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’s when the fitness levels begin to drop steadily into old age. The good news is that those who have the peak fitness levels in their 20s usually stay physically healthy and use less healthcare services during their lives. Adolescence is the most important period in all our lives. It is when our cardiovascular, cardiorespiratory, skeletal, and muscular strength are built, forming the foundation of health for life. Bone mineral density (BMD) peaks in the late teens. BMD is the main factor in whether a person acquires osteoporosis and may suffer its complications later in life. Physical activity and nutrition are things that teens have control of to build the best bodies they can for their future. (1) Do they? Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office recognizes that adolescent teens don’t think about these things. The teen years have many other diversions demanding their attention!

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

Competition and activity seem to work! The best ways to get teens to as peak a fitness level as imaginable is to encourage them to move early in life. One study set up competition among student groups outfitted with pedometers and monitored their steps for 12 weeks. Students in this study all ended up doing 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 increased for a year after the intervention.
