realbuzz.com Gets you Started in Sport

LONDON - Having revelled in the English Victory in the Ashes at the weekend, the Gold Medals we’ve won in Berlin recently, and the upcoming 2012 Olympics, have you been inspired to take up a new sport, or revive an old sporting interest?

Or it might be that your interest in sport has been rekindled as you want to get back to a level of fitness you had before or reach a new one. Well, realbuzz.com is here to help you get inspired again, and get you back into a healthy active lifestyle. We’ve come up with reasons why you should get involved in sport, be it golf, swimming, running, cycling or even trying something new.

But before we start, remember the golden rule in the outset; sport is accessible to all regardless of ability!

Playing Sport regardless of age - Most sports are open to all regardless of age, okay, we’re not going to kid ourselves that a more ‘mature’ person can compete against a younger fitter person, but it’s not always about competition. If you are younger try everything once, you don’t want to get to a certain age, and think ‘I wish I had started that earlier’. If you’re of a more mature age, just give it a go. There is nothing to lose!

Play for the love of sport - Here at realbuzz.com we’re passionate about participation in sport, and know that once you give it a go, and find a level and choice of sport that agrees with you, we know that you’ll participate for the love!

Degree of fitness - To start a new sport or new fitness regime can be really daunting, especially if you’ve been out of the game for a while! Don’t worry if you are not particularly fit or are carrying excess weight. If your goal is to get fit, then you will get there provided you show the right dedication and find a motivation. Everyone has to start somewhere, and remember that even the most sculpted Adonis did at some point!

Accessibility of sports - Many sports are accessible to all. You need only look at the success of the Paralympic Games to see that a disability is not a bar to getting involved.

Cost of starting out in a sport - Some sports will cost a bit to get involved, golf, horse riding, sailing for example. But only if you want to buy all the kit as an initial outlay, you can hire to see if the sport is for you. There are many initiatives, particularly for the young where subsidised sessions make it possible to have a go without having to shell out for any equipment.

The final realbuzz word on getting started in sport - There is a sport out there for all of us; the only thing stopping you having a go is you! Try to think what your goals are - whether it’s to improve fitness, aiming for competitions, gaining competence in sport, or just enjoying yourself.

Being involved in sport will not only improve your health, but will also make you feel better about yourself, and bring you in contact with people and ensure that you live a healthy, active lifestyle. www.realbuzz.com/articles/sport-for-all/
