This weekend "indulgence" is not a waste of life

Modern people work long hours. If you don’t do any exercise on weekends, your health will definitely deteriorate. So, how do you exercise on the weekend?

1. Shopping

Suitable for: Women who stay in the office from morning to night.

Reason: This is one of the most popular leisure activities for women and is also a good aerobic exercise. Compared with the boring equipment training in the gym, shopping not only allows women to exercise their bodies unconsciously, but also makes them happy. It is a fitness method that has the best of both worlds.

Effect: Women can go shopping for two to three hours or even a whole day. Constant exercise can increase leg strength, consume a lot of calories in the body, and achieve a fitness effect.

2. Horseback riding

Suitable for people: those who have very high work pressure and certain risks, such as those who start their own company or the company's management.

Reason: My nerves are tense all day long and it’s really tiring. Think about being a horse wrangler on the weekend, galloping freely under the blue sky and white clouds. Wouldn’t it satisfy your desire to fly better than playing golf? The world is so big, and after all, the living circle of each of us is just a corner of the world. We long to break away from that small circle and yearn for a wider world. Perhaps when we are riding a horse, at the moment of galloping, half of the dream in our hearts has been realized.

Fitness effect: Horse riding can exercise your agility and coordination, and can exercise all the muscles in your body, especially the leg muscles. Horse riding for one hour burns 2,700 calories, which is the same amount of exercise as playing golf for a day.

3. Mountaineering

Suitable for people: IT people working in a dark computer room.

Reason: IT people work in airtight computer rooms all day, troubled by the turbid gas and radiation emitted by computers, which makes their heads feel dizzy. If you spend time in the gym on weekends, your skin and body, which have not breathed fresh air for a long time, will protest strongly to you. Go hiking on the weekend, immerse yourself in nature, breathe freely, sweat heartily, and throw away all the boredom and fatigue of the week.

Effect: Mountain climbing is an excellent aerobic exercise that can promote metabolism, accelerate blood circulation, improve endurance and leg strength, and enhance cardiopulmonary function.

4. Long-distance running

Suitable for people: those who always sit for long periods of time at work, resulting in a lot of problems such as back pain, cervical spondylosis, etc., such as editors, freelance writers, etc.

Reason: In theory, long-distance running is more suitable for this type of people, but concentrated running for two days on the weekend is not only ineffective, but long-distance running is a more intense activity and is not suitable for weekends. Free jogging in water has become the latest fitness exercise abroad today, and it is an ideal sport. Because jogging in water can evenly distribute the body's load, it has obvious advantages over running on land. Moreover, in deep water, the runner's lower limbs are not subject to shock and are therefore less likely to get injured. After exercise, the runner will feel relaxed all over.

Effect: The resistance of water is 12 times that of air resistance. Running in water for 45 minutes is equivalent to running on land for two hours. Water jogging is especially suitable for obese people. Since the density and heat conductivity of water are greater than those of air, jogging in water consumes more energy than on land, which can gradually remove excess fat from the body.

5. Ice skating

Suitable for people: People who are less active during the week and are too lazy to exercise even on weekends.

Reason: Ice skating is a fitness program that combines exercise and entertainment. For lazy people, it is the easiest sport that can achieve fitness effects while just chatting and laughing. Ice skating mainly exercises leg muscles and can improve limb flexibility and coordination.

Effect: Roller skating consumes 175 calories every half hour and can enhance the flexibility of the whole body and the strength of various parts of the body.

6. Diving

Suitable for people: those who work from 9 to 5 every day, follow a routine and have little change, such as government officials, secretaries, etc.

Reason: You are tired of the monotonous life. Maybe deep down you have been longing for change and excitement, but you just don’t dare to try. Diving will satisfy your expectation for excitement and a free life. Under the water, far away from the crowd, you seem to have come to a world completely different from the reality. Here, you can do whatever you want, like a free fish. The feeling is so happy that you feel like a god. When you return to the real world from the bottom of the water, you will feel like you have been reborn, and the problems and worries that were originally binding on your heart will become so insignificant.

Effect: Diving is a whole-body exercise, and its effect is comparable to swimming. People who can't swim are also welcome.
