Often we think that working without increased physical activity, you can save vital resources of the organism. But here's the paradox: the majority of knowledge workers, office workers, even a small physical exercise causes pressure surges, increased heart rate, shortness of breath.
Problems of inactivity - a scourge of the past decades. At low physical activity in the body slows down the update process of all organs, including the heart muscle. In order to maintain the blood flow, the heart has to work with a catch: lower strength of heart contractions offset by an increase in their number.
In parallel to the muscle fibers decreases the synthesis and vasodilator agents, as a consequence, the regulation of cardiac tone falls on the nervous system. Hence, additional problems are born - the tendency to vasospasm, headaches, heart palpitations. At rest (sleep) breathing becomes quiet, the surface, which is quite natural - because low muscle activity is accompanied by a decrease in pulmonary ventilation, slowing the processes of tissue respiration. Under such conditions lose muscle mass and volume structure deteriorates muscle fibers decreases glycogen stores - main source of energy for muscle activity.
The mechanism of direct influence of muscle activity on the endocrine system: the contraction of muscles "burn" accumulated stress hormones in the body, increases the synthesis of hormones, causing a feeling of joy. Long-term or permanent "immobility" reduces the load on the bone apparatus, which is accompanied by a violation of mineral and protein metabolism in bone tissue. Bones become brittle. With the development of muscle not only increases bone strength, but also strengthens ligaments, improves joint mobility.
Through the cervical spine and spinal cord are the arteries that feed the brain. Therefore, those who sits hours buried in the computer, not only to get any pain in the arms and shoulders and anoxia (lack of oxygen in the blood vessels and muscles), and headaches. Permanent static load can lead to the development of cervical degenerative disc disease - premature deterioration of spinal discs. Vertebral artery syndrome - a buzzing in the ears, dizziness, flickering flies and colored spots before the eyes, throbbing headache. Prevent these problems you can use the simple exercises that stimulate the three areas:
1.
Aerobic exercise
Providing mobility and increased ventilation of the lungs, increase immunity and improve the overall condition of the body, blood circulation, mood, weight stabilization. This could include brisk walking, skiing, skating, jogging, playing tennis or other outdoor games, swimming.
2.
Strength training
Aimed at training specific muscle groups, such exercises are usually performed in cycles, can be burdening. If a trip to the gym is not possible for any reason, it is possible to perform these exercises at home using dumbbells as weights. These exercises strengthen the muscles and increase their mass, which has beneficial effects on overall health, including bone, spine, improve metabolism, help get rid of excess weight.
3.
The exercises aimed at stretching
That improve the elasticity of muscles and ligaments. Stretching exercises are recommended before and after aerobic and strength training exercises. On the one hand, they prepare the body for exercise by increasing mobility and reducing travmaopasnost ligaments, and with another - relieve pain after physical activity and muscle tension.
Knowing about these "three pillars", which holds the main set of exercises - everyone can choose the most suitable exercises.
Only here, to confess, physical education require certain amount of time, we often "begin Monday 'healthy lifestyle, but not specify at what it ... I'd love to" active "rest, ski, swim in the pool, run but take 30 minutes on a full charge in the morning at home - can not do it. So I have little tricks that allow you to deal with charging during the day, keeping it for some special time. Over a year ago I started to do exercises at work at the computer, and the effect of these exercises - huge! Then I added a "sedentary" course "speed" and "stand-up" ...
Let's start in the morning!
