健康生活
氣排出有害氣體,加之雜音較大,所以不利於健康。
因此,健身走要儘量避開公路。健身走的量要達到每
次不少於
2000
米,儘量快走。身體不適時以及氣候惡
劣時,不適宜步行療法。
另外,慢跑是球類、游泳等等運動的基礎,也是人們
健康生活的重要組成部分,慢跑動作簡單,易於掌
握,活動全面,運動量易調整,鍛煉效果顯著,因
此,是一般中老年及體弱者喜愛的運動。
慢跑已成為潮流
目前,許多國家都出現了慢跑熱。慢跑已成為肥胖
症、孤獨症、憂鬱症和虛弱症等病治療手段。但是,
有很多慢跑者只是憑藉自己所理解的方式慢跑,其實
這樣不但不能得到健康反倒損害健康。
那麼,怎樣的慢跑才算正確呢?
1.
慢跑的姿式應為兩眼平視前方;
2.
肘關節前屈呈
90
度平行置於體側;
3.
雙手松握空拳,略為抬頭挺胸;
4.
上體略向前傾與地平面成
85
度左右;
5.
雙腳交替騰空、蹬地,腳掌離地約
10
釐米;
6.
全身肌肉放鬆,用輕而略帶彈跳的步伐前進;
7.
上肢屈肘保持
60
度∼
90
度,在身體左右側平行地
自然擺動;
8.
呼吸自然,鼻吸鼻呼或鼻吸口呼。必要時口鼻同時
呼吸。
LIFE RESTS ON WALKING: JOG FOR "ETERNAL LIFE"
Physical exercises, sunlight, air and water are the cornerstones of life. Exercises improve our heart and lungs, circulation,
digestion, hormone secretions; lower our cholesterol, prevent hardening of vessels, reduce the rate of coronaries; we react
more promptly, our muscles, nerves and bones are strengthened, we feel better; our brains, relaxed; we are less tense and
more pleasant - most suitable for the elderly. A US study showed, half-an-hour's exercise daily benefits our heart, we survive an
average of 3 years longer. The strength of our legs has a lot to do with our health. For best results, be consistent; do it step by
step, increasing the speed gradually; take the speed that suits one's health best. After a meal, most of our blood would be
diverted to the stomach, rest for half to one hour before exercise. Ideally, walk in a park, forest alley, by the river, preferably early
morning or evening. Jog appropriately, with eyes looking forward; bend elbow 90o; hands holding fists; upper body bending
around 85o; heel above the ground for about 10 cm; relax all muscles; bounce left and right mildly and naturally; breathe in
through the mouth. Above all, try not to stop abruptly.
慢跑中應注意

動
;
肌肉及關節要放鬆
;
上肢要前後擺動,以保持前進時
的動作及慣性,保證胸廓的正常擴張
;
儘量用鼻子呼
吸,這樣可有效地防止咽炎、氣管炎
;
跑時腳的前半部
先著地,蹬地時亦為前半部用力,而不能整個腳掌同
時著地或用力,腳掌不應有擦地動作,否則會加大前
進阻力,易使腳掌疲勞、碰傷甚至使人摔倒
;
量力而
跑,跑步過程中如遇胸部有緊束感、心悸氣促及頭昏
等情況,切勿突然停跑,而要改跑為走,慢慢停止。
