Streetwise English

SWE 101 My VR headset controller broke

There's an old English saying that goes: "Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise."

But according to a recent study, "late to bed and late to rise" may actually be better for your brain — though researchers didn't check if it does anything for your health or your wallet.

A study published in BMJ Public Health looked at data from nearly 27,000 people who reported how long they slept, and whether they were a "morning lark" — someone who wakes up early — or a "night owl," who sleeps late.

The participants, aged between 53 and 86, also did cognitive tests that checked their reasoning, memory, and how quickly they could process information.

It was found that night owls performed best on the cognitive tests — ahead of those who described themselves as neither morning people nor night people. And morning larks had the lowest cognitive scores of all.

People's bodies have times when they naturally prefer to sleep. And Raha West of Imperial College London, the study's lead author, said that while it's possible to gradually shift your sleeping times, it's very difficult to completely change from a morning person to a night person.

However, she also said the results just show the trend, and not the truth for every individual.

The authors also noted that their results, which focused on older adults, contrasted with past research on adolescents, which found that young morning larks actually had better health and better mental well-being.

Speaking to The Guardian, Jacqui-Ann Hanley of Alzheimer’s Research UK, who wasn't involved with the study, also said it isn't clear if being a morning person leads to poorer cognitive results in older adults, or if the weaker cognitive abilities that come with aging just make people get up earlier.

The study also found that people generally got better cognitive scores if they reported sleeping between seven and nine hours each night.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

この前話した冬の運動の話の続きです。
北海道では、1月2月3月と雪がたくさん降ります。
ぼくはランニングをするのが好きですが、今の時期はさすがに走っていません。走ることはできますが、雪が道路に残っているので、すべりそうで怖いです。なので走っていません。とはいえ、何もしなければどんどん体重は増えるばかりなので、他の運動をしたいと思っていろいろと考えていました。

結果、自宅でエアロバイクをレンタルする、ということにしました。それで、今日、そのエアロバイクが届きました。組み立てて、使ってみました。一応、負荷を変えられるようになっているので、いろいろ変えてみましたが、最大の負荷にしても、そんなに重くなりませんでした。でも、長い時間走っているとそれなりに筋肉は使うので、何もしないよりは全然良いなと思いました。

ちょっと続けて使ってみないと効果があるかはわかりませんが、家の中で安全な環境で、YouTube見たり、Duolingoで言語学習をしたりしながら、運動ができると思うとめっちゃ良いなと思います。

これをきっかけに最近できていなかった運動をがんばろうと思います！

みなさんは自宅で何かトレーニングとかしてますか？
続けるためのコツとかありますか？
そんな話をオンラインレッスンで話しましょう！
お待ちしていますね！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
