I love fitness and all the activities that you can do to keep yourself fit. In my opinion everyone should follow a good daily diet and do a lot of sport to be healthier. I go to the gym four times a week and I’m very careful of what I eat. I usually follow a daily diet: I don’t eat many sweets, only for breakfast or before going to the gym to give some energy to my body. I take carbohydrates for lunch and I drink about two litres of water everyday. Hydratation is essential to keep fit. But sometimes I fall into temptation bending the rules and eating what I want when I want. And when it happens I feel extremely guilty about it and I immediately do some exercise. My friends are less healthier than me. One of them goes to dancing lessons four times a week but she doesn’t follow any kind of diet. She eats everything because she loves food especially junk food. The other friend does dance too but she goes once a week and she eats everything, but she also drinks a lot of water everday. In spite of all everyone should improve himself because our body is like a machine, something that has to be respected and if we take care of it we’ll live better.

Many times we hear people talking about lifestyles but what about teenagers?                                                                          Some recent studies have shown that people between 14 and 18 try to keep themselves fit, generally playing sports or just going to the gym, but these studies have also revealed that these boys and girls don’t put the same dedication in diet.                                                                                                                                                                            We asked some question to a group of four teenagers noticing that all of them work out and train more or less an average of four hours a week but only one of them has a balanced diet.                                                                                      This diet consists in eating healthy food during the  meals (abstaining from junk food) and most important thing, drinking at least 2 litres of water a day.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           The other three interviewed don’t follow a specific diet: they eat more or less everything with no restrictions.

Obviously if we tried to consider a bigger group to study, we would probably have some variations in the final conclusion; but after all I think that the most important thing is to feel good with ourselves and it doesn’t matter if we eat something unhealthy. The important is to regulate and control our lifestyle not exaggerating.

Last month in class, I interviewed Ginevra, Aurora and Chiara  about their daily diet and their phisical activities.
Ginevra practices artistic gymnastic 3 times a week, she eats sensibly in fact she has an healthy diet with lot of vegetables and fruits moreover she drinks a lot of water. However during the break she eats snacks or sweets, so she decided to eliminate high calories food to improve her diet.
Chiara tries to be fit by swimming 2 or 3 hours a week but unfortunately she is intolerant to certain food like tomatoes and milk products. Despise that she has an healthy diet.
On the contrary Aurora doesn’t practice any sports because she doesn’t like them moreover she has an unhealthy diet in fact she eats only junk food. Nevertheless she is very skinny because she has a good metabolism.

Personally I play basketball 8 hours a week, but I don’t eat well because I don't like vegetables and fruits. However I want to change my daily diet, to be fitter, because I don't like my physical appearance.

Therefore I think that it is very important to combine a balanced diet and daily fitness to live in wellness. In my opinion a perfect diet is composed of vegetables, fruit, fish and meat which are distributed in a fair weekly.

 

 

Nowdays  an healthy lifestyle is essencial. Doing sports and eating well is just a side of it, being healthy is also link to relax and self-improuvement.

I think that the majority of teenagers do a lot of sports but it is not enough to consider their lifestyle healthy .

Personally I think that I have a quite good lifestyle even if I know that it can be improve. My diet is varied: I eat a lots of fruits and vegetables, but  unfortunately I can’t resist pasta, moreover I drink a lot. I don’t do a lot of sports. I ask at three of my classmate if their lifestyle is healthy and  Chiara  told me that she goes four times a week to the gym for two hours and she follows a diet. Ginevra does artistic gymnastics three times a week for two hours, she cares about her diet so she try to have a varied one . Aurora doesn’t do sports because she doesn’t like it. Her diet is quite good she doesn’t eat fruits, she eats few vegetables and a lot of sushi and she drinks a lot of water.

In the end I think that everyone should have an healthy lifestyle but sometimes we need to treat ourselves because health is essencial but,  sometime, being happy is better. 

My friend Giorgia practices volley and Daniele likes swimming.

They do lots of movement instead Rachele had to leave volley for a knee problem and now she does not practice any activity.

Sport is important for our body and also for our physical health, sport’ exercises are good for us, with sport we can have more freedom and cheerfulness.

If we want to obtain good results we must also follow a healthy diet.

I eat everything but few vegetables and fruits, I know that is a problem because our body needs these elements. Giorgia is more regular, she eats everything, also Daniele eats everything and lots of fruit and carbohydrates. Instead Rachele doesn’t like white meat. The diet is important, we can learn to eat better to have a right balance!

I think I haven’t a healthy diet but I do volleyball twice a week for four hours.

I think so because I eat everything meat, fish, vegetables but mostly sweets and this is the reason why I am like this…

Francesca, a friend of mine, goes to the gym twice a week but she doesn’t eat vegetables and fruit because she doesn’t like these ingredients.

Another friend of mine is Rachele, she did volleyball but for same health reasons now she doesn’t do anything.

Fortunately, she has a balanced nutrition because she eats everything except white meat.

Daniele swims but I don’t know how many hours he does it. He eats mostly carbohydrates, like pasta.

To sum up we have more or less a healthy life, but we should eat more vegetables and fruits instead of sweets and we have to do more exercises.
