Exercise has become a part of people's lives. More and more people exercise every day, whether it is a simple walk after a meal or their favorite running and swimming.

In this case, they need to find some aerobic exercises suitable for indoors. Here are some aerobic exercises that you can do indoors.

Sit flat and reach forward

Take off your shoes and socks, sit on the floor, stretch your legs forward, close together, heels 13 cm apart, press the soles of your feet against the wall, stretch your hands forward, and try to touch the wall. Note: Do not bend your knees, do not use too much force, and relax your muscles as much as possible. Continue for 5 seconds. This set of movements can exercise the flexibility of the spine, hips and legs. Helps prevent back and leg injuries.

3 minutes of stepping

Place a small stool or a bundle of newspapers on the floor, about 30 cm high. First, step your right foot on the stool and your left foot on the ground. Then switch positions of both feet at the same time - left foot on the stool and right foot on the ground. Alternate this process 24 times per minute. This method can train the heart to respond to sustained activity and reduce the risk of heart damage.

Lunge

Keeping your hands on the ground, extend one leg back into a lunge; then place your hands on your hips, straighten your torso, and do 5 lunge movements, pressing down and up (don't switch legs - do the same 5 times with the other leg).

push-up

This movement is different for men and women. Women and children under 10 years old should kneel on the ground with their calves raised, keep their head to knees straight, stretch out their palms with fingers facing forward, and support themselves on the ground below their shoulders, with their palms as wide as shoulders. Then touch the ground with your chest, and then use your arms to push up until your arms are straight. The movements for men and children over 10 years old are basically the same, except that the knees must be off the ground, the entire torso must be in a straight line, and the toes must be on the ground. This movement can exercise the strength and endurance of the upper limbs, shoulders and chest muscles, which is helpful for maintaining a good posture and avoiding hunching and hunching.
