Doesn't scientific fitness harm your health?
It is often heard and mentioned that the elderly should exercise more. Is it healthy or harmful to insist on exercise? What is it like according to science? Let's talk about it today

We must first make it clear that extremes meet, and everything goes too far. Therefore, whether old or young, long-term high-intensity exercise may harm the body.

What exercise does the old man do to hurt himself?

First, long-term square dance.

I believe you must have a group of middle-aged and elderly people who love square dance very much. This is really a very healthy exercise. There are also many old people in the popular TV series "Welcome", who dance square dance every morning. But if you don't pay attention to the method and strength, it is easy to get hurt. Don't underestimate the present square dance. Square dance is no longer a simple action at the beginning. Now with the upgrade and revision of the square dance, many movements are difficult. Some movements require very high strength and stability of the lower limbs. If you keep jumping for an hour or two, your joints are also very tired and easy to overwork. Pay attention to the time.

Second, Yan is not suitable for the elderly.

Yan's exercise is mainly to exercise back muscles, but this exercise is not suitable for the elderly, because with the growth of age, the joint intervertebral disc gradually ages and overstretches, which will increase the extrusion and collision of joints and easily lead to fractures. This kind of exercise must be avoided.

According to science, the real health care for the elderly is not sedentary or high-intensity exercise, but reasonable and correct exercise according to their own situation, and any exercise needs to be done according to their abilities. To sum up, any exercise should vary from person to person, and you should choose the exercise mode that suits you according to your own situation. No matter what kind of exercise you choose, you should do it step by step, and don't worry when you exercise. Reaching a certain level in a short time will have the opposite effect of quick success and instant benefit. The most important thing for the elderly is not to challenge any difficulties, but to persist for a long time, so it is most important to persist in reasonable exercise.
