Exerise safely

Hey everyone,it's Zhiwei again ! Today i am not going to teach or introduce any new sports like what i did in my other posts. After saying that,many people would be wondering what will i be posting if it is not about teaching or introducing new sports.Now,I am going to tell you all what am i going to share , i am going to share how to exercise safely.

First before we exercise, we need to do warm up.We need to do a 5 to 10 minutes of low-level aerobic activity , like walking to get our blood flowing,increase temperature of our muscles and we will start to breath faster. These will adjust your body to meet the demand of pacing when exercising.








After warm up , Stretching. Stretching ensure that you get the most benefits when exercising and also you stay flexible. When stretching, perform each stretch slowly and hold in position like 30sec, make sure that you feel ease when stretching else you are pushing too hard. Below is a video that teaches how to do stretching before exercising.








Next is to have the right gear to protect us from getting injured and also make sure we feel comfort when exercising.For example, when playing basketball, remember to wear a basketball shoe and not play using bare foot.Also wear clothes that enable you to move freely and light so that your body will able to lose heat easily








Next, is to ensure that you drink enough water when exercising , as when you are sweating the fluid from your body are lose so we need to drink enough water to replace the fluid lost through sweat. Make sure that you have a quick sip of water every 15 to 20 minutes to keep your body hydrated.My recommendation of drink will be 100 plus , mineral water will be good too !








After exercising,remember to do cool down by slowing down the pace of your exercise to allow your heart rate and breathing to return to normal.








Lastly,take note of your body language.It is normal to feel sore after long hours of exercise but if you feel pain during exercise, stop exercising and take a rest for 2 to 3 days.
