Benefits of playing volleyball

Everyone knows that we still need to do some exercise in our lives. Because exercise can make our body healthier. But nowadays many people are busy with work and rarely exercise even when they are resting. So in the face of this situation, I would like to recommend a sport to everyone - volleyball. Although volleyball is a team sport, playing volleyball regularly has many benefits for our body.

1. Improve body shape and posture, and regulate spleen and kidney functions

In addition to exercising the leg muscles, the bouncing of volleyball is also a great way to exercise the buttocks muscles. Playing volleyball and jumping more can train your buttocks and make your "S" figure more prominent. It has been observed that volleyball players have the best physique among all athletes. People with poor balance can also improve their posture by playing volleyball.

2. Whether you are in a good mood or not, you can find someone to vent to protect your liver

, release stress and regulate emotions

Although volleyball is softer than basketball, some of the movements are particularly exciting: before serving, the players slap the volleyball on the ground hard, making a "bang bang" sound. When the palms hit the ball, the nerve endings in the fingers and palms quickly transmit the intense stimulation to the brain, which immediately becomes excited and releases hormones to release the soreness and swelling in the spine, arms, and wrists. After 20 consecutive hits, the moderate pressure (tight scalp) is usually released.

3. Lower blood pressure and reduce the chance of obesity

During sports, you should often do jumping and spiking movements to exercise the muscles of the thighs, waist and abdomen, so that the legs will be free of fat, the waist will be more toned, and the arms will have perfect curves. Since I have to jump frequently, I have to pay attention to controlling my food intake, otherwise, I will fall down before I even jump up!

4. Improve muscle strength, make muscles symmetrical and powerful, and promote body flexibility and coordination

The ball-catching movements in volleyball often stimulate the three yang and three yin meridians in the arms. Playing volleyball can make the nervous system more flexible, and can also have unexpected regulating effects on problems such as inattention and mental weakness. Playing ball not only exercises the body but also improves one's psychological quality. On the court, those with good psychological quality will be flexible and quick to react.

5. Promote body growth, improve jumping ability, repair spine, and improve cardiopulmonary function

The basic movements of playing volleyball are squatting and raising your head like a leopard, always ready, catching the ball, running, spiking, and defensive movements are all stretched out, which basically include the movements in Wu Qin Xi and are beneficial to the development of the spine. For middle-aged people who are prone to spinal deformities, playing volleyball regularly can self-repair the spine, reduce the pressure on the heart and lung muscles, and improve cardiopulmonary function.

6. Avoid passive damage, active damage is controllable

Because there is a net separating the two balls, the collision of the volleyballs is reduced, which greatly reduces the chance of injury and the body is less likely to be hurt. When spiking the ball, don't use brute force, but be smart. The point of impact is more lethal than force. Warm-up exercises should be done thoroughly before the game, and warm-up for at least 15 minutes before going on the court, so as to actively control injuries.

7. Make friends with like-minded people

Volleyball matches are often held, which not only exercises the body but also enhances the friendship among the players.

8. Enhance your teamwork ability and cultivate a positive and optimistic attitude towards life

There are 75 balls in three sets of volleyball matches, and 115 balls in five sets. The outcome cannot be determined by just one ball! Over time, the contestants learned to "let go" and "forget", some became able to "make fun of themselves" humorously, and learned to "tolerate, understand, and encourage" each other. When encountering difficulties, everyone worked together! Volleyball makes people free and confident.
