Many people spend a lot of time daily to walk for fitness but not effective, but the body is getting worse and worse, this is why? Walking fitness to achieve results is based on the correct walking action, the so-called “sharpening the knife is not wrong”, many people just do not have the correct walking posture when walking. Below, let’s take a look at the most common types of wrong walking posture.

01kick and walk

In life, there are many people like to kick the road small stones, debris, etc., over time into a habit. When walking, they are used to kicking around with their toes, and their eyes tend to focus on their feet. This habit will not only make the shape of the thighs become unsightly, but also produce a great danger. Because the line of sight is focused on the feet, often do not notice the changes in the road, very easy to traffic hazards.

02stand on tiptoe

Some people will put all their body weight on their toes when walking and tiptoe with every step, making their toes too hard. This is too much exercise for the calf flounder muscle and lung muscle, which will lead to rotary leg and ankle bone wear.

03drag one’s feet on the ground

Some people experience feet dragging on the ground due to fatigue, excessive weight bearing, shin or knee injuries, and low thigh and calf muscle strength, where the feet are unable to make the transition movement occur in a timely manner. This can cause great wear and tear on the joints, muscles, and arches.

04Upper Body Swing

Some people like to walk when the upper body swaying, many people think that this is not only beautiful posture and also more relaxed. In fact, this posture on the lumbar bones have great wear and tear damage, not only that, but also increase the pressure on the knee joints. In the long run, the knee and lumbosacral joints will have different degrees of wear and tear, causing pain.

05bow

A few people can’t walk with a straight back, and keeping a sick walking posture for a long time will easily lead to hunching, decreased body balance, and sagging arm muscles. Containing the chest when the lung space is reduced, lung expansion is limited, oxygen exchange is reduced, breathing becomes short, cardiopulmonary function decline. Over time, breathing becomes shallow, and the breath is hastily exhaled before it enters the alveoli, which is not conducive to blood-oxygen exchange, and is prone to cause dizziness and a feeling of fatigue.

06without swinging one’s arm

Swinging your arms allows you to better balance the movement of your legs, keeping your body in balance as you walk, and also makes walking easier and less strenuous. If you don’t swing your arms, you will be easily unbalanced and use up more energy. The correct posture of swinging arms: arms hanging naturally on both sides, with walking, natural swing, swinging arms range between 30 ° ~ 45 ° is appropriate.

Correct and good walking posture is conducive to human health, can promote blood circulation in the limbs and brain, thus relieving brain fatigue. Walking, head up, chest, brain blood through the cervical vertebrae can be circulated and evacuation, so that the clear gas rise, turbid gas sinking, at the same time, the whole body of the meridians will also be with the bones and muscles together with the stretching and relaxation.

Many girls are infertile for a long time, there are menstrual disorders, shortened menstrual cycle, heavy and dripping menstruation, thin lining, dry and yellow skin, lack of passion, weakness, abdominal pain and even habitual miscarriage, we should consider whether it is not luteal insufficiency. We are all relatively unfamiliar with the “corpus luteum”, what is it, and how we should regulate it, we will talk about it in detail.

01What is the corpus luteum?

Normally, after ovulation, a hematoma is formed, which after a few days turns yellow and is therefore called corpus luteum. It is actually a “cell mass” formed by the remaining follicles and other cellular tissues after ovulation. It secretes the natural hormone progesterone. The corpus luteum is responsible for the endocrine function of the ovaries and is the main source of estrogen and progesterone after ovulation.

02What causes luteal insufficiency

After ovulation, the luteum is underdeveloped, does not produce enough progesterone, or degenerates prematurely, resulting in a decreased secretory response from the endometrium. The incidence of luteal insufficiency in women of childbearing age is about 3-10%. Insufficient or incomplete corpus luteum function is detrimental to embryo implantation, and even if the embryo does implant, biochemistry may occur.

03How to regulate luteal insufficiency

(i) Prompt medical attention:

Hospitals will usually provide direct luteal support, HCG injections; progesterone supplementation; and promotion of follicular development, depending on the circumstances. Inflammation is dealt with before pregnancy, with anti-inflammatory treatment, suppression of inflammatory factors, and vigilance during preparation for and pregnancy as well.

(ii) Food regulation:

① Intake of black beans as well as other soy products is recommended. Usually can drink some black beans made of soy milk, tofu and other foods, rich in progesterone and plant hormones, and easy to absorb and digest.

