The Importance Of Social Support And Encouragement Is That It Provides Motivation.
The importance of social support and encouragement is that it provides motivation. There is science behind the positives of working out in a community. The scientific name is the Kohler effect (*). In addition to the Kohler effect, there is the added benefit of increased levels of endorphins which occur in a group exercise setting. We know from experience that exercising in groups is good for people at many levels, it’s motivational, it’s social -Carole Seheult, British Psychological Society.
It has long been known that physical exertion releases endorphins which are responsible for the sometimes euphoric sensation experienced after exercising. This endorphin release has a protective effect against pain. Researchers from Oxford University’s Institute of Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology found that this response was heightened by the synergistic effect of exercising together, compared with a similar training regime carried out alone. This heightened effect from the synchronized activity may explain the sense of euphoria experienced during other social activities, such as laughter, music-making, and dancing (**).
At CrossFit Damacor we add a little more of this euphoric sensation. Chill, laugh, listen to good music from our life DJ, recover from the WOD, drink a recovery drink, and socialize. The sense of community, social support, and encouragement is what drives you to come to the box, gets you through
