"Smart Life" How can the elderly exercise to be healthy?

You can practice hitting Tai Ji Chuan.

If the elderly choose to practice some martial arts, especially Tai Ji Chuan or sword dance, their bodies will be effectively exercised, they will also be able to stay healthy and mobilize all parts of their bodies well, which is beneficial to their health.

Use community sports equipment.

At present, many communities have installed some sports equipment, so we should make full use of these sports equipment and insist on exercising all parts of the body. Of course, some devices that are not suitable for the elderly should not be tried easily.

Don't exercise too hard.

Old people may prefer strenuous exercise when they are young, but when they are old, they will still insist on doing some strenuous exercise, such as playing basketball and football, which is no longer suitable for old people.

Insist on uninterrupted every day

For the elderly, we must adhere to the continuity of exercise. If you always fish for three days and dry the net for two days, it should not have a good effect. As long as we insist on continuous exercise every day, step by step is bound to be good for our health.

Warm up before exercise.

Everyone should pay attention to warm-up before exercise, especially the elderly, who are easily injured during exercise. Therefore, it is very important for the elderly to warm up no matter what kind of exercise they are engaged in.

Pay attention to hydration after exercise.

You must pay attention to replenish your body's water after exercise. Because the elderly are also prone to dehydration after exercise, if they don't replenish water in time, they will easily collapse and even affect body organs.
