Winter exercise can speed up the body's metabolism. When the body is stimulated by cold, it will increase the antibodies against diseases in the blood, and the body's resistance to diseases will also be enhanced. Therefore, people who insist on exercising in winter are less likely to suffer from diseases such as colds, bronchitis and pneumonia.

Winter sports have many benefits. For office workers, winter exercise can speed up blood circulation, increase oxygen supply to the brain and enhance blood vessel elasticity. This can eliminate brain fatigue caused by long-term work and improve work efficiency.

For the elderly, outdoor exercise in winter can fully enjoy the sunshine, promote the body's absorption of calcium and effectively prevent osteoporosis; For bodybuilders, when the warm body touches cold air or inhales cold air, the heat burned by exercise will increase slightly, so the effect of losing weight in winter exercise is better.

Matters needing attention in winter exercise

1, watch the weather outdoors. Don't exercise outdoors in the following situations: First, the temperature is lower than MINUS 10℃, which will not only greatly reduce the quality of exercise, but also be easy to get injured; Second, on windy days, exercise in this environment is likely to cause cold and chapped skin; Third, on a foggy day, smog will stimulate respiratory mucosa and induce rhinitis and asthma.

2. The preheating time should be long. Warm-up activities before winter sports must be fully in place, otherwise it is likely that muscle strain and joint sprain will be caused by low temperature, reduced muscle extensibility and stiff joints.

The warm-up activity before exercise is about 5 minutes, but the warm-up time in winter is twice as long, preferably 10~ 15 minutes. When warming up, it is best to do dynamic stretching first, and then do brisk walking or jogging with a certain intensity until you sweat slightly and your pores open.

3. It is best not to breathe with your mouth. In cold weather, you should mainly breathe through your nose, not open your mouth. Because the nasal mucosa is rich in blood vessels and the cavity is curved, it has a warming effect on the inhaled cold air, which can avoid respiratory tract infection, sore throat and cough caused by cold air directly stimulating the throat.

If you do a lot of exercise and can't get enough oxygen by inhaling through your nose, you have to use your mouth to help you breathe. When the mouth is open, the upper teeth touch the lower lip, and the tongue licks the upper jaw slightly, so that cold air can enter from the teeth and be inhaled through the tongue without seriously irritating the respiratory tract.
