Many people ask, can you exercise at night? I replied: most of the words of the ancients are reasonable, but we must use the spirit of historical materialism to restore to the ancient living conditions and eating conditions to understand. The ancients lived a hard life. Their transportation depends entirely on walking, and their housework depends entirely on their hands. Farming, raising pigs, chopping wood and carrying water are all quite hard physical labor. Even if you don't exercise deliberately every day, you will have a lot of physical activity, so you should have a good rest at night. In addition, ordinary workers often do not have enough to eat. It's good to be full at night, and there are not a few people who sleep hungry. Of course, there is no need to spend extra energy.
But modern people are completely different. From morning to afternoon, I sat still in my office all day. It is easy to have a little free time at night, which is not suitable for sports. Besides, people are extremely rich in food now, and evening is the most abundant meal of the day. Is it better for health to sit on the sofa and watch TV every night when you are full?
When is the best time to exercise?
If you have to say when is the best time to exercise, according to the incomplete information I have seen, morning seems to be a good choice. Research shows that the subjects eat more calories and fat, so the same amount of exercise, when done in the morning, has a better effect on inhibiting the increase of blood lipid during the day than exercise at other times. Having said that, many people will say: Look, isn't this the same as traditional health preservation? Morning is the time for "the sun be the spirit to grow hair", so you should exercise in the morning!
Indeed, after getting up in the morning, the human body wakes up from the sleep state with the lowest metabolic rate. If you can exercise properly, it will help to increase metabolic rate and improve blood circulation. Doing exercise in the morning means getting up early, and getting up early. The premise is to go to bed early. Early to bed and early to rise, regular life is good for health. However, these do not prove that exercise at other times is necessarily harmful. Because even if you exercise in the afternoon or evening, it is better to control blood lipids than not to exercise. Increasing physical activity, even at night, is bound to help reduce obesity and control blood sugar and blood lipids compared with sitting still all day.
Evening is the best time to exercise.
The best time for evening exercise is 2 hours after dinner to bedtime. Relevant experts suggest that at dusk: 17: 00 ~ 19: 00, especially when the sun goes down, the human body's exercise ability reaches its peak, the senses such as vision and hearing are more sensitive, and the heart rate and blood pressure also rise, which is the best time for evening exercise.
Matters needing attention in evening exercise
1, that is, bring a flashlight.
For example, wear a hat with a dome light and a vest with lighting. If you don't have such professional equipment, you can hold a flashlight in your hand.
2. It is best to choose a familiar road for exercise.
For example, choose the road when running during the day. If you run in a strange environment, remember the main signs along the way.
3. Pay attention to traffic safety on the road.
It's best to wear brightly colored clothes, or a sports coat with reflective strips like a traffic policeman. You can also wear a small mirror on your body to ensure that others can see you. Pay attention to vehicles when running on the road, and pay attention to cyclists who may suddenly appear when running on the mountain road.
4. Try to raise your feet when running.
Sometimes the lighting at night will make people have a certain illusion about height and depth, thus increasing the chance of runners falling. When you start running, you can raise your feet appropriately, and gradually you can get familiar with this running posture.
5, it is best not to wear a walkman to run.
After all, running at night is more dangerous than during the day, and the eyesight of runners has been affected at night, so it is best to keep the other senses completely sensitive, especially the hearing.