② recommended intake of peanuts, hazelnuts and other nuts, containing a large number of phospholipids, can effectively improve the quality of the body, but also can play a role in maintaining the skin.

③ can often eat some kiwi, figs, hawthorn, strawberries and other foods, can promote the secretion of estrogen in the body, regulate the endocrine, so that the body is more healthy, maintenance of the ovaries.

(c) Moderate exercise:

Girls with luteal insufficiency still need to do some exercise to improve their physical fitness and promote the function of the corpus luteum. But when exercising, you must pay attention to the difficulty and time of the exercise, and prohibit too intense exercise.

Appropriately reduce the amount of exercise. You can choose exercises that are performed daily and are easy to adhere to. For example, fast walking, jogging, yoga exercise, simple aerobics and so on. Be careful to reduce the amount of exercise and exercise time, relax, slow down, appropriately reduce the amount of exercise, play a role in relaxing the muscles, stretch the body, and appropriate sweating can be.

Choose low to medium intensity exercise. In the process of exercise, you can speak, but can not sing, is belong to the medium intensity of exercise. Especially belonging to the menstrual period is not recommended for jumping type of exercise, but also to avoid the inverted position in yoga, do not overdo strength training, so as not to increase abdominal pressure.

Finally, a small reminder, women should pay more attention to care for themselves. To pay attention to develop a good living environment, avoid overwork, while strengthening nutrition, maintain a good state of mind, do not eat hot and sour and stimulating food, drink more water and eat less fried food, maintain a good mood.

Sweets are loved by everyone, and the satisfaction it brings is not only on the tongue, but also activates a good mood, so sweets are also known as “sugar-coated bombs”. For gastric patients, not only hot pot, pickled these stimulating food can not eat more, sweets should not eat more.

01Why you should eat less sweets if you have stomach problems

It has been experimentally confirmed that 60% of the experimental rats with gastrointestinal diseases that were fed a large amount of sweets for up to 6 months had worsened gastroenteritis, increased the concentration of bile-loving bacteria in the intestines, and even evolved into ulcerative colitis. This also proves that excessive intake of sweets will make the gastrointestinal inflammation increase and worsen the condition. Therefore, the reason why you should not consume sweets when you are suffering from gastric problems is that sweets have the effect of inducing inflammation, and consuming too much of them will aggravate the disease.

 

Not only that, eating too much sweets will inhibit the production of stomach acid, which can cause some obstacles to the treatment of patients with indigestion, bloating and other symptoms.

 

Today we are targeting sweets that contain a lot of fructose, and fructose is divided into two kinds: one is a single-cell fructose; the other is a multi-cell fructose, such as candy, milk tea, chocolate we usually love to eat usually have sucrose, glucose and so on.

 

1. Pickled sweets

Many people think that pickled foods are pickled with salt, in fact, there are some foods in the production of the pickling process added a lot of sugar, so that the food tastes salty and sweet and delicious. This type of food contains a lot of salt, sugar and fat, if you take too much, in addition to cause obesity, but also may lead to indigestion, gastritis, thus affecting gastrointestinal health, so this type of food should not be eaten.

 

2. Cake

For people with gastrointestinal disorders, some cakes can’t be eaten as well, because many cakes have high trans fatty acid content. In addition to cause obesity, it will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, preventing normal digestion and absorption, and even increase the burden on blood vessels, promote blood sugar rise induced cardiovascular disease, so cakes should also try to eat less.

3. Candy

Candy is extremely high in sugar content, even just one candy may affect the blood sugar steady, and every 100g of candy in the trans fatty acid content can be up to 0.8 grams or more, people with gastrointestinal diseases must pay attention.

02How much is the right amount to eat in a day for people with stomach problems

Although many patients recognize that they should reduce their intake of sweets, there should be a standard maximum daily intake of sugar in order to control it. For different gastric patients, there is a difference in the control of sweets.

 

Normally, an average adult can consume up to 50g of sugar a day. According to the reference standard suggested by the School of Medicine of Central South University, most gastric patients should consume less than 25g of sugar per day, which can be adjusted according to their daily diets.

