Precautions for relaxing muscles after exercise:

1, don't squat and rest.

This is a very common practice. When you feel tired after exercise, you squat or sit, thinking that you can save your physical rest. In fact, this is a wrong approach. If you squat down and rest immediately after fitness exercise, it will hinder the blood return of lower limbs, affect blood circulation, deepen physical fatigue, and even cause gravity shock in severe cases.

Therefore, after each exercise, we should adjust the breathing rhythm, do some low-calorie activities, such as walking slowly, doing some relaxation gymnastics, or simply taking a deep breath, so as to promote the blood of limbs to return to the heart, speed up the recovery of physical fitness and eliminate fatigue, and let our companions help us when we are really exhausted.

2. Don't be greedy for cold drinks.

Exercise often makes people sweat, especially in summer. With the consumption of a lot of water, there is always a feeling of thirst after exercise, and water is urgently needed. Mainly young people, most of them like to buy cold drinks to quench their thirst. But at this time, the human digestive system is still in a state of inhibition, and the digestive function is low.

If you eat a lot of cold drinks for a period of time to quench your thirst, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal cramps, abdominal pain and diarrhea, and induce gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, don't eat a lot of cold drinks immediately after exercise. It is appropriate to add a small amount of boiled water or salt water at this time.
