Regular sit-ups can effectively prevent pelvic inflammatory disease

Studies have shown that doing sit-ups regularly can improve physical fitness and effectively prevent pelvic inflammatory disease in women. Its preventive effects mainly include the following three aspects.

First of all, sit-ups can exercise the strength of the abdominal muscles and tighten them to better protect the abdominal organs from impact. Long-term exercise can also have a certain abdominal tightening effect.

Secondly, doing sit-ups regularly can stretch the back muscles, ligaments and spine, and regulate the central nervous system through stretching exercises, thereby improving the body's disease resistance.

Again, sit-ups can also exercise women's groins, because there are many capillaries and acupoints in the groin, and sit-ups can stimulate the blood vessels, thereby speeding up the blood flow, so as to effectively prevent pelvic inflammatory disease.

It should be noted that when doing sit-ups, women should exhale when bending forward and inhale when lying on their back. They should not mechanically complete the entire inhalation process while lying on their back. They should hold their breath and tighten their abdomen at the moment their shoulders and back touch the ground, gradually lifting their upper body, and exhale quickly when their upper body is lifted to the point where their abdomen feels bloated.

It should be noted that, in terms of the exercise itself, the frequency of sit-ups for women should be controlled to a certain extent. For example, for women under 30 years old, the frequency of sit-ups should be controlled at 45-50 per minute each time; for women aged 30-40, the frequency of sit-ups should be controlled at 40-45 per minute each time; for women aged 40-50, the frequency of sit-ups should be controlled at about 35 per minute each time; for women over 50, the frequency of sit-ups should be controlled at 25-30 per minute each time.
