What should hypertensive patients pay attention to when practicing fitness ball for the first time?
Hypertensive patients who start practicing fitness ball should pay attention to the following matters: (1) When choosing fitness ball varieties, Baoding hollow fitness ball is the best, instead of self-made solid iron ball and stone ball. These two kinds of balls are too heavy and too cold, which is not conducive to the relief of distal arteriole spasm, vasodilation and blood pressure drop. Hypertensive patients who begin to practice fitness balls should choose suitable balls according to the size of their palms and the strength of their hands. Generally speaking, they should start with a small fitness ball (45 mm in diameter and 400 g in weight) or a pocket fitness ball (40 mm in diameter and 250 g in weight), and then switch to a larger fitness ball after improving their finger strength and arm strength.

(2) The amount of exercise should be gradual, which can be decided according to your physical condition and whether you often participate in sports. Exercise time gradually increases, and the amount of exercise gradually increases. The rotation speed can be increased by itself with the proficiency, but it should not be too fast, and generally it can be kept at about 60 ~ 80 times per minute.

(3) When practicing fitness ball, relax and be cheerful. When the fingers rotate the fitness ball, the loose grip of the ball is closely related to the extension and bending of the fingers. That is, when two fitness balls are rotated horizontally and parallel in the hand, the fingers bend and hold the balls hard; When rotating to the longitudinal arrangement, the fingers gradually stretch and relax, so a tight and loose rotation is beneficial to vasodilation and blood pressure drop.

(4) Use both hands and rotate them alternately frequently, so that the activity ability of both hands can develop harmoniously and the whole exercise process can be relaxed and natural.

(5) Using fitness balls to prevent and treat hypertension requires perseverance and patience, perseverance and perseverance, and it takes a long time to be effective. It usually takes more than half a year to take effect by using fitness ball therapy.
