It’s wrong to jump to conclusions like “it’s too hard” or “it’s too much for me who doesn’t get enough exercise”. “If you run at your own pace, it’s actually not that hard, and even if you don’t have confidence in your strength, it’s perfectly fine to start with a walk at first,” explained exercise instructor Shinji Sakaki.
What is especially important is to take the first step. Once you experience the pleasure once, you won’t be able to stop. Give yourself constant praise for sticking with it, and the results will be seen naturally. In order to avoid three days of fishing, let’s first understand the reasons that will make you stop halfway!
How long is the most appropriate time to run?
As long as their physical state and physical strength can adapt to actually run how long is no problem. But it’s easy to change clothes and get ready if you only run for 5 minutes is a bit too wasteful.
If the goal is lower, you can set it at 20 minutes. 20 minutes will not make people feel difficult to stick to, and this time can also give the body’s metabolism a change, smooth breathing and natural foot relaxation.
If you want to run a little longer, then you should gradually extend to 30 minutes, 40 minutes. If you can run to 1 hour, you are a very impressive professional runner!
Can I walk when I feel hard?
Of course there is nothing wrong with walking a little, but “running – walking – running” so repeatedly will bring unnecessary fatigue. Just like a car needs more power when accelerating from 0, the acceleration process of “walking-running” at the beginning of the run requires a large force in an instant. Therefore, returning to the original point of fatigue will cause the accumulation of metabolic substances, and more likely to feel fatigue.
“According to a relatively stable speed to run can reduce the burden, but also can persist for a longer period of time,” said Sakakie.
What should I do when I feel tired and don’t want to run anymore?
Even athletes will stop running when they are not in good physical condition. There is no need to force yourself to run on days when you are not fit to exercise.
However, because of daily chores and other reasons “tired of not want to run”, a little light exercise can often be a change of mood.
“Static fatigue caused by the stress of life can often be eliminated by exercising the body to improve blood circulation,” said Sakaji Shinji.
