POLITICS OF SPORT

I think it's important to talk about the politics of sport. In Mexico really seems nonexistent.

In Mexico there has been various institutions in charge of sport, focused on education of students. The July 1, 1951 began operating the National Institute of Mexican Youth (INJM).

In December 1988, by decree disappears CREA and the National Sports Commission (CONADE) is created.

But reality has not helped the creation of these institutions or even reduce them in the budget Michoacán them disappear, it is obvious that at all levels, in all ages, the lack of polical sport in the country has affected the entire society and is killing people.

Mexico is a country of obese, most people is the only sport that is watching football on television, people have no awareness of the importance of sport in his life. No policies being told that exercising is vital since childhood until old man are not in vain we have so many obese children.

I agree that soft drinks, large quantities of junk food have contributed to obesity, but most people do not exercise does not realize verify rations of food, type of food, etc.

Life expectancy in Mexico has decreased or has not advanced in recent years by obesity, then it is important to create real sport policies, for all levels, for all ages.

A sport for that part of your life! Let's start the year right! It's for your own good.

More next time!!
