Which sports are suitable for summer health? Due to the high temperature and humidity in summer, the requirements for physical fitness are higher. The following is the content of healthy exercise in summer. Welcome to read!
The first is to promote tourism.
The main purpose of summer tourism is to escape the heat and enjoy the cool. According to this principle, the destination of summer tourism should be the seaside and mountains. There are two reasons:
First, their temperatures are relatively low; Coastal climate is also called marine climate. In summer, the inland sun is scorching, but the seaside is cool and breezy. Mountain climate is characterized by low temperature, but large temperature difference between day and night. Generally speaking, the temperature is inversely proportional to the altitude. Every time the altitude rises 1000m, the temperature drops by about 5℃ ~ 6℃. Secondly, the coastal and mountainous environment is pleasant: people living by the sea will feel that the wind direction will change regularly in a day and night.
Especially in the hot summer, the cool sea breeze blows on the face, which makes people feel refreshed and exhausted. In addition, the wide and soft beaches provide natural places for people to sunbathe and bathe in the sea. The unique comprehensive function of coastal climate can coordinate the functions of various tissues and organs of the body, and has certain preventive and therapeutic effects on various chronic diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the seaside to rest in summer 10 days or so, which is very beneficial to physical and mental health.
Traveling in mountainous areas also has many advantages. Generally speaking, the altitude range where mountain environment is beneficial to human health is the middle and low mountain areas, that is, the area with an altitude of about 500 ~ 2000 meters. Its promotion to human health is mainly manifested in the conditioning effect of mountain climate and some longevity factors in mountain environment.
The famous mountains in China Resort include Lushan Mountain, Huangshan Mountain, Moganshan Mountain, Jigong Mountain and Emei Mountain. These areas are covered with green peaks, shady trees, blooming flowers and fresh air. Breathing such air can calm the mood, prevent asthma attacks and improve the ventilation function of the lungs. The magnificent natural landscape in the mountains, the quiet and transparent sky or the ever-changing sea of clouds all make people feel relaxed and happy. People can make full use of the natural conditions in mountainous areas for short-term recuperation, summer vacation, mountaineering, sightseeing and walking. Through these activities, we can exercise the function of cardiovascular system.
Second, it is best to swim.
Swimming is the best physical exercise in summer. The hot sun is like fire, and the hot air is blowing head-on. Swimming is the most comfortable, which not only exercises the body, but also relieves the summer heat. Swimming is good for people.
First of all, swimming can improve the function of human respiratory system. After swimming, you can fully inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, so that the metabolism of tissues and cells in the body is vigorous, which has a good effect on preventing and treating chronic bronchitis and improving emphysema. Secondly, swimming can improve the function of cardiovascular system. Swimming can greatly enhance the function of the heart and reduce the deposition of metabolic waste on the blood vessel wall.
In addition, swimming can increase the excitability of the cerebral cortex. If you swim in the water for a while after work, no matter who you are, you will feel refreshed, tired and light. Especially for middle-aged and elderly people, frequent swimming can make fat metabolism better and avoid fat accumulation in omentum and subcutaneous tissue to form obesity.
The above shows that swimming does have many benefits, but it is not a sport for everyone. Be sure to have a thorough physical examination before you go into the water. In addition, it is not advisable to swim within one hour after meals; Be fully prepared before swimming to avoid cramps and colds: don't jump into the water suddenly when you get into the water. Before swimming in a deep place, you should wash your face, upper limbs and chest and abdomen with water in a shallow place. After swimming, if the water in your ears doesn't come out, you can use the side head low ear jump method; After swimming, you must also thoroughly wash your body with clear water and wash off unclean water. In order to prevent eye diseases, it is best to drop some eye drops.
The third is to play fitness ball.
Fitness ball, also known as Baoding iron ball. This kind of exercise can harmonize qi and blood, relax tendons and activate collaterals, strengthen the body, strengthen the brain and improve intelligence, and is not limited by the venue and climate, so it is suitable for practice in summer. If you can practice fitness ball regularly, it will have a good effect on hemiplegia sequelae, cervical spondylosis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, coronary heart disease, finger dysfunction and other diseases. In addition, due to the frequent friction between the iron ball and the palm skin, static electricity and thermal effect will also play a role in promoting blood circulation and treating diseases in all parts of the body.
The fourth is fishing.
Fishing is not only to catch fish, but also to nourish temperament and gain body and mind. In the past, many scholars and celebrities regarded "smoke fishing" as an elegant activity. Legend has it that Jiang Ziya, who helped Zhou Wenwang conquer the world, once fished along the Weihe River.
On a hot summer day, whenever you come to a reservoir or pond, under the lush shade of trees, when the breeze blows, you can read the luxuriant gas, smell the cicada singing in the sunset, and see the "white floating" jumping in the green waves ... How comfortable it is to find this Shu Yue and tranquility, naturally feel cool, drive away troubles and restrain impatience! And often experiencing this kind of happiness is naturally conducive to health and longevity.
Fishing is nourishing because it is composed of brain, hands, eyes, and the help of quietness, mind and movement. When fishing, the eyes, brain and spirit are all focused on the movement of the buoy, quietly, intending to show the sky, moving in silence, which has played a positive role in improving people's visual and mental sensitivity.
The fifth is air bath.
The above sports are just examples. Of course, there are many sports suitable for summer physical exercise, so I won't say much here. As the saying goes, "practice for three days in winter and three days in summer", which shows the important role of physical exercise in summer in health. Experimental observation shows that people who often participate in exercise in summer have better heart function, vital capacity and digestive function than those who do not insist on exercise, and the incidence rate is also lower. But the hot weather in summer consumes a lot of human body, so we must pay attention to the methods of participating in sports activities in summer, and we must also pay attention to the days in summer. Only reasonable arrangement can achieve good fitness effect.
First, eat more alkaline foods to prevent acid-base imbalance. Alkaline foods are mainly fruits, and watermelons, pineapples, apricots, plums and cantaloupes in fruits are rich in potassium salts.
Secondly, it is best to do outdoor sports in the early morning or evening when the weather is cool. Get up in the morning and go to parks, lakes, courtyards and other places with fresh air. These events include broadcast gymnastics, Qigong and Tai Ji Chuan.
Third, exercise moderately and don't be overtired. You can drink some salty boiled water properly, and it is best to take a hot bath, which can not only eliminate fatigue, but also make people feel particularly comfortable.
