It is not advisable to take a bath immediately after exercise. It is recommended to rest for 20-30 minutes after exercise, and take a shower with warm water after proper hydration. The time should not be too long, the water temperature is close to the body temperature, and the optimal water temperature is 35-37 degrees.

The reasonable bathing time is that the heart rate returns to stability after exercise and after sweating stops. The water temperature should be slightly hot, especially for the elderly and hypertensive patients. Pay attention to the water temperature and time when taking a bath. Even healthy people should not soak in hot water for more than 5 minutes at a time. The effect of pool bath is better than that of shower, because it can relax body and mind more obviously.

1, don't squat and rest immediately after fitness.

After the fitness, if you squat and rest immediately, it will hinder the blood circulation of lower limbs, affect blood circulation, deepen physical fatigue and cause soreness.

The correct way is to adjust the breathing rhythm after fitness and do some low-calorie activities, such as walking slowly, doing some relaxation exercises or simply taking a deep breath, which can promote the blood of limbs to return to the heart, help us pay off the "oxygen debt" we owe, accelerate the recovery of physical function and eliminate fatigue.

Don't eat immediately after fitness.

When we exercise vigorously, the motor nerve center is in a state of high excitement. Under its influence, the parasympathetic nervous system, which manages the activities of internal organs, strengthens the inhibition of digestive system activities. The correct way is to rest for about 20-30 minutes after exercise before eating.

Don't drink alcohol to relieve fatigue after fitness.

After strenuous exercise, people's physical fitness will be at a higher level. If you drink alcohol at this time, the body will absorb alcohol faster and enter the blood, so the damage to organs such as liver and stomach will increase many times than usual. Long-term, it will cause fatty liver, cirrhosis, gastritis, gastric ulcer, dementia and other diseases.

Don't drink a lot of water after fitness.

Drinking a lot of water makes the body sweat violently. The more you sweat, the more salt you lose, which easily leads to cramps and muscle spasms. And drinking too much water will cause a serious burden on the heart after training, so it must be avoided. The correct way is to take a sip and drink it many times.
