Use age as motivation not an excuse!

Do you think badminton or any other sports like athletes have a proper age to to play,
In badminton after 28 or 30 age  players are unable to beat the young blood ,you acknowledge that with age comes decreased performance. It's the body's natural way of slowing down.If you think like that ,then sorry you are wrong this time,today i am going to tell you the secrete of winning over your age,I also have explained about age myths  in "perfect-age-to-start-badmintion"and "age matters" so come to the point,-

It is also true ,As we get older, the rate of cell division slows down and some tissues begin to perform less efficiently. There is a loss of elasticity, both in the skin and in ligaments. There is a decline in the maximum heart rate and in maximum power output ,so you some questions i mind like
-What performance should we expect at a certain age?
-What can we do to reverse the process?

Don't Worry it is hard but possible to remain at international level even after 40,with the right kind of training and nutrition ,for witness:-
-Eamonn Coghlan's sub-four-minute miles
-Al Oerter's Record in discus
-42 years old Podkopayeva 's victories at 1500 metre
-The World's best for a marathon at the age of 50 stnads 2:11
I think this is enough to tell the difference between age and endurance,dedication and motivation

Always remember three things-

1.There is no reason  to stop purely because of age ,because the age is very gradual.The perfect training and some good conditions can make you improve on last year's times.
2.One cannot train with the intensity of a young athlete because the rate of regeneration is not as fast. You have to find the intensity and the frequency of hard training that you can tolerate.
3.It will probably become necessary, if you seriously want to stay as fit and healthy as possible, to work on your weak points. Muscular strength, flexibility and mobility decline without the right exercise
Let's have a look on some unbelievable  facts-
# A 70-year-old weight-lifter is stronger than the average 30-year-old
# The 70-year-old marathon runner will easily outrun the majority of 30-year-olds.
# The ballet dancer of 70 is more flexible than the average young adult.

SO i think you have understand that  people owe their achievements not to the fact that they were outstanding when they were younger but to the fact that they have continued to practice the activity.
                    Never think that you he is better than you because he is younger and you are old,he is on the top because of his continous hard work and dedication to his game.
