In fact, if a person has a cold, continue to go to the gym. If he only sweats a little, it may be that the cold will be relieved, but this is only limited to the individual's physique, or the person in the early stage of the cold. For most people, especially children and the elderly, it is basically harmful to go to fitness after catching a cold.
After a cold, the human body is weak and the metabolism slows down. If you exercise at this time, your metabolism will be accelerated, and your body temperature will rise rapidly, which will lead to the disorder of regulating nerves in your body. When we exercise, we consume a lot of fat, sugar and protein. If we don't replenish it in time, we will become weaker, and exercise will accelerate the consumption of oxygen and increase the burden on the heart and lungs.
Therefore, when you have a cold and feel uncomfortable, it is best not to exercise, especially when you have a fever. At this time, our heart beats faster and our blood circulation is faster than usual. If you exercise again at this time and your heart beats faster, the burden on your heart will become heavier and heavier, which is not conducive to the recovery of your body.
If a person exercises for a long time after catching a cold, the virus that may catch a cold will invade the heart and form inflammation over time, which may lead to myocarditis and other diseases. Many people exercise as soon as they catch a cold, and there will be breathing difficulties, palpitations, chest tightness and other phenomena. These are all phenomena that the body is warning you, and you will faint or even die suddenly.
Therefore, it is best to take a rest when you have a cold, cheer up and supplement nutrition, which is conducive to the recovery of the body.
