In this article we will talk to you about sports, but not about how to do exercises or eat correctly so that our body has an attractive shape, but about what famous people say about this activity.

Sports in our life

Each of us in our lives has probably made the decision more than once to start doing or going for a run, and some have even implemented such plans. Unfortunately, even fewer people give sports a truly significant place in their lives. I would like to talk about what sayings there are about the sport of great people and what they mean. Perhaps, after we understand the deep meaning that lies in in simple words, for someone this will give them the opportunity to look at their life outside of sports with different eyes, and they will make the right choice.

What does sport give us?

In general, we have been familiar with the benefits of playing sports since childhood, because in early age caring mothers tried to send their children to sports clubs or various dance and gymnastics clubs. After all, boys kick the ball around the football field with great pleasure, and girls jump with skipping ropes and ribbons. Probably, already at this age they need to be introduced to the benefits of an active lifestyle and talk about sports spoken by their favorite athletes and idols.

Few active children are familiar with the concept of “diet,” which cannot be said about adults who are always busy in the daily bustle. With a problem excess weight every third or even second inhabitant of the planet over 30 years of age faces, and all because the so-called depression and tension state of mind we prefer to shoot with alcohol or a portion of our favorite and obviously unhealthy dish.

The best medicine

“A thousand medicines can be replaced by physical exercise, but there is no medicine that can replace exercise,” said the Italian physiologist Angelo Mosso. There is nothing to add here, indeed, how many human diseases can be avoided if even for people who have had a heart attack, doctors recommend walking every evening fresh air. It is necessary not only to know such statements about sports, but to write them on a piece of paper and hang them in a visible place, so that every day, before opening the refrigerator or brushing our teeth, we read and remember that “movement is life, and life is there is movement." This is exactly what the old but wise saying says. Remind you of what it can lead to sedentary lifestyle life, is hardly worth it, because, hand on heart, we all know perfectly well that there is nothing good in sedentary work No. Result - varicose veins veins, intestinal problems, disruption of the cardiovascular system. The list goes on and on.

Statements on sports topics in literature

To confirm all of the above, here is another statement on the topic of sports. "Thanks to abstinence and physical exercise humanity can live without medicine,” these words belong to the famous writer, playwright, poet, politician of the 18th century and simply to a wise man Addison Joseph.

However, even in ancient times BC. e. Horace said wonderful words, fraught with more than understandable truths: “If you don’t run while you’re healthy, you’ll have to run when you’re sick!” And this is actually true: analyze life situations, which you have probably encountered. Only when it becomes unbearable for us to endure pain or discomfort in the body, we turn to doctors, and they begin to refer us to various studies and procedures. In such situations, we are ready to spend any money if only we would be cured and we could return to our normal life again.

In fact, a lot of words have been said about sports famous poets and writers, the great A.S. Pushkin and everyone’s beloved Vladimir Vysotsky did not shy away from this topic.

Athletes about sports

Perhaps more convincing for you will be statements about sports belonging to the athletes themselves, who are familiar with this situation, so to speak, from the inside. They don’t talk about health, because for them sports and health are one whole, and they have already made a choice long ago, but they share their thoughts on how to achieve goals and cope with difficulties that arise on the way to achieving great heights.

Mike Tyson said: “As long as we are persistent and persistent, we can achieve all our desires.”

And the words of the world famous basketball player Michael Jordan can be a wonderful support: “I suffer defeats day after day. And that’s why I’m a champion!”

“Victory does not teach the way defeat can teach”; "Exercise is the cure for bad mood"; “The horizontal bar is one of the best equipment for creating an ideal physique”; “Train with those who are stronger. Love the one you can't. Don’t give up where others give up” - none of this is easy beautiful sayings about sports, these are the words that you should repeat to yourself like a mantra if you decide to take care of your health.

I would like to conclude my discussion on the topic of sports with the words of the laureate Nobel Prize John Galsworthy: “The saving force in our world is sport: optimism still rises above it, the enemy is respected and the rules are followed, regardless of whose side wins.”

They are so different, but they all contain the same meaning: “Sport is our everything.”

“When it’s hard for me, I always remind myself that if I give up, it won’t get better,” said world boxing legend Mike Tyson. We have selected the most motivating statements from famous Russian and foreign athletes so that you never give up.

Mike Tyson

If a person gets up after falling, it's not physics, it's character.

