Active Together: How Parents Can Inspire a Lifetime of Physical Fitness in Their Kids
Encouraging children to be physically active from a young age has lasting benefits that go beyond just fitness. Active children tend to grow into active adults, reducing their risk of developing chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Moreover, physical activity plays a crucial role in cognitive development, emotional well-being, and social skills. Parents can significantly influence their children's activity levels by being role models and integrating fitness into daily routines. In this Episode, Eric discusses the long-term benefits of starting physical activity at an early age and the role that parents can play in encouraging their children.
