athletes use water to rehabilitate after injury or to cross-train. People with arthritis or other disabilities use water to improve fitness and range of motion and to relieve pain and stiffness.
"Swimming is also desirable for people with exercise-induced asthma," says Robergs, "as the warm, humid air [around the pool] causes less irritation to the airways."

Fitness Benefits

Lose Fat

It doesn't matter how much you strengthen and tone your muscles if you have an inner tube of extra weight around your middle. Swimming is an excellent all-around option for just this reason; while you build muscle mass, the cardiovascular effort will burn through body fat. To maximize your weight loss, combine your swimming routine with a healthy diet. If you increase your caloric consumption along with your new fitness routine, you won't see any fat loss. Don't rely on your scale as an indication of progress, either. You may weigh the same as your muscle mass expands and your fat reserves shrink.

Closing
Ok thats all about swimming..
I hope you will like it and this little information means for you or your friend.
thanks for watching my blog =D.

FABEL

The Fox and The Crow
A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settle on a branch of a tree.
     "That's for me, as I am a Fox," said Master Reynard, and he walked up to the foot of the tree.
     "Good day, Mistress Crow," he cried. "How well you are looking today: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds."
     The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by Master Fox.
     "That will do," said he. "That was all I wanted. In exchange for your cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future: "Do not trust flatterers." 

The Story Behind Breaking Dawn’s Twist Ending

The final Twilight film, Breaking Dawn - Part 2, came out last night at midnight, and it's so chock-full of big, outrageous moments — a bloodthirsty Kristen Stewart attacking a mountain lion in mid air, for example — that it will have fans buzzing about it well beyond a huge box office debut. But the biggest, boldest moment in the movie? The one that's guaranteed to be the most-debated, most-discussed moment of the entire franchise? Well, that one requires a Spoiler Alert to talk about … and we met with director Bill Condon for the inside scoop on how it came together.
The most ardent Twilight fans have known for a while now that Condon took some liberties with the third act of the film, since the trailers are selling a giant battle sequence that pits the evil Volturi (principally repped by Michael Sheen's Aro and Dakota Fanning's Jane) against all of our good guys. Stephenie Meyer's final Twilight book, though, has a climax that isn't nearly so action-packed: When the Volturi arrive in Forks, determined to murder Edward and Bella's new daughter Renesmee, Meyer sets up the beginning of a big confrontation … and then everyone talks it out, the Volturi learn that Renesmee is a harmless human-vamp hybrid instead of the outlawed, 100 percent vampire child they feared she was, and everyone basically goes home.
Up until Breaking Dawn - Part 2, the Twilight films have been as faithful to Meyer's books as Edward is to Bella, so this ending presented a problem: Was there any way that a mild, talky finale would play as anything but an anticlimax after four movies that had been building to this important moment? And so, a gigantic battle sequence was conceived — "To me, it's like an eight minute musical number," said Condon — but even that doesn't reveal the whole twist.
Because that new battle? It starts with a shocker: After clairvoyant Alice (Ashley Greene) unsuccessfully tries to persuade the baddies to stand down by taking Aro's hand and pleading her case for peace, Aro and Peter Facinelli's Carlisle leap at each other in mid-air (this movie has more mid-air clashes than the cut scenes of Ninja Gaiden), and when Aro lands, he's got a smile on his face and Facinelli's decapitated head in his arms. It's the ultimate lean-forward moment for Twilight fans: They just killed Carlisle! And even more good guys perish in the literally head-twisting melee that follows, including teen wolf Seth (who falls to the blunt psychic force administered by Fanning's Jane) and Jackson Rathbone's Jasper. Finally, after the remaining good guys manage to rally and defeat nearly all the remaining villains, Bella herself gets the upper hand on Aro, coming after his decapitated head with a flaming torch …
… and that's when the action suddenly zips back to that moment where Alice took Aro's hand. You see, that whole battle sequence ending in Aro's death? It was all a visceral vision of the future that clever clairvoyant Alice passed to Aro in that moment: Proceed with your plans, and it will mean certain death. Shaken, the evil vampire retreats, and the good guys win, free of casualties. It's the ultimate have-your-blockbuster-cake-and-eat-it-too moment, since fans get a gigantic third act battle scene that never really even happened.
"The reason why I think it works is that it’s within the universe of what Stephenie created, and it could as well have been the way it went down in that book, you know?" explained Condon. "You understand why she wouldn’t have spent all that time writing a battle, but again, it honors the ultimate outcome." But was the filmmaker nervous about engineering that rug-pull of a twist? "All the time. All the time. It was always a risk … the worst thing would be if people felt pissed off, like that season of Dallas where it was all a dream."
Still, even if fans debate the ending for years to come, it's clear that Condon is fully on Team Twist. Bring up the biggest kills in the sequence, and the filmmaker (whose affinity for horror was indicated back in 1995, when he helmed Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh) starts giggling, a mischievous glint in his eye. "When I got involved, it was just a sentence, 'There’s a battle.' But then it was fun to actually come up with it. That was, I would say, the biggest thing I worked on for two years." And the most fun part? "Deciding who to kill!"
"It was the ones that would have the most impact," said Condon, grinning. "Obviously, all the bad guys get wiped out and that’s satisfying, but as for the good guys, I think the first one I wanted to kill was Seth. The idea of using that pain on an animal, I think that’s more powerful because we’ve seen Jane do that to other creatures before, other vampires and humans. And then the ones you don’t expect like Carlisle and Jasper, you know, those were the ones that would have the biggest 'oomph' and surprise."
Condon credits screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg with selling Meyer on the twist — "She was totally behind it" — and says that so far, Twilight fans seem to be loving the fake out. He would know: Condon revealed to Vulture that before each movie comes out, Summit calls upon a carefully selected test audience of 75 Twilight super-fans to watch the film in its roughest form, a method that bypasses the traditional test screening audience while also ensuring that the series can get the sort of nips and tweaks that will satisfy faithful Twi-hards. Condon laughs as he remembers the huge outcry from the faithful when Facinelli's unkillable Carlisle met his maker.

"And then when they realized that it was just Alice’s vision, there was a gasp, then there was this laughter of relief, and then there was applause," says Condon, giggling again. "And I was like, 'Whew, we’re going to get away with it!'"
