Taboo 1: Exercise immediately after meals

As soon as you finish eating, your digestive organs start working, and they all need a huge blood supply. If you exercise immediately at this time, skeletal muscles will begin to compete with the digestive organs for blood supply, so it will be difficult for the digestive organs to maintain normal work. In mild cases, the gastrointestinal motility is weakened, and abdominal pain occurs. In severe cases, there are hidden dangers of appendicitis and stomach problems in the stomach and intestines.

The exercise time should start about half an hour to an hour after meals, and the body needs to be warmed up and stretched before starting.

Taboo 2: Squat immediately after exercise

After exercising, we inevitably get exhausted. We can't wait to sit directly on the ground, or simply lie on the ground and rest for a while, but the consequences of doing so can be more or less severe. When exercising, the blood circulation of the body accelerates and stops suddenly, which will hinder the blood circulation, and the muscles will not be able to rest and recover, but will make the muscles tense and more fatigued.

Before the end of the exercise, it is recommended to gradually slow down and stop the exercise, adjust the breathing rhythm, and do a few sets of stretching movements, which is conducive to the return of the body's blood to the heart, and has a good effect on the recovery of physical strength and the prevention of delayed muscle soreness.

Taboo 3: Fitness likes to show off

Many people, especially men, naturally like to show off, especially when there are beautiful women passing by, in order to show their energy, regardless of their ability, they forcefully do some exercises that exceed their own load, usually only deadlift 40kg, which is abrupt. It will not only not let you get the effect of training, but also easily lead to muscle and ligament strain. At the same time, it may cloud your mind and you'll never be afraid to do heavy training again.

Taboo 4: No warm-up exercise

Warming up is to speed up the blood circulation to the muscles, raise the body temperature in the training part of the body, and prepare for the next high-intensity exercise. However, many people ignore the importance of warm-up. It is enough to warm up the first few minutes of exercise, but I don’t know that this will not only make the muscles more prone to injury, but also greatly reduce the fitness effect.

Taboo 5: Drink plenty of water after exercise

Sweat profusely after exercising. This is the time when you are the most thirsty. Many people habitually pick up drinks or mineral water and drink it. It was very comfortable at the time, but in fact, such a sudden large amount of water will increase the body's perspiration, which will lead to the accelerated loss of salt in the body and increase the burden on the heart.

Drink a small amount of water after exercise, as long as you don’t feel thirsty after drinking, and don’t drink too much.

Taboo 6: Rapid cooling after exercise

In the gym, many people like to blow the cold air from the air conditioner directly or take a bath directly after exercising to achieve a rapid cooling effect. In fact, such rapid cooling will lead to skin tightening and sweating, abnormal temperature regulation, sudden constriction of blood vessels in the upper respiratory tract, and decreased local resistance, which is more likely to cause the invasion of bacteria and viruses, causing colds, colds, diarrhea, bronchitis, asthma, etc. disease.

It is recommended to dry sweat with a towel after exercising, and then take a shower or shower with warm water close to body temperature after the body temperature drops.

Taboo 7: Fitness does not pay attention to quantity

Just like eating "overeating", there is also the phenomenon of "overeating" in fitness. Many people don't exercise regularly. Suddenly strenuous exercise one day can easily cause muscle strain, and the fitness effect will not improve. In severe cases, some adverse conditions such as joint damage, tendon stretching, and rhabdomyolysis may occur.

Fitness pays attention to circulation and gradual progress. It is recommended to exercise 3-4 days a week, and each exercise should not exceed 2 hours, so as to obtain a healthier and better body.

Taboo 8: Smoking after exercise

In addition to the hormonal smell of sweat in the gym, there is one smell that stands out: the smell of cigarettes. If smoking is harmful to health, the health damage of smoking after exercise will increase exponentially, and the demand for oxygen after exercise will be greater. At this time, the air inhaled by smoking will be mixed with a large amount of smoke, which will cause the lungs and body tissues to absorb it. If more harmful substances are added, the body will also cause chest tightness, wheezing, coughing, and difficulty breathing due to insufficient oxygen supply. So be sure not to smoke after a workout!
