开始健身项目可能是您为自己的健康所做的最佳选择之一。毕竟,身体活动可以降低患慢性病的风险、改善平衡和协调能力、帮助减轻体重,甚至增强自尊心。无论您的年龄、性别或身体能力如何,您都会从中受益良多。
对于大多数健康成人,卫生和公共服务部建议遵循以下运动指南
- 有氧运动。每周至少进行 150 分钟适度有氧活动或 75 分钟剧烈有氧活动,或者等效的适度与剧烈有氧活动组合。指南建议将该运动量分散在一周内完成。为了更加有利于健康、帮助减重或保持减重效果,建议每周至少运动 300 分钟。但是,即使少量的身体活动也有所助益。每天进行多次短时间活动,也可以累积健康益处。
- 力量训练。每周至少对所有主要肌肉群做两次力量训练。目标是每一项运动只做一组,使用的重量或阻力水平应该以重复 12 至 15 次动作后感到肌肉疲劳为宜。
经常运动可以帮助您控制体重,降低患心脏病和某些癌症的风险,以及增强骨骼和肌肉。但是如果您已经有一段时间没有运动,并且您有健康问题,那您可能需要在启动新的健身计划之前和您的医生谈谈。
在设计您的个人健身计划时,请考虑您的健身目标。想想您对健身有哪些喜欢和不喜欢的部分,并注意您个人的健身障碍。然后,为了能一直按计划坚持健身,您可以考虑采用一些实用策略。
启动一项健身计划是一个重要决定,但没必要让它成为负担。通过精心规划并把握好自己的节奏,您可以让健身成为您受益终身的健康习惯。
