Social and health - related aspects of physical activity Foreword The physical activity of modern man is an important element of life and an essential research issue because of its social and health-related bene ts, and of the alarming consequences ensuing from the lack of the activity. The life of modern man is easier due to a number of conveniences, the consequence of which is a passive way of spending their free time, sedentary lifestyle, limitation of exercise necessary for the organism, which is a cause of many civilization-related diseases. Very often does a person forget that exercise is a physiological need of man, and the systematic physical activity determines the maintenance of good health and even its improvement. Physical activity may assume different forms, from playing that is initiated spontaneously, through everyday household activities, to competitive sports. The bene ts provided by physical activity are various. Here one can mention health-related bene ts (feeling better), esthetic bene ts (better appearance) and agonistic bene ts (the need for competition). Physical activity is conditioned by individual needs of a person, their health, age, sex, willingness to participate in all kinds of games, sports, active tourism, recreation and rehabilitation, yet it should not be considered it in terms of a free choice but as Prof. Maciej Demel said of necessity. Physical activity plays an important role in human life. In childhood, the developmental and workload-compensating functions concerning education stimulate the physical development of the organism and helps generate the physiological capital, which ensures a high level of physical tness. In the period of adolescence the workload-compensating function allows the person to maintain a proper level of motricity and delays its decline, and also guarantees psychophysical balance and is a preventive-therapeutic remedy. In the period of late adulthood the anti-involution function is essential. Physical activity improves the kinetic system (better blood supply, protection against degeneration), improves the perfusion and the ef ciency of the brain, heart, lungs and liver, stimulates the psyche (keeping an active social life, life satisfaction). At an advanced age the culture of spending free time is very important. The larger amount of their free time should be used for personal growth. Strolls, morning exercises, aerobic exercises, all improve the ef ciency of all the systems of the organism which involve the process of oxygen transportation, and allow the person to maintain a proper level of tness necessary to cope in everyday life. Which of us has never suffered from the backache? According to Prof. Osi ski as much as 60-80 percent of Poles has backbone problems. The main cause of this condition is also insuf cient physical activity. Physical activity should be promoted as a remedy for many diseases as well as a pleasurable way to attain health.
