Kapanlagi.com - Regular exercise is the key to maintaining body health and improving our physical fitness. By exercising every day, you will feel more fit and ready to face daily activities.

However, did you know that there are several mistakes we often overlook while exercising? These mistakes can disrupt your consistency and even increase the risk of injury. Therefore, it is important to recognize and avoid conditions that can undermine your regular exercise plan.

Here are some common mistakes you should pay attention to in order to exercise safely and effectively. This information is sourced from Henry for Health and reported by Kapanlagi.com on (18/11).

1. Using Improper Posture

Did you know that poor body posture while exercising can be your biggest enemy for your health? For example, when preparing to run, it is important to lean your body forward and relax your shoulders so that you can move comfortably and feel the benefits.

However, if you ignore the correct position, the risk of injury lurks, which can make you reluctant to return to exercising the next day. So, make sure you always maintain the correct posture to keep physical activity enjoyable and safe!

2. Not Warming Up and Cooling Down

When exercising, we often overlook two crucial steps: warming up and cooling down. Warming up prepares the body to get ready for action and prevents unwanted injuries, while cooling down helps relieve muscle tension and return the breathing rhythm to normal.

Both are very important for anyone who wants to exercise safely. If you skip these two stages, the risk of injury, ranging from mild to serious, increases rapidly, and it can even lead to dangerous heat stroke.

So, do not underestimate these two steps for your safety and comfort while exercising!

3. Skipping Strength Training

Strength training is key to preparing your body to be ready for action in various sports! By regularly training your muscles, you will not only strengthen your body but also improve flexibility, making you ready to face sports challenges with confidence.

Without strength training, the risk of muscle strain can lurk around you. So, let's start training! Try swimming, push-ups, lunges, and various other strength exercises to build tough muscles.

That way, your body will be more prepared and not shocked when exercising, while also making your workout routine more effective and enjoyable!

4. Not Giving Rest

One common mistake that often occurs when exercising is neglecting the importance of rest after a training session. Without adequate breaks, the risk of injury and fatigue increases drastically.

The more intense the training you undergo, the greater your body's need to recover. Therefore, it is important to be aware of how hard and how long you are training. Try to balance the duration of exercise with adequate rest time.

In addition to preventing injuries, rest time is also an opportunity for your body to replenish lost calories and fluids. Don't forget to refresh yourself with drinking water and provide nutritious intake to keep your body fit!

5. Excessive Exercise

Many people believe that the more they train, the healthier their body will be. However, this assumption can be dangerous! Exercising too much can actually lead to injuries, especially for beginners.

If you feel pain after exercising, it’s a sign that you may have exceeded your limits. It’s better to exercise slowly and consistently. This is far more effective than forcing yourself to train excessively at one time.

So, let’s maintain our health wisely. Always remember to listen to your body and exercise in a safe and enjoyable way!