Gastric patients are also accompanied by obesity and hyperglycemia and other complications, it is necessary to further limit the amount of sugar intake per day also need to be further reduced, can be controlled at about 15g. Of course, excessive intake of sugar is not conducive to health, just in the case of gastric disease, more attention should be paid to eat as little as possible.

 

In order to get well soon, a reasonable dietary arrangement is very important, in addition to sugar to limit, some heavy oil and salt will stimulate the stomach of other foods should also reduce the intake, to avoid worsening of the condition.

Method: Slowly take a deep breath in through the nose and slowly exhale out through the mouth. (Like blowing out a candle.)

Chest Breathing

Time: At the initial stage, the uterus opens 2 to 3 cm. each contraction lasts 30 to 50 seconds, with an interval of 5 to 20 minutes.

Method: The mother-to-be relaxes completely. Eyes on a fixed point; inhale through the nose, can feel the chest contour puffed up, mouth exhalation, the chest contour slowly return to its original position, the abdomen to remain relaxed; roughly 6 to 9 times per minute, breathing smoothly, the amount of breath evenly.

Third, shallow and slow accelerated breathing

Method: The mother-to-be relaxes completely and gazes at a fixed point. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth; synchronize your breathing with the strengthening and slowing of the uterine contractions.

We all know that pregnant mothers exercise during pregnancy, not only to keep the mood happy, but also to make all aspects of the body more adapted to labor and delivery, so that the process of labor and delivery will be smoother, but also will reduce the risk of difficult labor. In the absence of exercise contraindications, pregnant mothers can do some exercise during pregnancy, of which aerobic fitness is very pregnant mothers do.

01Aerobic Programs for Pregnancy Exercise

The key to aerobic exercise is to ensure that the exercise time, at least 3 to 4 times a week, each time at least 20 to 30 minutes. Pregnant mothers who do not use the basis of exercise can start from 10 minutes, and then slowly increase the length after adaptation. As with other exercises, the warm-up aspect of aerobic exercise should not be ignored. Warm-up exercises include stretching and warming up the major muscle groups, which can be done in the following ways.

Strides

Feet slightly divided, hands hanging naturally, the first step of the stride movement is to lift the knee, as much as possible within a moderate range, and then slowly fall, to form an exaggerated stride movement, pay attention to not manic feet, lift the height of the knee to be appropriate. In the process of the action, the abdomen, head up, chest out. You can add upper body swing to increase the intensity of the movement. Stick with it for a few minutes to achieve the purpose of warming up.

Cycling

This includes both outdoor bike riding and indoor stationary bike fitness machines. Many doctors do not recommend outdoor cycling for pregnant women out of concern for their balance. You need to wear a helmet and enough water for outdoor cycling. You can also go out for a hike with your family. Indoor exercise bikes, on the other hand, do not require helmets and other amenities. Many of these bikes come with a variety of pre-programmed exercise modes to choose from, making them safe and suitable for pregnant mothers to train on.

Scooter Exercise

Scooting is a great workout. However, it is important to keep your balance and slow down during the exercise.

02Other fitness equipment

All home fitness equipment can be used for pregnancy cardio, such as treadmills and paddle machines. Pregnant women try to choose the undefined low-speed mode on these fitness equipment. Or turn off the computer controls and exercise at a speed that suits you.

Finishing Exercise

Aerobic exercise increases the intensity of cardio work and body temperature will increase accordingly. Finishing exercise is more important, through the finishing exercise, let the body slowly return to normal, not immediately after the exercise to lie down or sit down to rest, you can do the following finishing exercise.

Pelvic Exercise

This exercise is suitable for preventing and relieving back pain. Get on all fours, keep your spine level, and then tuck your pelvis in, driving your pubic bone toward your neck. Note that only the pelvic area is moved. You can experience the feeling of independent pelvic movement with the help of your family. Exercise 10 times as a group, do two groups. Try to do two more sets before going to bed.

Side Stretch

Lie on your side with your arm on the same side under your head and stretch as far as you can, stretching your body and legs at the same time. Feel a complete release of stress. Hold this position for 10 seconds, then switch to the other side.

Full Body Stretch

Similar to the Side Lying Stretch. Lie flat on your back, raise your arms above your head and stretch upwards, and extend your legs in the opposite direction.

The secret to getting more energy the more you run turns out to be…

Many people know that running can strengthen your body, keep you in shape, detoxify your body, and so on. In fact, there is another benefit of running that is overlooked by many people: increased energy.

