Accompanied by melodious singing and melodious melody, dance brings elegant visual impact to the audience and aesthetic feeling to the dancers themselves. Overweight and obese people can lose weight, while thin people can gain strength.
Dancing pays special attention to the coordination of movements, usually accompanied by cheerful and melodious music. The activity rhythm can be urgent or slow, tight or loose, and the time can be long or short. When dancing, the spirit is relaxed and happy, which is beneficial to physical and mental health, especially for the elderly. At the same time, dancing is also a good communication activity, which can strengthen the exchange of ideas, enhance friendship and make new friends.
Dancing for health care, the elderly have to avoid the "minefield"
Many elderly people learn to dance for health, but due to physiological factors, the elderly should enhance their awareness of protection when dancing.
Muscle atrophy in the motor system of the elderly, bone hyperplasia near joints, decreased ligament elasticity, ineffective joint movement and slow response of the nervous system. Once you fall, it is easy to cause joint and muscle damage and even fracture. Therefore, we should pay attention to step by step, train scientifically and adapt slowly.
In addition, when the elderly dance, they should avoid sudden and substantial neck twisting, waist turning and hip turning. The ground should not be too smooth. It is best to wear sports shoes, especially high heels and shoes with hard plastic soles. Taking barbiturates, phenothiazine, diazepam, tricyclic antidepressants, antihypertensive drugs, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, or drinking alcohol due to illness may affect the balance of the body and is not suitable for dancing.
Many dances require flexible waist rotation. If the coordination is not good, or the force is too strong, it will cause tearing injury of soft tissues such as waist muscles, ligaments, fascia, etc., leading to local swelling and pain, blue spots on the skin, muscle spasm and stiffness, which will affect the stretching, lateral bending and rotation of the waist. To prevent lumbar sprain, you can do some preparatory activities before dancing to coordinate your whole body muscles and stand by at any time. Once a lumbar sprain occurs, it is necessary to treat it in time and stay in bed.
Jumping, kicking and other actions exceed tolerance, which can cause achilles tendon strain and aseptic inflammation. When the movement is uncoordinated or the force is too strong, the achilles tendon can be broken by muscles, resulting in local pain, subcutaneous congestion and swelling, and the ankle joint movement is invalid, so it is impossible to push the ground hard. If you suspect that the achilles tendon is broken, you should go to the hospital for a careful examination and try to connect it as soon as possible.
The ancients had the habit of "smelling chickens and dancing", and many middle-aged and old friends also liked to dance in the morning. After a night's sleep, dancing to exercise all your muscles and bones can relax the whole day. But be careful not to jump at once. You might as well drink a cup of boiled water first. Because I didn't eat after a night's sleep, the urine was discharged, and there was no obvious water loss such as sweating and breathing, which led to insufficient water in the body, increased blood viscosity and increased circulatory resistance, which affected the blood supply to the heart and brain. At this time, drinking a glass of water can quickly absorb, dilute viscous blood, replace organ metabolism, promote blood circulation, not only make the skin look shiny, but also multiply energy.
After eating, the blood circulation of digestive organs will be accelerated. Help digest food. Dance at this time, a lot of blood will be diverted to the motor organs, which is not conducive to food digestion and absorption. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to rest for about 40 minutes after dinner before starting dancing.
