New Year's Day is healthy
Although long-distance running is good, it is not suitable for everyone, and five types of people are not suitable for participation
In the fast-paced modern life, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to physical health and choose to improve their physical fitness through various ways.
Long-distance running, as a simple and effective way of exercising, is very popular with the public. However, as the old saying goes, "everything has a limit", and long-distance running, while good, is not for everyone. In particular, the following five groups of people should carefully consider whether they are suitable for long-distance running.
1. Patients with cardiopulmonary insufficiency.
Long-distance running is a high-intensity aerobic exercise that requires good cardiorespiratory support. For people with cardiopulmonary insufficiency, long-distance running may increase the burden on the heart and lungs, cause symptoms such as dyspnea, palpitations, and may even induce serious diseases such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. Therefore, such people should give preference to low-intensity, low-impact exercises, such as walking, tai chi, etc.
2. People with chronic diseases.
Patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and chronic bronchitis should carefully choose high-intensity exercise such as long-distance running. During exercise, these disorders may be stimulated to a certain extent, leading to exacerbations or acute attacks.
In addition, patients with chronic diseases should always consult their doctor in advance to ensure their safety when exercising.
3. Obese people.
Obese people have a heavier body weight and a correspondingly increased pressure on their joints. During long-distance running, the joints of obese people are repeatedly impacted and rubbed, which is easy to cause joint damage. Therefore, for obese people, low-impact, high-endurance exercise methods should be preferred, such as swimming, cycling, etc. In the process, it is also necessary to pay attention to a reasonable diet to achieve the purpose of healthy weight loss.
4. Patients with osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is a common joint disease with the main symptoms of joint pain and stiffness. During long-distance running, patients with osteoarthritis are subjected to repeated shocks and friction on their joints, which can aggravate joint inflammation and may even cause joint damage. Therefore, patients with osteoarthritis should give preference to low-impact, low-weight-bearing exercises, such as yoga and tai chi.
At the same time, patients with osteoarthritis also need to pay attention to warmth and rest to relieve the symptoms of joint pain and stiffness.
5. Pregnant women. Pregnant women have special physical conditions during pregnancy and need to pay special attention to their physical health. High-intensity exercise, such as long-distance running, may have adverse effects on the pregnant woman and the fetus, such as miscarriage, premature birth, etc. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid participating in strenuous exercises such as long-distance running during pregnancy, and can choose gentle exercise methods such as walking and yoga to exercise. At the same time, pregnant women also need to pay attention to nutrition and rest to maintain a happy mood to promote the healthy growth of the fetus.
To sum up, long-distance running, although good, is not suitable for everyone.
