Recreation Round-up

YORK (Reuters Health) - Obesity rates continue to climb in California schools, but exercise and nutrition programs may be having a positive effect on student health, a new study suggests.

Kids entered fifth grade more obese every year, but they did not gain more weight and their overall fitness improved as they moved to higher grades.

"We accomplished a significant first step and that is to slow obesity," said Dr. William Bommer, a cardiologist at the University of California, Davis, who worked on the study. "But we importantly were not able to reverse it."

The researchers, whose report is published in the American Heart Journal, recorded the fitness gains after California mandated exercise time and healthful eating in public schools across the state in 2005.

While the findings suggest the prevention programs may be helping, they can't prove the programs caused the health improvements.

Obesity is associated with high blood pressure, diabetes and other ailments in children and adults. About 17 percent of children and teens in the United States are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In response to rising obesity trends, California required public schools to provide an average of 20 minutes of physical exercise per day for kids in kindergarten through fifth grade, and 40 minutes for grades six to 12. Schools also had to increase the quality and quantity of health education and could no longer serve high-fat, high-sugar foods and drinks.

Bommer's team tracked data from more than six million students in fifth, seventh and ninth grade from 2003 to 2008, after these measures took effect.

At each grade level, the students took fitness tests which included body mass index (BMI) measurements, endurance runs, push-ups and shoulder stretches. The researchers analyzed those test records for changes in obesity and fitness.

They found some encouraging signs. Though the number of obese kids continued to increase (two percent more children were overweight or obese in 2008 than in 2003), the rate of increase seemed to be slowing.

Student fitness improves with anti-obesity program

Execution of a proficient swing requires the golfer to perform a series of athletic actions in a very exacting sequence with the correct timing. Very little room for error exists as we can attest to you with the less than optimal shots that occur during a round of golf.

Ultimately the majority of golfers would like to see performance gains occur within their game relative to increased driving distance, better iron play, and lower scores. This process of improving ones golf game entails a number of factors including instruction, regular practice sessions, and potentially changes in equipment.

An additional aspect to performance training for the game of golf centers upon developing the physical components of the body around the requirements of the swing. Research indicates execution of a proficient swing where minimal compensations occur and speed generation is maximized requires certain levels of joint mobility, muscular flexibility, segmental stability, strength, and power.

The development of these aforementioned physical components provides the foundation by which the golfer can execute a proficient swing. On the flip side, if there are any limitations within the aforementioned physical components, the ability to execute a proficient swing will most likely by impeded.

As a result of this information, performance training for the game of golf should include time and effort spent on the physical side of this equation in the form of golf fitness training. Such training over time can reduce physical limitations affecting your golf swing and provide improvement in such areas an speed generation.

An example of this concept at work is segmental stability within the core. The core is a reference to an anatomical area of the body encompassing all the musculature structures from just above the knees to below the chest on the front, sides, and back of the body. Muscle groups such as the abdominals, lower back, glutes, hamstrings, and obliques are found within the core region of the body.

If the musculature of the core is weak it will most likely be very difficult for the golfer to maintain many of the postural positions required of the swing, create efficient rotary movement patterns, and generate speed.

Tour Report: Fitness: Ab exercise to strength core

TAMPA, FL--(Marketwire -03/22/12)- Carrie Scheiner, founder and CEO of http://www.exploracise.com, has unveiled a new lineup of learning tools incorporating fun, education and exercise, with a revamped website including forums and other interactive features.

The highlights of the new products and programs are the Exploracise Multiplication and Addition Ellipsoids, soft stuffed footballs. They make learning the fundamentals more fun than flash cards while getting healthy exercise too.

Scheiner integrates learning math facts with exercise in a DVD for kids, Exploracise Gymathtics (www.exploracise.com), that has reaped 14 awards in less than two years.

For Scheiner, a Tampa, Fla., mother of two, it's all about the numbers. She has a bachelor's in math and secondary education, and a master's in statistics from Rutgers University.

"One-third of U.S. children are overweight or obese and 61 percent of fourth-graders are not proficient in math," she says.

"As adults, we don't think about it, but much of our exercise regimens revolve around counting," she says."So I began thinking about how much more fun and healthy learning math could be for kids if we combined it with exercise to address those two growing national pandemics."

The Exploracise programs and products teach math facts aimed at ages 5 and older while younger children enjoy learning the new vocabulary. Whether tossing around one of the new Exploracise footballs or having quality educational screentime, kids learn math through fun interactive experiences.

"Research shows that exercise improves learning, and multi-sensory learning techniques improve recall of information," Scheiner says.

Several child advocacy groups agree. Exploracise has won the Mom's Best Award, Teacher's Choice Award from Learning Magazine, Homeschool.com's Seal of Approval, and Dr. Toy's 10 Best Active Products, among other honors.

"I want to encourage children everywhere to develop a love of learning and a healthy lifestyle for a successful life," Scheiner says. "Learning through fun, interactive techniques and making healthy choices from a young age will lead to happy, healthy adults who can achieve their full potential."

Leesburg, VA (PRWEB) March 21, 2012
