What should I do if I get injured while exercising?

Nowadays, under the strong advocacy of the country, people have begun to exercise, and some people have even developed a deep affection for sports. Many people are trying various kinds of exercise, hoping to make their bodies healthier. But many people are very careless and get hurt while exercising. So, how should you deal with injuries during exercise? Below is some information compiled by the editor.

1. Do the warm-up activities carefully. Special warm-up exercises should be done for the parts that are under greater pressure and prone to injury during training. The time between the end of warm-up and the start of training should not exceed four minutes. When the interval time is too long or when changing to train other parts of the body, special warm-up exercises should be done.

2. Do a good job of relaxation and organization. Some stretching and relaxation exercises must be done after training to speed up the recovery of the exercised parts. For example, after doing deadlifts and squats, you can hang on the horizontal bar and do exercises such as raising your knees and lowering them or swinging your legs left and right to restore your spine to its original functional state.

3. Know when to stop when training with heavy weights. If you are not sure about using heavy weights, it is best to ask someone for help. Don't use leverage training often. Don't do the movements too quickly or suddenly. When you practice again after a long interval, you should reduce the weight and intensity.

4. Strengthen medical supervision and safety inspections of training venues. It is best for those who regularly do bodybuilding to have regular physical examinations, and to undergo additional examinations when participating in competitions, so as to detect hidden dangers early and take measures.

5. Pay attention to your body's warning signals. Fatigue, anxiety, long-term and intermittent muscle soreness and pain are warning signals from your body. If ignored, minor injuries may turn into major injuries. Soft tissue injuries generally recover slowly. If not handled properly, they can cause chronic injuries at the very least, or leave varying degrees of functional impairment at the worst.

6. Carefully summarize the experience of injury prevention. We must recognize the causes of injury accidents and find out the patterns of their occurrence so as to better prevent them.

The above is a detailed introduction on how people should deal with injuries if they accidentally get injured during exercise. Before exercising, people should do appropriate warm-up exercises, but they should not do warm-up exercises too early, otherwise the effect will not be obvious. You should also pay attention to replenishing water after exercise, but you should not drink water in large gulps.
