What kind of sports are suitable for summer

Exercise is something that each of us does on a daily basis. Life lies in exercise. It is also a way of our life and an important way for us to maintain health and improve our physical fitness. However, when exercising, we must also pay attention to seasonal changes. It is most important to choose a suitable exercise method according to the climate. In summer, many friends do not know what kind of exercise is suitable. Let us learn about it below.

1. Take a walk

Many people worry about fitness, especially in the summer, when many people are unwilling to move. In fact, if you move your legs, you will naturally join the fitness army. Traditional Chinese medicine points out that walking is the best aerobic exercise in summer.

First of all, brisk walking is easy to master. Secondly, brisk walking is not restricted by time and place. In addition, brisk walking on flat ground puts less pressure on the knee and ankle joints, and is suitable for almost everyone, including the elderly, the weak, and the severely obese. The equipment for brisk walking is also very simple. All you need is a pair of comfortable and fitting sports shoes, and you can be on the road to health. Try to walk on streets under the shade of trees or along windy rivers or beaches; tree-lined paths in parks are even better.

Everyone can find the amount of exercise that suits them based on their age, physical condition, and the severity of their illness. The general principle is to not feel tired and to sweat slightly with each activity. During exercise, if you feel pain and distension in the liver area or general fatigue and discomfort, you should stop exercising, lie down and rest to increase blood flow to the liver and reduce the burden on the liver. If after exercise your appetite improves, you feel happy physically and mentally, your fatigue is reduced, and your liver function improves, you can increase your activity level according to your ability.

2. Swimming

The best sport in summer is swimming. Swimming not only exercises the hands, feet, waist and abdomen. It also benefits the internal organs in the body, such as the heart, brain, lungs, liver, etc., and is especially beneficial to blood vessels, and is known as "vascular gymnastics." In addition, since the calories consumed in water are significantly higher than on land, swimming can also reduce excess weight and achieve a bodybuilding effect.

Swimming time is very important. Six or seven in the morning, four to five in the afternoon, and after seven or eight in the evening are all good choices. Swim for 10 minutes to half an hour each time, about two or three times a week. The water temperature is lower in the morning in summer. Before entering the water, you should wipe your body with cold water to allow your body to adapt to the stimulation of the cold water and prevent accidents such as cramps. But try not to swim after 10 pm, otherwise you will suffer from insomnia due to over-excitement of nerves.

After going ashore, it is best to use a parasol to block the sun, or rest in the shade of a tree, or use a bath towel to protect your skin, or apply sunscreen on exposed parts of the body. After swimming, you should immediately wipe off the scale on your body with a soft dry towel, and it is best to rinse with fresh water. If water gets into your ears, you can use the one-foot "same-side hopping" method to drain the water out. Afterwards, do some relaxing gymnastics and body massage, or take a 15-20 minute nap in the sun to avoid muscle stiffness and fatigue.

The above two kinds of sports are suitable for summer. What we need to pay attention to when exercising is not only to achieve the effect of exercise, but also to pay attention to the adaptability of the body. Only by combining man and nature can the effect of exercise be better. At the same time, we should also pay attention to water replenishment when exercising in summer.
