Content: Exercise is better when you are in a good mood.
"Exercise when you are in a good mood and in a bad mood has a completely different effect." Academician Zhong Nanshan told Health Times that when you are in a good mood, your nerves and muscles function in harmony. I don't feel tired after playing for an hour, but I feel very relaxed after exercise. When I am upset, I can't breathe for ten minutes, and I feel stiff and awkward when I move.
American researchers have done this experiment and given three groups of people different information. One group is positive, for example, the child got the first place in the exam. One group gives neutral information, such as ordered furniture has arrived; The third group gave bad information, such as someone had an accident at home. It turns out that people who give bad information consume oxygen very quickly.
So "when you exercise, don't do whatever you want." Academician Zhong Nanshan said that sports need to be personalized. We should not only choose the sports that suit us, but also choose the environment and mood that suit us.
Of course, exercise itself is also a good way to adjust your mood. Therefore, Academician Zhong suggested that when you are in a bad mood, it is best to exercise together, which can effectively change your mood. However, if you don't feel better after exercise, you'd better stop exercising immediately.
Academician Zhong Nanshan said that people's exercise around the age of 20 is a healthy reserve, reaching its peak at the age of 30. The better the exercise, the higher the peak reserve. Once you pass this age, it is difficult for your reserves to reach the peak, so you should exercise more while you are young.
Academician Zhong specially suggested that female friends should exercise their muscles properly. Because muscle exercise can adjust the original level of "androgen" in the body, it is an effective means to alleviate the discomfort of female menopause.
Muscle exercises include running, swimming, pedaling, climbing and flexibility exercises, such as dumbbells and traction. Women should pay attention to the gradual exercise of muscles, and the warm-up process cannot be omitted. Pay attention to breathing during exercise, be sure to keep up with your feelings, don't breathe particularly, and it's best not to feel obviously tired the next day.
Acquired training can effectively enhance people's willpower.
According to foreign media reports, a new study shows that willpower is just like the strength produced by muscles. Some people will have strong willpower, while others will be poor. Dr Susan Segstrom, from the University of Kentucky in Lexington, said in an interview that although we humans are born with a certain degree of self-regulation, it is possible for us to strengthen our willpower through acquired training.
Dr. Susan Segstrom and her colleague Dr. Les Solberg-Ness conducted this research together. They assume that the change of human heart rate-the ability of the heart to perceive and respond to changing needs-can be used as an indicator of self-regulation ability. The change of heart rate is controlled by the parasympathetic nervous system, which is the brake of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the "fight or leave" response.
In the experiment, Susan Segstrom chose 168 college students to take part in the test. The researchers first asked these college students not to eat or drink for three hours, and then gave them a plate of carrots, hot chocolate chip cookies and chocolate candy. One group of students only ate biscuits and sweets, while the other group only ate carrots. Finally, these students were asked to do a series of crossword puzzles, some of which could not be done at all.
The results show that the heart rate changes of students who only eat carrots are more severe than those who only eat biscuits and sweets, which shows that students who only eat carrots are exercising their self-regulation "muscles". At the same time, when doing crossword puzzles, students who only eat carrots give up faster than those who only eat biscuits and sweets, which shows that their self-regulation consumes more. In addition, the students whose heart rate changed the most at the beginning of the experiment persisted in crossword puzzles for the longest time.
Therefore, Dr. Susan Segstrom believes that muscles will send us a signal of fatigue, but we don't know in advance when the power of self-regulation will run out. It is impossible for ordinary people to carry a heart rate monitor with them to accurately estimate their resistance to temptation, but it is very helpful for people with weak self-regulation ability, such as alcoholics and smokers.
She believes that it is also possible for people to enhance their ability to self-regulate "muscles" through physical exercise. Physical exercise has dual functions: on the one hand, it strengthens the strength of the myocardium; On the other hand, it strengthens the brain's ability by forcing people to engage in activities they don't necessarily want to engage in.
Susan Segstrom finally said that the research results show that repeated conscious self-regulation can effectively enhance people's willpower. Segstrom said, "To some extent, willpower is like a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it will become. " . (
That's enough to write.
