The situation has changed considerably in recent years; however, it varies according to the culture and possibilities of each coun- try. In Colombia, for example, women are bosses in four of every 10 homes, according to figures provided by the DANE (2018). Because of the education received at home, because of their environment, because of the behavior of men and women around them, there are still many men who oppose this idea, and more so if it is a matter of giving them all the responsibility of the household. “Some see staying at home to do the dishes or take care of the children as an act of disability. They see it as a loss of the image or idea of masculinity that they have,” explains Rosa Guevara. “Many are not ready for this reality; we have a long way to go in terms of education.” She also adds that if this complicity, understanding, and good communica- tion does not exist between the couple, this situation can become a daily reason for arguments and cause intra-family con- flicts. “There is no magic formula for avoiding this. Learning, understanding, patience, and recognition of the other are the most important things,” emphasi- zes the psychologist. 53
WITH YOUR WORLD ( )for her THREE IDEAS FOR A BALANCED HOME 2 1 Identify each person’s strengths, likes, and abilities to establish roles and tasks at home. “My own experience taught me that. For example, I have two children and I never got up in the morning for them to be that kind of self-sacrificing mom. On the other hand, my husband loves it and was very good at it,” says psychologist Rosa Guevara. Agree on differences. The specialist explains that “it is possible to live together in harmony as long as we respect our differences. I cannot pretend to change the other just for my likes and needs.” 3 Communication remains a priority. Set aside times to express ideas, discomfort, or dislikes. It is also a way to reach different agreements that affect everything from the simplest things in a family dynamic to making a decision •together about who will be the provider of the home (The loss of jobs caused by the pandemic is causing new discussions about dynamics in the home, increasing the levels of stress and anxiety in the family nucleus. 54

( )WITH YOUR WORLD RIDING YOUR BIKE SAFELY Whether you are going out or training at home, it is important to follow some guidelines to avoid personal injury and reap the benefits of this activity. ADVISOR IVÁN LEONARDO DUQUE Sports physician, practitioner at Coomeva Private Healthcare T o protect yourself and others and to reduce the spread of Covid-19, adhering to the bio- safety measures and protocols established by health and government authorities is essential. Of course, this also applies when doing exercise. AT HOME 20 ► There are multiple programs, platforms, and training routines. Seg Stationary bicycles and simulators can be used. ► Programs usually have the following standard levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. If you stopped your exercise routine six weeks ago, starting as a beginner is recommended. ► Sanitize the seat and handles. ► Wash your hands before and after exercise. ► Quaternary ammonium is a practical product for disinfection that, unlike hypochlorite, does not deteriorate surfaces. ► Hydration is essential, no only when going out riding, but also when training at home. PAIN-FREE EXERCISE Sports physician Duque clarifies that it is not true that exercise must hurt in order to know it is working well, much less “break the fiber of the muscle so it heals back stronger.” The person should not be sore, “unless sedentary and starting a new routine. The first 3 or 4 days you may feel moderate soreness, which should subside,” he comments. 56
( )WWITITHHYYOOUURRWWOORRLLDD infography (At rest, air movement in the body is at a rate of 8 liters per minute. When exercising, depending on the intensity, it can reach 60-70 liters of air per minute. This is why the issue of physical distance must be expanded. WHEN GOING OUT ► Masks are essential in preventing the spread of the virus. There are designs that are more comfortable, specialized for sports, but fabric masks are also a good option. ► Masks do not affect performance or retain CO2: as soon as it comes out of the nose and mouth, it disperses quickly. ► If you are in an open field, completely away from other peop- le, it is not necessary to use a mask. If there are other indivi- duals nearby, it is mandatory, either in the field or bike paths. ► Physical distance needs to be greater, because when doing sport, you breathe more heavily. Therefore, the suggested distance is about 3 meters. It is best to stand diagonally or to one side and not in a line. ► In principle, contact between people should be avoided. Do not share thermoses, towels, helmets, or other objects. ► Remember the right clothing: helmet, comfortable clothes and shoes. Use reflective clothing if it is dark. WARM-UP AND STRETCHING Required in both cases. Hold each exercise for 20 seconds and do 4 reps on each side: 1 Calf: 2 Front thigh: 3 Hamstring: lean your arms against pull your place your heel on a chair, with a wall, bring one leg heel back, as hands and knees stretched back and let your heel it to touch out, slowly lower yourself to stretch out. the glutes. touch the toe of that foot. 57

In addition, the sugar in fruit is intrinsic, not free like the sugar we have at the table or in juice, so it is processed differently in the body. However, it is always good to check with your family doctor to find •out if there are any particular fruit recommendations for your health. 60
)CORPORATE FOSTERING TOLERANCE IS FUNDAMENTAL FOR HAVING HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS AS WELL AS A HEALTHY SOCIAL LIFE. EMPATHY The path to being empathetic with others begins with tolerance, which mainly implies respect and unders- tanding differences. OPEN-MINDED ATTITUDE Intolerance translates to fear and mistrust. That is why it is important to encourage flexibility, observation, and listening to others. TEACH TOLERANCE It is necessary to teach children at home and at school how to value and respect diversity and individuality to create tolerance. 16 NOVEMBER IS THE INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR TOLERANCE, ACCORDING TO THE UN.
