Is it okay to run after drinking?

Drinking is a very enjoyable process for people. Although the taste of alcohol is extremely pungent, after drinking it, people will experience temporary paralysis under the effect of alcohol, and it can even alleviate the pain caused by the disease to a certain extent. Nowadays, alcohol has become an irreplaceable drink in people's lives, and drinking has a great impact on people's behavior. Let's take a look at whether it is good to run after drinking?

1. Sluggishness and lethargy

If you drink alcohol before running, the alcohol will first cause a short-term excitement in the cerebral cortex, and then produce inhibition, causing the person to become slow to react and sleepy. It is not possible to run in this state.

2. Sports injuries

After drinking, the human body will become hot or drunk. If one runs at this time, the double impact can easily lead to accidents. Moreover, drinking too much may cause drowsiness, which makes it difficult to concentrate during exercise, thereby increasing the risk of injury.

Especially for people who drink frequently, their nervous system functions are disordered, their ability to respond to external stimuli is reduced, their accuracy and coordination are affected, and they are more likely to have tense and uncoordinated movements when running, and cannot run fast, and are even prone to sprains, falls and other dangers.

3. Affects the heart

Alcohol stimulates the kidneys to produce urine, accelerating the loss of water in the body and aggravating dehydration. Studies have shown that the body can lose 3% of its weight due to water loss within 4 hours after drinking. This is extremely detrimental to exercise, especially endurance exercise, and increases the risk of heart disease during exercise. Moreover, alcohol has the effect of inhibiting myocardial contraction. Running after drinking will further increase the burden on the myocardium and cause harm to the heart. After drinking, the human body's heart rate increases and blood circulation also speeds up. If you exercise at this time, myocardial oxygen consumption will increase sharply, which will undoubtedly increase the burden on the heart and other organs.

4. Dehydration

After drinking, the human body needs to replenish water to dilute the alcohol in the blood, which is already dehydrated. If you go running at this time, your body will become dehydrated due to sweating. Dehydration can make people feel more tired and weak, and even cause other discomforts.
