Pickleball Is Your Best Friend
Pickleball Is Your Best Friend
Hello. I’m Dr. Richard Jacoby, a specialist in peripheral nerve surgery with a keen interest in how lifestyle choices affect our health. In my book Sugar Crush, I delve into the adverse effects of sugar on our bodies and how to counteract them. Since navigating my eighties, I’ve been looking for gentle yet effective ways to stay fit.
Enter pickleball, a sport I’ve grown fond of for its simplicity and health benefits. Imagine a sport that blends the quick pace of table tennis with the strategic play of tennis yet is far gentler on the body. That’s pickleball for you. Its appeal lies in sharpening hand-eye coordination, fostering social connections, and providing a hearty dose of outdoor activity.
Why am I such a proponent of pickleball?
Beyond being a low-stress option for older individuals, it offers a dynamic environment for improving cardiovascular health through short, repeated sprints. This activity is great for muscle retention and overall fitness, not to mention it’s a fun way to keep extra pounds at bay when paired with a healthy diet.
But the benefits of pickleball aren’t just physical. It’s a social sport that brings people together, offering laughter and camaraderie alongside the workout. Think of it as a healthy addiction that rivals the sweetness of sugar—minus the detrimental health impacts.
I believe pickleball is a sport that everyone, regardless of age, should try. It encapsulates an engaging, healthy lifestyle choice that’s both enjoyable and beneficial.
