I have been systematically running for several years, it gives me great pleasure. How can I convince my husband to run so that he also gets to know the beauty of this sport?
It is worth doing a lot to convince your husband to spend his free time actively. This he althy hobby is easier to achieve together, you can motivate each other to systematic effort. Family recreation strengthens ties. How to do it? It is certainly not that simple and there is no ready-made recipe to convince your spouse to run together. Everyone is different, has different needs and interests, so the approach must be individual. You can argue convincingly in two different ways. The first - negative he alth arguments - example: if you do not get involved in running, you are at risk of obesity and numerous civilization diseases, you will age faster. The second way is positive he alth argumentation - an example: if you run systematically, you have a chance for a better, he althier life, you will live longer and you will be fit and independent for the rest of your life, your everyday well-being and even brain function will improve.
