In my opinion, sports help in leading a healthy lifestyle in many ways on many different levels. A serious athlete may improve their diet and supplement regiment in order to improve physical endurance, and allow them to break through barriers allowing them to achieve new personal records. The drive to do so leads to researching and gaining an understanding of the human body and its needs, further developing ones self awareness. Similarly, sports may mimic life in the sense that you may be trampled, humiliated, beat, etc. causing one to push harder, and developing a much stronger mental health. Despite failures, one may persevere in hopes of becoming victorious; If one were to get a C on a test, or miss a sales quota, this mentality, developed by playing sports, could carry over and allow an individual to study harder, or push more sales, respectively.
Every sport involves failure, effort and conquest. If an athlete is determined and can see that any sport can be made into an analogy for life, then they will certainly have a more meaningful understanding of what life is and what it contains. Not to say that non-athletes have a lesser understanding, but rather a different way of interpreting it. I personally have wrestled, done track, jiu-jitsu and crew. And for all of them a life's lesson may be learned. In Wrestling, if you get taken down, you better fight to get up and even the score. If you get beat, go to practice the next day, asses your mistakes, and improve your technique. If you lost a race in track by .3 seconds, asses your weakness: was it a delayed reaction off the block, poor diet the following days, or do you simply need to improve your physical fitness, then work on it. In life, where you fail: Why did you fail? Asses, and improve.
The physical and mental developments made in a sport very much cross over into the game of life. It is however, Dependant upon the athlete in interpreting how this applies to them. If you fail: asses, and improve.
