Is it really good to run every day?

Nowadays, exercise has become a choice for many modern people to stay in shape, and running is one of the common sports. Some people like to run on a treadmill, while others like to run outside in the fresh air. No matter which one it is, you will encounter such questions. Can I run every day? If I run every day, will it not only be of no benefit to my body, but also have adverse effects? First of all, let me tell you what you need to pay attention to when running.

The running posture should be reasonable. The upper body should be straight and slightly leaning forward, the shoulders should be relaxed, the elbows should be naturally bent, and the arms should swing back and forth vigorously on both sides of the body. When running, both feet should move elastically with the whole foot touching the ground. The stride does not need to be large, but the step frequency and stride should be basically kept even. Pay attention to keeping your body's center of gravity stable and avoid large ups and downs.

Breathing issues during running are important. Breathing should have a certain rhythm. When breathing through the nose and mouth at the same time, the mouth does not need to be opened too wide. The tongue can be rolled up to prolong the time the air stays in the mouth and reduce the irritation of the cold air to the respiratory tract. With each breath, pay attention to exhaling as much gas as possible from the lungs to increase the effective ventilation volume.

Sports shoes should fit properly, be clean and free of sand (except for barefoot beach running). Sportswear should be as loose as possible, but you should pay attention to keeping warm, especially when doing long-distance running in winter. Keeping warm is very important. You can wear a hat and gloves.

The requirements for running venues are not high, but for teenagers' long-distance running exercises, the ground should be soft, flat and free of foreign objects. If you are exercising on the road, you must pay special attention to safety.

The time for exercise can be early morning or at other times, but generally the time in the morning is tighter, especially in winter. Some people think it is better to be active between 4 and 5 pm. The basis for this is that the temperature is higher at this time, it is not easy to catch a cold, there is plenty of time, the light is better, and accidents are less likely to happen. This depends on personal circumstances, and the same goes for running time. Slowly increase the acceleration and time according to your actual situation.

The above is the editor’s introduction. Running can indeed help strengthen the body and lose weight. But you must decide the time and speed of running according to your actual situation. You cannot run vigorously without caring about your body just to achieve quick weight loss or fitness results. The same goes for other sports, you can't blindly follow the trend.
