Is compulsory exercise harmful to health?
Exercise is very important to health and is one of the important means to keep healthy.

Forced exercise is not the recommended method. First of all, compulsory exercise may arouse the disgust of the exerciser, and make them have negative emotions and attitudes, which is not conducive to long-term exercise and persistence. Secondly, the way of exercise varies from person to person, and compulsory exercise may lead to physical injury or health problems.

How to choose an appropriate exercise mode needs to be considered according to your physical condition and health condition. Some common exercise methods include aerobic exercise, anaerobic exercise, strength training and flexibility training. For example, if you want to enhance your heart and lung function, you can choose aerobic exercise, such as running, swimming and cycling. If you want to enhance muscle strength, you can choose anaerobic exercise, such as weight lifting and pull-ups. If you want to increase flexibility and balance, you can choose yoga, Pilates and Tai Ji Chuan.

Choosing the exercise mode that suits you also needs to consider your hobbies. If you are interested in a sport and like it, it is easier for you to stick to it for a long time. In addition, you can choose to match different exercise methods, such as the combination of aerobic exercise and strength training, in order to achieve better exercise results.

If it is for personal health and safety, I think it is acceptable. For example, if some occupations or tasks require physical fitness, it is reasonable to carry out compulsory exercise. In addition, under some special circumstances, such as physical health problems requiring rehabilitation training, doctors or rehabilitation therapists may also suggest or arrange compulsory exercise.

But if compulsory exercise is for other purposes, such as compulsory weight loss or body change, or other non-health or safety factors, then I think it is unreasonable, because everyone has the right to choose their own body shape and healthy way.

What form of fitness you choose depends on your personal preferences and goals. Different fitness methods have different advantages and applicable objects. For example, if the goal is to increase muscle and strength, weightlifting and gymnastics may be better choices; If you want to improve the heart and lung function and reduce the physical burden, aerobic exercise such as running, swimming and cycling is more suitable; If you want to relax and improve your flexibility, yoga and Pilates may be better choices.

In addition to personal goals and preferences, physical condition, sports experience, time and economy should also be considered when choosing what form of fitness. For beginners, it is best to start with moderate aerobic exercise and gradually join other types of training. In addition, it is suggested to consult a professional fitness instructor or a professional fitness coach when choosing a fitness method to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the training.

In short, forced exercise is not the recommended method. Choosing an appropriate exercise mode needs to be considered comprehensively according to one's physical condition, health condition, hobbies and sports goals, so as to achieve better exercise effect.
