Don’t make mistakes when warming up! 4 Tips You Must Know Before Exercise

In order to maintain your figure and have a healthy and strong body, you should choose appropriate exercise and develop regular exercise habits even in winter. But in the cold winter, warming up before exercise is particularly important and should never be omitted! If you don't do the correct warm-up before exercise, the muscles in various parts of your body will become stiff, which will not only hinder your movements but also make you more prone to injury during exercise. As the temperature gets lower and lower, the warm-up time must be longer and longer. You must know the following 4 warm-up tips!

Knowledge 1／Keep warm

Many people will change into light clothes before exercising, or even start running outside in sleeveless sportswear, but this is actually inappropriate. Before exercise, when the body has not yet warmed up, if you wear clothes that are too thin, it can easily have adverse effects on the lungs and bronchi. You should add or remove clothes during exercise, rather than taking off all your clothes before exercise.

Knowledge 2／Drink warm water before exercise

The best time to drink warm water is 2 hours before exercise. Replenishing warm water 2 hours in advance can give the kidneys enough time to adjust the fluid balance and osmotic pressure to the optimal state. Drinking warm water before exercise can not only improve the body's thermal regulation function, but also reduce the heart rate during exercise. Remember, you cannot use hot coffee or hot cocoa instead of warm water. It will not achieve the same effect and will only make you lose water faster!

Knowledge 3／Do a good warm-up exercise

Warming up before exercise is absolutely essential! You can start high-intensity exercise after fully exercising the muscles in all parts of your body through jogging, massage, stretching, etc. Especially before swimming in winter, you must warm up your body thoroughly to avoid cramps.

Knowledge 4／Adopt the correct breathing method

It is best not to breathe heavily during exercise. You should try to breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. This can reduce the adverse stimulation of cold air to the respiratory tract. As the amount of exercise increases, you can use your mouth to help you breathe in.
