High-intensity exercise

To maintain good health, moderate exercise is actually enough. Only athletes and fitness enthusiasts need high-intensity exercise. However, during the exercise process, you cannot perform high-intensity exercise at the beginning, as this will increase the burden on the body and easily cause muscle strain. It is best to proceed step by step, gradually transitioning from light exercise to high-intensity exercise, giving the body time to adapt.

Exercise intensity refers to the amount of force used during movement and the degree of tension in the body. One of the main factors that determine exercise load. The factors that affect exercise intensity mainly include: the density of practice, the interval time between exercises, the speed of movement, the weight carried during practice, the required throwing distance, the height of each high jump, and the difficulty and complexity of the movement. Exercise intensity has a greater stimulating effect on the human body. Appropriate exercise intensity can effectively improve body functions and enhance physical fitness. If the intensity is too high and exceeds the body's tolerance, it will cause body function decline and even damage health.

Exercise can improve heart and respiratory function, increase muscle strength and bone density, improve reaction sensitivity, reduce depression, and thus enhance physical fitness. Therefore, many people believe that increasing the intensity and duration of exercise will be more beneficial to health and longevity. In fact, this is unscientific.

Generally speaking, ultra-vigorous exercise is not good for your health. The study found that, first, it compared the effects of low-intensity and high-intensity exercise on the human cardiovascular system; second, it measured the changes in blood pressure and heart rate during continuous and intermittent exercise. The results show that both low-intensity and intermittent exercise can have a positive impact on health. Therefore, experts suggest that daily low-intensity exercise is not only good for health, but also can reduce the risk of heart attack.

Tai Chi is a slow and gentle exercise. Practicing Tai Chi for 30 minutes every day can significantly increase the level of high-density lipoprotein in the body after one month. This lipoprotein can eliminate low-density lipoprotein deposited on the walls of arteries, which is beneficial for preventing and treating arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, low-intensity exercise is beneficial to your health.
