The trained muscles 'remember' strong form Photo: Ilian Telkedzhiev, lap.bg Physical training is easier for those who have practiced it before. And scientists from Norway recently and know why. ... It turns out that the muscles literally remember exerted effort even after they have left to degrade. Memory health strains stored in the nuclei of muscle cells. When muscle strain, DNA from these nuclei are distributed in the tissues. Previously it was thought that the atrophied muscles these cores are lost, but it is not. Produced extra nuclei survive and act like banks with information. It allows rapid attainment of good form when starting a new exercise regime. Study leader Kristian Gundersen from the University of Oslo said that this effect is due to the size of muscle cells. They are too big, so I need more than one core, drawing up the DNA templates for protein production. Hence the explanation of another discovery - that the first exercise increases the number of cell nuclei, only then manifested increased muscle mass and volume. In experiments with mice "of sports' cores survived three months after stopping the fitness program - which in rodents is almost half a lifetime. Atrophied muscles, but at the expense of other cells. The finding suggests that children should be actively engaged in sports from an early age and the mandatory physical education classes may be among the most beneficial to their educational benefits.

Another great season for Josh Filafilo! This year 14 years old Josh did prove again that hard work pays off. He ran with the 15 years old boys and got two medals at B.C. Summer Games and B.C Athletics Championships! His time is third in BC all time top 10!! Way to go Josh!

Professor Nanette Matrei - expert in sports physiology at the University of Strathclyde Scottish town notes that people have just noticed the connection between sedentary lifestyles and mental disorders. "Today there is clear evidence that physical activity can prevent depression," says Matra quoted by the BBC. In people who have sedentery lifestyles, the risk of falling into a depression 2 times larger than those that are moving more. Several studies even show that exercise is the best treatment for depression. Researchers from English city of Bristol have found that physical activity decreases by 1/3 and the risk of development of Alzheimer's disease. Scientists explain this fact to improve the functioning of the cardiovascular system and the changes in the chemical processes taking place in the brain. Judy Batris - Director General of the British organization problems of nutrition notes that in recent years the authorities have a strong focus on healthy eating oslovnoto but neglected the need for movement. British Ministry of health protection determines the rate for physical activity for people mature as follows: or sports 30 minutes a day five times a week. Data from various studies very few people meet these recommendations. Especially alarming is the trend noted among children - almost all of them prefer activities that do not require physical activity. 30% of boys and 40% of girls do not meet standards for physical activity.

The coach must hear athletes to have an idea of how he feels. The athlete must be aware of their own body and to work closely with their coach and give feedback. An athlete can have all the talent and physical abilities to the world, but in order to realize its potential, it must be conscious about your body. " 2. Empathy "Athletics is a very individual sport and the coach should have sympathy for the athletes and to prepare for the mental and physical stress of daily workouts. The coach should be supportive of this. How it solves the coach and athlete. St two wounds should agree what they expect from each other. But they should be prepared that vziamootnosheniyata them may change based on the growth of athletes and its development. " 3. Assembling the puzzle "All good coaches need good technical skills, but more important is the ability to observe.

Be calm "It takes a high level of trust on both sides - from the athlete and coach to the full potential of the athlete and. We live in a busy society, but athletics is a long term project. Patience should be the motto. Many athletes can not reach its capacity within 28 years. And that's statistically proven. The truth is in long-term projects. You need to be patient. Everyone develops at different rates and reach different levels and we should be prepared veins of changes in life and the coach and the athlete. "
