What should you pay attention to when doing aerobic exercise at home?

Nowadays, more and more people pay more attention to their physical health, so many people do aerobic exercises as a family. Whether it is the elderly, children or some middle-aged people, they always do fitness together. However, many people do not have a good grasp of the standards of aerobic exercise, so if they demand too much of themselves during exercise, it is easy to cause some problems. So what should we pay attention to when doing aerobic exercises at home?

Tips for doing aerobic exercise at home

1. Patients with a history of heart disease, hypertension, or other diseases that are not suitable for jogging must be examined by a doctor and only start aerobic exercise under the guidance of a doctor after their condition is under control.

2. Take it step by step: Slowly increase the amount of exercise according to your own situation. Especially at the beginning, don't ask yourself to reach level 4 or 5 standards all at once, and don't require yourself to reach 30 points of exercise per week in the first 16 weeks. The body needs to have a period of readaptation and recovery.

3. Don’t neglect warm-up exercises: do warm-up exercises before each exercise to avoid muscle and joint injuries.

4. Don’t over-exercise: Excessive exercise will cause excessive fatigue, so you should make adjustments and rest. Otherwise, excessive fatigue will be counterproductive and increase the burden on the body.

5. There must be a relaxation phase after exercise: You cannot stop immediately after exercise, there must be a period of sorting out and relaxing. It has been proven experimentally that it is easy to fall into a coma if you stop exercising immediately or enter a warm room (or steam room). There have also been tragic lessons learned in the United States, which must be remembered.

6. Perseverance: If you cannot persist in aerobic exercise, it will be difficult to achieve the desired results. Americans even go so far as to believe that if you can't stick to exercising, you might as well not exercise. Aerobic exercise is required 4-6 times a week, at least 4 times a week. If it is lower than this standard, there will be no training effect.

In short, the first thing to pay attention to when doing aerobic exercise at home is to choose the aerobic exercise that suits you according to your physical condition, to proceed step by step, to be fully prepared when exercising, to control the length of exercise during the exercise, and not to overwork, especially for the elderly, as excessive fatigue may increase the burden on the body.
