  The elderly should not do morning exercises too early in winter

  The temperature is the lowest in the early morning in winter, so it is not suitable to go out very early. exercise , if the work of keeping warm is not done well, the contact process will cause cold and hot, which will make the condition recur and aggravate the pain. Therefore, it is recommended to move the time of getting up early to exercise later in the winter, preferably during the warmer time after the sun comes out.

  If you sweat during exercise, you should not stop immediately. Instead, maintain gentle exercise and massage the affected area to maintain temperature and avoid sudden cold and heat. When you end the exercise, you should keep the rhythm to gradually slow down and return home to a medium-warm place in time.

  Therefore, it is good to exercise consistently, but sometimes it is not completely correct to go too far. Rheumatism can easily catch the cold in the human body, so I hope everyone will pay attention to the time of winter exercise in the morning and do a good job in preventing cold.

  What kind of exercise is good for the elderly in winter?

  Walking: This is a good exercise. Take a walk after a meal. But for a walk after a meal in winter, it is generally better to take a walk after a meal at noon, especially for elderly , because noon is the warmest time of the day, and if it is morning or evening, it will be colder. If it’s morning, you can choose after 10 a.m. If you choose afternoon, it’s better before 5 p.m. The general principle is to choose a time of day when the temperature is more suitable.

  Cycling: Cycling is also a very good way to exercise and is more suitable for young people. However, it should be noted that when riding a bicycle, you must take measures to keep your head, ears and hands warm. You must protect your ears, and wear relatively windproof and warm gloves. It is best to add knee pads. It is elegant and interesting to ride slowly around the park or along the bicycle path along the lake. It is also great. Of course, the time must also be chosen well, not when it is too cold.

  Shuttlecock and badminton: Shuttlecock and badminton are two sports that I like very much, especially in winter. Choose a warm afternoon, go to a park, find an open place, gather a few friends in a circle, and play shuttlecock. The severe cold in winter will completely disappear without a trace. At the same time, you can also exercise well. In addition, it is also very good to play badminton together. Of course, you should choose weather with no wind. If it is windy, don't play.
