Treadmill fitness pay attention to the correct posture of the soles of the feet or dizziness
More and more people like to use the treadmill to exercise. However, some people have discomfort in the lumbar spine, knees, ankles and other parts and joints after exercising on the treadmill, which is caused by people ignoring the correct posture of using the treadmill.
The following should be runners’ attention:
Because of the top of the treadmill Or install a TV on the machine. Many people either look up or look down at the TV when running. If things go on like this, it will easily cause neck muscle tension and lead to muscle strain. Therefore, it is best not to watch TV while running.
Some people are accustomed to arching their chests and backs when running, and their center of gravity leans forward, which will increase the pressure on the lumbar spine and cause lumbar spine strain over time. The shock of running and landing brings about 5 times the impact force on the soles of the feet, and the forward leaning of the center of gravity will also bring greater impact on the joints of the legs and feet. Therefore, when exercising on the treadmill, you must keep your stomach and chest tight, and tighten your lower back muscles.
Someone makes a particularly loud noise when running, mostly because they land directly with the soles of their feet. The direct landing of the sole of the foot will transmit the reaction force of the ground to the human body through the bones to the spine and brain, which is why some people feel dizzy after exercising on the treadmill. Landing should be done in an arc-shaped transition from heel to ball, landing as lightly as possible.
Incorrect arm swing will also cause physical discomfort. Do not swing the arm from side to side, as this will cause the center of gravity to swing left and right, which will adversely affect the knee joint.
Choosing an exercise intensity that suits you is also a problem that people often overlook. Generally, the heart rate can be detected on a treadmill. If the heart rate exceeds the target, you need to adjust the exercise intensity, otherwise it will cause some sports injuries.
In addition, pay attention to breathing adjustment and timely replenishment of water, preferably three steps, one exhale, three steps, one inhalation; appropriate amount of water or electrolyte drinks can be added between running intervals, which is beneficial to heart health.
