This is an argument that can motivate more than one to do physical exercises. Sport would be a powerful anti-aging “for the outside and inside (of the body), the skin, the head …”, promises Anouk Garnier, columnist on the show Well done for you. At the microphone of Mélanie Gomez and Julia Vignali, the coach explains how a recurring practice of physical activity brings a natural rejuvenating effect to our body.
Proper functioning of organs
The sport first offers a good functioning of the organs, the digestive system, the liver, details Anouk Garnier. “It also allows us to have healthy tissues in the body. There is the effect on the cardiovascular system. It allows the blood to circulate better, and it allows us to be less out of breath when we makes the gestures of everyday life”, enumerates the trainer.
Development of “joint mobility”
If top athletes can feel pain after their career, Anouk Garnier says that a balance must be found. “We’re talking about joint mobility,” she says. “When you move with good full amplitudes, you develop this mobility and you feel less restricted in your amplitudes of movement”, underlines the coach on Europe 1.
Diffusion of proteins that make the skin firmer
“When you start moving, after five to ten minutes, something interesting will happen in the joints: the synovial fluid, or the synovium, will be secreted”, adds the trainer, who specifies that it is “oil for our joints”. “It’s only secreted when you move, so you’re ten times more likely to get osteoarthritis while sitting on your sofa than when you play sports,” she says.
For the coach, three hours of sport per week is enough to maintain a beautiful complexion through practice. “A study was done in Canada, where it was shown that 40-year-old athletes had skin that was 20 years younger than non-athletes of the same age,” she reports in Well done for you. In addition to good blood circulation, “proteins secreted in the muscles will be distributed throughout the body, which will make the skin firmer in general”, explains the coach based on this study. .