From the age of ten, Mike Tyson helped his older comrades steal, and suffered beatings at home. Mike decided to become a boxer when he was 13, and won his first victory in the ring at 15.

Without discipline you are nothing! Someday you'll meet a tough guy who can take your best hits. And he will continue to advance because he is strong. Do not lose your fortitude and courage. This is the time when discipline comes into play.

Tyson will face problems with the law, he will be treated for alcohol and drug addiction. Nevertheless, “Iron Mike” would become one of the most famous boxers in the world and set several world records.

The coach always told me: “You have to beat everyone, you are able to do it, but what happens when they beat you, can you handle it?” And I know I can.

Muhammad Ali

The impossible is nothing.

Cassius Clay, better known as Muhammad Ali, in his first Olympic Games flew wearing a parachute - the future superhero suffered from aerophobia and refused to board a plane without “safety net.” Then there was an Olympic gold medal and three world heavyweight titles.

The most difficult fight is when you have to fight laziness for happiness.

Ali was a pacifist who refused to join the army, he advocated for the rights of African Americans and threw his Olympic medal into the river after a waitress refused to serve him a glass of water because of the color of his skin. He is an idol of several generations and the author of the famous phrase “the impossible is possible,” which in the original sounds even more precisely: “the impossible is nothing.”

Champions do not become gyms. A champion is born from what is inside a person - desires, dreams, goals.

Lev Yashin

Anyone who wants to achieve convincing victories must try to jump above his head

Olympic champion and World Cup bronze medalist Lev Yashin was the only goalkeeper to ever receive the Golden Ball, a prize awarded annually to the best European football player. This man knew what it meant to not give up. When at the very beginning of Yashin’s career, football didn’t work out, he didn’t leave the sport, switched to hockey and even achieved serious success there - he won the USSR Cup.

Any, even the happiest finish is only a precursor to the next start, and past victories, no matter how significant they may be, do not provide any additional privileges.

Pele

The more difficult the victory was, the more happy you are that you achieved it.

Pele (real name Edson Arantis do Nascimento), from a simple Brazilian boy who worked as a boot shiner, grew up in best football player XX century. His nickname - the nickname Pele was given to him by one of his friends as a child - turned into a name known to everyone. He won three World Cups and received the unofficial title of King of Football.

Success is not an accident. It's about hard work, perseverance, training, study, sacrifice and most of all, loving what you do or are learning to do.

Larisa Latynina

Teach an athlete to fight to the end for any place, and he will be able to fight for first.

Gymnast Larisa Latynina has nine gold, five silver and four bronze Olympic medals. Her name is included in the Guinness Book of Records and in the list of outstanding athletes that adorns the Olympic Hall of Fame in New York.

Never think that you have lost a competition if you still have one last exercise left.

Latynina became the world champion while she was four weeks pregnant. And two months later she returned to the sport again.

One day, while performing a difficult jump on a log, I landed on top of it and broke my tailbone. As a result, I couldn’t sit for a month and stood against the wall during lectures at the institute. But I didn't cry. You can cry from pain, resentment, even from fatigue, but I never cried - neither in training nor in competitions.

On topic:

Michael Jordan

I can accept failure, but I cannot accept not trying.

The most famous basketball player on the planet, Michael Jordan, knows how to achieve his goals. He is a two-time Olympic champion, a six-time champion of the coolest basketball league - the NBA and one of the richest athletes.

If anything moves me forward, it is only my weakness, which I hate and turn into my strength.

Jordan managed not only to become one of the most popular athletes and turn his name into a brand, but also to earn a fortune. Forbes magazine estimated his 2015 income at $110 million.

When you go towards your goal, an obstacle stands in your way. I have encountered them, everyone has encountered them. But don't let obstacles stop you. When faced with a wall, do not turn back, do not retreat. Find a way to overcome this barrier, work on it.

Kostya Tszyu

Even difficulties in life are needed for something.

When in an interview with the absolute world boxing champion Kostya Tszyu was asked about his life credo, he replied that his motto is “never give up.” In life, an athlete who has won 270 out of 282 fights prefers not to use force. But in training and in the ring he gives it his all.

Someone says that I am talented, my greatest talent was that I could work more than others. Plow.

Tszyu believes that failures can teach you a lot. If you can handle them.

A lost fight always makes you realize that you are doing something wrong.

Greetings to all my readers.
