Theories on AppetiteWhat drives the human body to ingest food ?
There are various theories about this, all of them with a greater or lesser scientific base. The most thoroughly researched of them is the relationship between the feeling of hunger & the blood sugar level. The further the blood sugar level falls, the stronger the feeling of hunger. But the degree of expansion of the stomach is also considered to be a stimulus for food intake. The set-point theory provides another point of view : it holds that stored in each individual's genes is a specific ideal weight & therefore a specific level for fatty tissue.
If the stored weight is under-achieved or over-achieved to any marked degree, the brain manages food intake so as to achieve it. However, research on twins has brought the results of this theory into question,
as it can be proved that one twin can be overweight & the other slim, although they both carry the same genes. It is also assumed that there is a relationship between food intake & the levels of amino acids stored in our body.
It is presumably a combination of the 4 factors (stomach content, blood sugar, amino acid levels + the set-point) which control the internal stimulus to ingest food. By chewing for long enough it is possible, through a reverse mechanism in the brain, to achieve a feeling of repletion. However, this only occurs after about twenty minutes of chewing.
If u think about ur favourite food, it becomes clear that ingesting food is not controlled only by ur body's need for nourishment. There is also a multitude of external influences such as appetite, enjoyment, boredom, frustration, solitude, irritation, sociability, etc. If all these external influences did not exist, food science would be superfluous, as the human organism, controlled by internal stimuli, would ingest only the best combination of food. If all the food we needed were available, food intake would be halted when the internal stimulus cut out. Without social & psychological influences, availability of all the necessary foodstuffs would be mean that both under-eating & over-eating would be impossible.
pretty Foon & lovely Angie, face here pls ....... =)
The perfect training session :-
1. warm-up
2. strength training
3. endurance training
4. mobility training
5. cool down
6. regenerative measures
morning Ben, u look so happy ^^
try 2 hold ur ankle ~
although she is junior in our class, but she is so soft ~
Warm-up
The frequently neglected but nevertheless extremely important warm-up prepares our body for the exercise to come & helps it to perform without the danger of injury.
The following advantages are attributed mainly to warm-up.
>> general improvement of performance potential
>> improved physiological performance potential
>> improvement of physical coordination
>> reduction of injury danger
However, warm-up is not simply warming up. It can be divided into 3 phases :-
1. general warm-up
2. individual warm-up
3. special warm-up
The benefits of Upavistha Konasana (Wide Seated Forward Bend Pose)
>> stretches the abductor muscles of our groin.
>> stretches our hamstring muscles.
>> strengthens the supportive musculature of our spine.
>> encourages activation of our core muscles.
>> traditionally thought to increase blood flow to our pelvis, thus keeping the pelvic region healthy.
Methods of Stretching
For fitness-minded sports enthusiasts, 3 common methods of stretching can be derived from the aforementioned stretch reflexes. Bouncing dynamic stretch is here deliberately ignored. Although it occasionally makes its comeback in competitive sports, it is not to be recommended as a leisure &
fitness activity as it is hard to control & therefore carries the danger of potential injury.
1. Active, static stretch - for example, reaching backwards with the arm at shoulder height, employing
the force of the back muscles to stretch the chest muscles - takes advantage of the relaxation of the
antagonists. The final position is held for 10 - 15 seconds, while breathing steadily.

脑部休息不可或缺的生理机能 ~ 睡眠
睡眠的功能
*人体内具有一个生物钟,使身体有规律性的在白天活动,夜晚休息。
*为了休息所进行的睡眠,是维持生命不可或缺的生理机能。
*大脑皮质在清醒的时候不停的工作,处理大量的资料调节体内各器官的机能。
*要进行如此高层次的脑部活动,必须要定期的让脑部休息。
*不过,脑部并没有在睡眠期间停止活动,而是在贮存记忆。
*睡眠对身体具有非常重要的功能。睡眠期间,身体会分泌大量的成长荷尔蒙;
对促进孩童成长,伤口愈合,新成代谢有非常重要的帮助。
