How to relax after strenuous exercise

We all know that after strenuous exercise, our bodies will feel uncomfortable. Some people will cough after strenuous exercise, some will have muscle pain, and some will even have calf pain. In order to reduce the occurrence of these symptoms, the editor will tell you how we should relax after strenuous exercise so as not to be surrounded by the discomfort after strenuous exercise?

1. Upper limb relaxation exercise: Stand with your legs naturally apart and bend your waist slightly, so that your upper limbs naturally lean forward and hang down, and shake your shoulders and arms repeatedly for about 1 minute until your arms feel warm. While shaking, you can move your wrists and fingers for better results.

2. Lower limb relaxation exercise: Keep your body in a supine position, lift your legs up, and pat and massage your legs with both hands. Use your toes to slightly shake your thighs and calves, and also shake your buttocks, abdomen, waist, etc. Tuck and knee hug exercise: Keep your body in a squatting position, hug your knees with both hands, and at the same time lower your head as much as possible (it is best to put your chin on your chest), and then raise it up, about 20-30 times.

3. Whole body rest exercise: bend your knees, lean your upper body forward and support the ground with your hands. At this time, make full use of your breath, take a deep breath into your chest, and then sink the air into your Dantian. Repeat this several times, then slowly raise your upper limbs and stand upright until your pulse returns to normal.

4. Auxiliary method: Pay attention to replenishing water when relaxing after exercise. Everyone has this experience: you feel very thirsty after training, but you always feel that drinking more water is useless. This is because the main electrolytes in sweat are sodium and chloride ions, as well as small amounts of potassium and calcium. The sweat lost during long-term exercise is rich in sodium ions. The loss of sodium ions and chloride ions will make the body unable to regulate physiological changes such as body fluids and temperature in a timely manner. At this time, replenishing water in a short period of time is not enough to cope with the loss of electrolytes.

Three tips for relaxing after training:

1. After strenuous exercise, do not go swimming or take a cold bath immediately, otherwise it will easily lead to cold allergy and cause a cold.

2. It is the hottest time of summer. After strenuous exercise, it is not advisable to drink a lot of water or eat cold food immediately. After exercise, you should drink warm boiled water and light salt water in small amounts several times.

We all know that our lungs are also participants in our exercise, so after strenuous exercise we should pay special attention to not drinking water too quickly, otherwise our lungs will not be able to bear it. Therefore, after strenuous exercise we should use scientific methods to solve the problem so that our body will not feel uncomfortable and we should treat our body well.
