In the last session, Councilor Tomás Buffa presented a project to declare physical activity an essential activity in the city.
This is mainly due to the benefits it provides. An adequate level of regular physical activity in adults reduces the risk of hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, breast and colon cancer, depression and falls, improves bone and functional health, and is a key determinant of energy expenditure , and therefore essential for caloric balance and weight control.
Likewise, the project clarifies: “we demand that the providers of” Services for Sports practice “be incorporated, among which physical conditioning services (gyms, among others), management of sports practices in clubs and others are included. sports facilities, etc., for being important health agents ”. That is to say, in the event of a regrowth or a possible new quarantine, with this project, physical activity would be allowed as it would become essential.
