To be or not to be ... a couch potato

An Unnecessary Limit

The sports life is a total different experience. You get to compete and excel yourself in many different ways. Training may be hard, but winning is the price, in some ways.

Mostly, sports should be started at a young age. Children may learn fast and have more experience. Obviously, children can’t be pressured to be winners at such young age. Many competitive parents want their child with the gold, so they pressure them and pressure them on training and training, until training becomes a nightmare. Parents may think that there is almost no time, and they rush their children to victory, without even noticing if their child can follow or not.

Parents pressure on trainers too. Their kids must be always the first ones, so an intensive training is brought out. Many parents may not notice, but the human body also has limits. They may start winning, with incredible results that are even daunting. As they struggled for glory, they go faster to their disaster. Children start burning out, their bodies tired of excess. Every day with a seven hours training must also leave them scared.

The pressure is so hard because they have to be the first to maintain their families. At times, it is just too much; the children just can’t catch up with it. Usually, most of the children end up loathing their sport with their soul ad they are just too frightened to go back. For all the excess of training, most of them end up in surgery. Their bodies all worn out of tiredness and fatigue. Due to this, many of them may end up never being able to continue with their sports.
Nowadays, most of the teenagers that continue in their sports are really few. It is quite alarming how there were thousands of children that were sure of winning, and now there are just less than a half.

The parent’s pressure did not only burn their children’s bodies, but they also destroyed their spirit. Sometimes victory may be their defeat.
