How to train for muscle atrophy?

Nowadays, we often see many women wearing high heels in life, just to make themselves look more perfect. You will look more graceful when walking, but what everyone does not know is that wearing high heels for a long time can easily cause damage to the legs, especially the calves are prone to muscle atrophy. Some patients want to know how to train for muscle atrophy.

Aerobic exercise

Aerobic exercise can enable patients with muscular atrophy to inhale several times more oxygen than usual during exercise, promote tissue metabolism, ensure sufficient nutrients for the body, and enhance muscle strength, endurance, and body immunity.

Master the rhythm of exercise

There are certain requirements on the time intervals for exercise for patients with muscular atrophy. Only when the muscles have enough rest time can fatigue be fully eliminated, consumed nutrients can be fully compensated, and through overcompensation, the muscles can gradually hypertrophy. On the contrary, if you exercise too frequently, your muscles will not get enough rest and your muscle strength will not increase.

Control the amount of exercise

When exercising, people often use dumbbells, sandbags, tension springs, and rubber strips. So, what weight of dumbbells and sandbags and what kind of tension springs and rubber strips should be chosen? This should be determined according to each person's muscle strength. Generally, it should exceed 2/3 of one's maximum muscle strength, and the weight of the sandbag should be gradually increased.

Choose a sport

In daily life, many patients' exercise methods are inappropriate. If the lower limb muscles are atrophied, some people simply use walking as a method of exercise, thinking that the more they walk, the better. In fact, doing so will not only fail to effectively increase muscle strength, but will also cause joint damage due to muscle relaxation and joint instability.

Choose exercise methods in a targeted manner. There are many exercise methods for patients with calf muscle atrophy, but in order to achieve the goal of increasing muscle as quickly as possible, a common principle must be followed: when exercising, patients with calf muscle atrophy should gradually increase the amount of exercise without increasing the number of exercises and exercise time, so that the muscles feel tired quickly and achieve the purpose of muscle exercise.

Each exercise should be done 10 times continuously. If it exceeds 10 times, you need to increase the weight of the equipment. Or you can do two or three times continuously each time, and hold each time for 6 to 10 seconds. If it exceeds that, you need to increase the weight of the equipment.

Master the rhythm of exercise. There are certain requirements on the time intervals for exercise for patients with calf muscle atrophy. Only when the muscles have enough rest time can fatigue be fully eliminated, consumed nutrients can be fully compensated, and through overcompensation, the muscles can gradually hypertrophy.

On the contrary, if you exercise too frequently, your muscles will not get enough rest and your muscle strength will not increase. Therefore, patients with calf muscle atrophy should pay attention to the rhythm of exercise, and the more the better is not necessarily true.

If muscle atrophy occurs, it will have a great impact on the patient's life. The body suffers a lot of pain, and life and work are seriously affected, so I hope everyone can take a good look at the exercise methods for muscle atrophy introduced above. Don't be discouraged by this disease. Long-term persistence in exercise and treatment is the more critical issue.