01How Running Increases Energy

The key to our enhanced energy is to fully activate cellular vitality, because cells are the most basic life elements that make up a living organism, all body organs are made up of cells, and only with healthy cells can we build an energized body. The most important nutrient for cells is oxygen. When cells are supplied with sufficient oxygen, they are energized and the body glows with health. Moreover, oxygen is a key element for cells to oxidize and break down substances such as sugar and fat and release large amounts of energy.

 

To energize yourself, you need to create a healthy physical environment where oxygen is efficiently transmitted and absorbed, releasing large amounts of energy while fully activating your cells. Running is the key to achieving this.

02The Key to Proper Running – Correct Posture

Although running can help us improve our mental vitality quickly, but if you run in the wrong posture, instead of running, you will get worse. So what is the correct running posture?

 

We can analyze it from the following three aspects:

 

First look at the way of landing when running. If you run with a forefoot landing, the Achilles tendon and calf muscles can assist in slowing down the impact after landing. Help us to reduce the pressure on the joints and bones; to improve the strength of the calf muscles and Achilles tendon, so that they synergistically cushion the impact of the landing; do not appear excessive stride when running, to avoid the formation of shear stress leading to knee injuries.

 

Secondly, the knee should maintain a certain degree of bending when running. This allows the muscles to be utilized to relieve the impact when the foot hits the ground. If the knees are straight, the impact when the feet hit the ground falls back on the bones and joints.

 

Then you need to increase the speed of your stride. Step frequency, is the speed at which you alternate between landing on both feet. The longer your feet are off the ground, the greater the impact caused when you land, so the faster the stride frequency, the less impact caused when you land.

What is the appropriate pace for running? About 180 beats per minute. Many people do not know how to check their own running pace speed, you can wear a heart rate monitor when running, its cell phone can automatically display the pace speed, try to make the frequency in the process of running

Try to keep your cadence at 180 beats per minute.

 

Finally, try not to stomp the ground with your heels when running. We can observe that some students’ calf muscles are very large, which may be caused by using the calf too much when running, especially when the back foot pushes the ground. Moreover, if we stomp hard when running, it will increase the friction and make the heel stay on the ground for a longer time, which is equivalent to stepping on the brake and then starting again, and our running speed will not be fast enough.

In fact, there are many reasons for knee damage caused by running, and the reaction force of the hard surface of concrete is even more likely to cause damage to the knee in comparison. The treadmills on the market today have different degrees of shock absorption. As long as one overcomes the problems of incorrect running posture, too long exercise time, too fast setting speed, etc., the use of treadmill will not have adverse effects on the knees.

02What’s the difference between running on a treadmill and running outdoors

The exact feeling varies from person to person, but in general, running on a treadmill will be more effortless and relaxing than outdoors. Running on an indoor treadmill requires less effort as we don’t have to overcome wind resistance. At the same time, the elasticity and shock absorbing design of the treadmill’s conveyor belt also reduces the amount of force required by the body. Many of the treadmills on the market today also come with corresponding courses, which will also be a distraction and easier for runners who are just starting to try out long-distance running.

03Do you need special running shoes on the treadmill?

No need, the conveyor belt of the treadmill itself is elastic and softer than the outdoor ground. Running shoes that are normally used for outdoor running can be used directly on the treadmill with no problem.

04Do’s and don’ts of using a treadmill

Indoor treadmill running is much the same as outdoor running, don’t eat too much before exercise, just add some energy appropriately. It’s best to do a full warm-up before you go for a run to avoid muscle strain in the process of running. Treadmill running pay attention to grasp the rhythm, from the slow walking in the transition to running, so that the effect of the movement is the most ideal.

05How to buy a treadmill

There are several key parameters to look at when choosing a treadmill. The motor is the heart of the treadmill, and its quality is related to the treadmill’s life, smoothness, noise and so on. Generally speaking, the motor power is 1HP or 2HP, so you can choose according to your own situation. The slope has a great influence on the knee, generally 2~5° is more suitable, the entry-level treadmill does not have the adjustment function, fixed about 2.6 degrees.

 

Shock absorption design is very important. Effective treadmills usually use rubber shock absorption or airbag shock absorption, some manufacturers also have their own patents. Entry-level treadmills use EVA or spring damping.
