Mountain climbing precautions:

Do some fitness exercises

If the mountain you are going to climb is high or you seldom participate in climbing sports, it is necessary to do some warm-up exercises before climbing.

That is, use 10-20 minutes to do some muscle stretching exercises and try to relax the muscles all over your body. This will make you feel much more relaxed when climbing.

Add bouncing action

When climbing upward, intentionally add some bouncing movements in each step, which not only saves energy, but also makes people look energetic and full of vitality.

Don't always look up

Don't always look up when climbing, especially at the beginning of climbing, because your legs are not yet accustomed to the climbing movement, and looking up often makes people feel tired. Generally speaking, when climbing, it is best to keep your eyes three to five meters ahead of you. If the mountain road is steep, you can climb in a "Z" shape, which is more labor-saving.

Distracting attention

When climbing a mountain, don't always think about how high the mountain is or how long it will take to climb it. Only by taking your time and stopping as you go can you experience the fun of climbing and not miss the beautiful scenery. When you feel tired, you can take in the scenery around you or sing a song to divert your attention, which will help alleviate your tiredness.

Relax when you go down the mountain

When going down the mountain, you must control your steps and not rush too fast, as this can easily lead to injury. At the same time, pay attention to relaxing the muscles in the knee area. Tensioning them too much will put greater pressure on the leg joints and cause muscle fatigue.

Through the above introduction, we have a good understanding of the precautions for mountaineering. Therefore, we must pay attention to these when climbing, so that we can proceed with confidence and there will be no harm to our health. In the process of climbing, if we are very tired, we also need to take proper rest.
