What is the role of physical exercise prescription?

Physical exercise prescription was first proposed in the United States. Its main concept is to formulate specific exercise types and intensities as well as precautions during exercise in the form of prescriptions based on the patient's health and physical condition. This method can enhance the body's immunity through physical exercise. So what is the role of physical exercise prescription? Let us introduce it to you in detail.

Exercise prescription is different from ordinary physical exercise and general treatment methods. Exercise prescription is a highly targeted, purposeful, selective and controlled exercise therapy. The physiological effects of exercise prescription mainly include the following aspects.

1. Effects of exercise prescription on the cardiovascular system

The exercise prescription mainly adopts moderate-intensity endurance exercise dominated by aerobic metabolism, that is, aerobic exercise. Under normal circumstances, aerobic exercise has a significant effect on enhancing the oxygen delivery capacity of the cardiovascular system, the clearance of metabolic products, regulating the oxygen uptake capacity of working muscles, and the ability of tissues to utilize oxygen. Exercising according to the exercise prescription can slow down the heart rate, stabilize blood pressure, increase cardiac output, and enhance the compensatory capacity of the cardiovascular system. However, be careful if you have heart disease, such as congenital aortic valve stenosis which is common in children. You may get tired easily after exercise and your aerobic exercise capacity may be reduced. If you force yourself to exercise, you may experience fainting, chest pain, and in some cases even sudden death.

2. Effects of exercise prescription on the respiratory system

Implementing exercise prescription can enhance the ventilation and oxygen uptake capacity of the respiratory system and improve the functional state of the respiratory system.

3. Effects of exercise prescription on the motor system

Implementing exercise prescriptions can enhance muscle strength, muscle endurance and muscle coordination, maintain and restore the range of motion of joints, promote bone growth, stimulate proprioceptors, preserve motor conditioned reflexes, promote blood and lymph circulation in the musculoskeletal system, eliminate swelling and pain, etc.

4. Effects of exercise prescription on the digestive system

Implementing exercise prescriptions can promote the function of the digestive system, enhance the absorption and utilization of nutrients, increase appetite, promote bile synthesis and excretion, reduce the occurrence of cholelithiasis, promote gastrointestinal motility, and prevent and treat constipation and other diseases.

5. Effects of exercise prescription on the nervous system

Implementing exercise prescriptions can enhance the excitatory or inhibitory abilities of the central nervous system, improve the regulatory functions of the cerebral cortex and neuro-humoral systems, and enhance the nervous system's ability to regulate the functions of various organs and systems.

(VI) Effect on body fat

Implementing an exercise prescription with long exercise time and moderate exercise intensity can effectively reduce fat tissue and achieve the purpose of disease prevention and bodybuilding.

7. Effect of exercise prescription on compensatory function

When limb function is lost due to various injuries and illnesses, the human body produces various compensatory functions to make up for the lost function. Some compensatory functions can form spontaneously. For example, after one kidney is removed, the body's excretion function is borne by the contralateral kidney. Some compensatory functions require guided training or hard training to produce the required functions. For example: after a limb is amputated, the healthy limb is used to replace the function of the affected limb. Exercise prescription plays an important role in promoting the establishment of compensatory function.

8. The psychological effect of exercise prescription on people

Exercise can effectively release repressed emotions, enhance psychological endurance, and maintain psychological balance. During the treatment and rehabilitation process of the disease, it can enhance the patient's confidence in treatment and rehabilitation and help the recovery of the disease; exercising according to the exercise prescriptions for prevention, fitness, and bodybuilding can maintain a good mood and make work and study more positive and easier.

This is all we have to say about the role of physical exercise prescriptions. It can be seen that this method of physical exercise prescriptions is very effective for our body. It has a good effect on the cardiovascular and digestive systems, and can also help lose weight and promote mental health development.
