Don't do morning exercise too early
Old people should not do morning exercises too early. Because the time is too early, the light is not clear, and the temperature is relatively low.If the elderly exercise in such an environment, it's easy to fall or catch cold, thus inducing other diseases. Especially in cold winter and early spring, we should not go out too early for exercise. And the elderly should do morning exercises after the sun rises, and pay attention to keeping warm.
The elderly should remember to replenish water before morning exercises. After a night of skin evaporation and breathing through the mouth and nose, a lot of water will be lost, resulting in increased blood viscosity, increased blood circulation resistance, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the heart and brain. Drinking a glass of water before morning exercises can increase body moisture, promote blood circulation and avoid dehydration during morning exercises.
Don't eat too much before morning exercises
It's necessary to eat something before morning exercise to prevent hypoglycemia. But don't overeat, because after a full meal, blood will be concentrated in the stomach and intestines to help digestion. If you exercise at this time, it will disperse the blood supply and affect digestion.
Avoid strenuous exercise
With the increase of age, the joints involved in sports will have varying degrees of wear and tear. Intense exercise is particularly prone to knee joint injury. Exercise is only for us to keep physical health , not for competitive competition. Morning exercises should grasp the principle of "moderation" and not be too intense, so that the body feels relaxed and smooth.
Don't sleep after morning exercises
Some elderly people may experience varying degrees of fatigue when they return home after morning exercises. Some people go on sleeping. But doing so not only affects the effect of morning exercises, but also is harmful to health. It is unfavorable for the recovery of cardiopulmonary function to go to bed immediately after morning exercise. Moreover, the metabolic products (such as lactic acid) produced by morning exercises are not easy to eliminate, but can make people feel trance and limb weakness.
