Is running necessary for fitness?

Maybe many of my friends think that they only go to the gym to build muscle and don’t need to run at all, because you think running has nothing to do with muscle building. In fact, you are wrong. Running can not only make our muscles more perfect, especially the calf muscles, but also can be used as a warm-up exercise. Therefore, we recommend that everyone should understand the methods of fitness exercises in life.

If you just want to grow muscles, there is no need to run, but if you want to grow leg muscles, you can try short-distance fast running, which is good for the growth of leg muscles. But if you want your muscles to be more sculpted and your body fat to be less, then it is necessary to jog for a longer distance. In addition, appropriate aerobic exercises such as running can improve the overall muscle quality and enhance muscle elasticity and sensitivity. Therefore, it is recommended that you do appropriate aerobic exercises such as running while training your muscles.

If you use running as a warm-up, first walk at a speed of around 6 kilometers for 5-15 minutes. When you just feel your body getting hot but not yet sweating, start training the target muscles with lighter weights (such as chest training: 20 dumbbell flyes, no need to reach exhaustion, do 2-3 sets as above) and then stretch the target muscles (chest muscles) and antagonistic muscles (back) and antagonists (triceps). After fully exercising, follow with strength training~then relax, and repeat the previous stretching process until your heart rate returns to a normal rate.

Running faster can have a significant impact both mentally and physically: running faster and with longer strides can make you feel stronger and more confident. For beginners, the following running speed training plan is very suitable: in the middle period of a 30-minute running exercise, you can speed up your run 3 times, each time lasting 1 minute, and then return to normal running speed after each acceleration. This plan can be implemented once a week, and the speed should be gradually increased, gradually increasing the time and frequency of acceleration.

The fitness introduced in this article requires running. I believe that those of you who like sports should all know the importance of running in fitness. It is very helpful for our physical health if we insist on running in our lives, especially for losing weight and adjusting heart rate disorders, so it is recommended that you can run appropriately.
