What exercises can improve heart and lung function? When is the best time to do it?

When it comes to exercise to improve heart and lung function, perhaps our first impression is running. Indeed, running is our most common exercise and the most natural exercise for human beings.

But there are also many people who don't like running. I am, hahaha.

So if you want to improve heart and lung function, is there any exercise training suitable for you?

What is cardiopulmonary function?

Cardiopulmonary function: The heart is a blood pump. The stronger its blood pumping ability, the faster its blood return speed, the faster our metabolism, the stronger its ability to remove metabolic waste, and the faster our body recovers. Therefore, we say that strong cardiopulmonary function is very important for our bodies to stay young. Cardiopulmonary function can be enhanced by training.

On the training of cardiopulmonary function;

Running: If the exercise center rate is around 130 ~ 140, it is an important method to enhance the cardiopulmonary ability for 30 ~ 90 minutes. As long as you run at a moderate intensity for 30 minutes, you can achieve a good effect of stimulating heart and lung function, that is, you can achieve this effect by running at a medium speed of 3000~5000 meters.

Swimming: Swimming also has a good effect on the enhancement of human heart and lung function. Swimming skills can stimulate cardiopulmonary exercise, and the stimulation of water pressure on the body will increase the pressure on the lungs. Just keep swimming at a constant speed for a long time.

Bicycle: cycling (spinning or road racing) mainly focuses on the lower limbs, and the trunk and upper limbs are motionless. The overall stimulation effect is not as good as running and swimming alive, but more is endurance training of lower limbs. Bicycles should stimulate heart and lung function better, and ride at different speeds for many times. From now on, ride for many times.

Skipping rope: Skipping rope is a very intense sport. Generally speaking, 1500 times is completed in about 16 minutes, which can be a very good cardiopulmonary stimulation, but ordinary people may have difficulty supporting their legs before cardiopulmonary stimulation.

Comprehensive training:

Ball games: Basketball, football, badminton, table tennis and other sports usually last for 30-90 minutes, and moderate intensity is better. Both are good cardio-pulmonary exercises.

Confrontation: boxing, taekwondo, etc. This kind of exercise has high intensity, short duration and high frequency, and can be done for 3 ~ 5 rounds at a time.
