Physical Exercise
Or, Utility of Physical Exercise
Physical exercise means the movement of all the limbs of our body. It is not possible to keep in good health without proper physical exercise. Our body is like an engine. It gets animated (প্রাণবন্ত) if it is moved properly. Otherwise, it gets rusty like iron.
The importance of physical exercise is immense. We need it for the preservation (রক্ষা) of our health. The movement of the organs of our body helps to keep good health. It makes our body strong and fit. It helps to keep away diseases. There is a wise saying, “A sound mind in a sound body.” It means if the body is unsound, the mind will be unsound. Thus we have to keep our bodies fit to get peace and satisfaction. Again, physical exercise helps the circulation of our blood. It also increases our power of digestion (হজম). It keeps our skin fresh and animated. The man who takes physical exercise regularly gets energy and refreshment (সতেজতা). He can enjoy life. In fact, physical exercise enables us to build up sound health which is the key to success.
There are various forms of physical exercise such as walking, running, riding, swimming, and racing. rowing, gymnastics, etc. Different types of outdoor games such as football, cricket, ha-du-du, and hockey. tennis, dariabandha, gollachhut etc are important forms of physical exercise.
Physical exercise is no doubt vital. But it should be taken considering (বিবেচনা করিয়া) age, taste, energy, and manner. All cannot take all forms of exercise. We have to select the right form of exercise. If weak people play football or cricket, they will be tired. They should take milder forms of exercise. Young men can play football, cricket, gymnastics, etc. These can help them to get proper utilization of exercise. Again, there are people who work very hard for their livelihood (জীবিকা). They need not take physical exercise. We should take exercise depending on our taste and energy. We should exercise till we sweat (ঘামানো). It will act like a recipe for keeping our body active.
Physical exercise does us much good. If we neglect exercise, we will not be able to have sound health. We will not get our fitness. We will always be gloomy (মন মরা). We will be bulky (বৃহৎ) and fat. Different diseases will attack us. We will lose stamina, energy, and potentiality. Life will become a burden to us. We will lose all the happiness if our health breaks down or is attacked with diseases. Thus we should not neglect physical exercise.
We have to be careful regarding the time and duration of physical exercise. We have to confine the duration within our power and capacity. Excessive (অতিরিক্ত) exercise is very harmful (ক্ষতিকর). We should take exercise regularly at the right time and duration. We have to remember that over-exercise is injurious (ক্ষতিকর) to health and irregular exercise makes us weak and tired.
Health is wealth. Every sort of happiness depends on it. This health can be preserved by regular exercise. It gives us a feeling of joy and cheerfulness (প্রফুল্লতা). It also strengthens (শক্তিশালী করা) our brain. Therefore, we should be careful to take physical exercise regularly.
