Many people like swimming because it not only exercises the respiratory function of the heart and lungs, but also helps to lose weight. Swimming in the water in the hot summer can also help you escape the heat better. But after all, water is different from land. Danger may occur at any time, and some dangers may be fatal, so you need to do warm-up exercises before swimming. So, what are the benefits of swimming warm-up exercises? 1. Raise your body temperature Increased body temperature increases the flexibility and toughness of the body's muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc., reducing the likelihood of muscle injury. 2. Prepare your cardiovascular system for exercise A proper warm-up exercise will allow the body's heart, lungs and blood vessels to gradually adapt to the state of exercise. Without a warm-up, the body will have a hard time adjusting to the demands of the exercise and people will quickly become short of breath and feel very tired. This is also in line with the principle that the amount of exercise should be gradual. 3. Increase blood flow to muscles The more blood flows to the muscles, the more oxygen and glucose the muscles need to produce energy. 4. Increase blood flow to the heart The more blood supplied to the heart, the better it helps prevent cardiovascular problems. 5. Improve muscle elasticity Make muscles more elastic and movements more flexible. 6. Enhance neurotransmission As the activity of the cardiovascular system increases and blood volume increases, the coordination between nerves and muscles will also be enhanced, which means quicker reactions and more agile movements during exercise. 7. Improve oxygen absorption and utilization As body temperature rises, muscles can better promote the decomposition of oxygenated hemoglobin, releasing oxygen for the muscles to conveniently burn fat to generate energy, providing what the human body needs for exercise. Because there may be some uncertain factors when swimming, such as cramps, in order to better protect yourself, it is best to do some warm-up exercises before swimming. Warm-up exercises are one of the warm-up exercises, which can reduce the danger of swimming as much as possible. So before swimming, be sure to do warm-up exercises to warm up. |
