Cronología

  • 00:00:00 - 00:03:16

    Dr. Eddie Phillips, spetsialiseerunud elustiili meditsiinile, jagab olulisi näpunäiteid vigastuste vältimiseks ja treeningute maksimeerimiseks. Soovitatakse soojendust ja jahtumist, head vormi ja kehahoiakut, järkjärgulist aktiivsuse suurendamist ning treeningute mitmekesistamist, et vältida ülekoormusvigastusi. Oluline on kuulata oma keha, vältida treeningut haigena või väsinuna ning alustada kergemate harjutustega pärast pausi. Hüdreerimine on hädavajalik, eriti kuumades tingimustes, ja sobivate riiete ja jalatsite valimine on samuti oluline. Valu ja ebamugavustunde korral tuleb konsulteerida arstiga, eriti kui sümptomid püsivad või süvenevad. Kuumadel päevadel on soovitatav treenida jahedamatel aegadel. Üldiselt on ohutu treenida, kui jälgida oma keha signaale ja küsida arsti nõu, kui esinevad tõsised sümptomid.

    Hi. I’m Dr. Eddie Phillips. I’m a physician specializing in lifestyle medicine and board
  • 00:00:13
    certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. When I talk with my patients about their workouts
  • 00:00:19
    and physical activities, I always ask questions to determine if they’re exercising safely.
  • 00:00:26
    Here are some important tips to prevent injuries
  • 00:00:28
    and get the most out of your workouts.
  • 00:00:31
    Take time to warm up and cool down properly.
  • 00:00:35
    Never sacrifice good form and posture for the sake of lifting heavier weights or finishing
  • 00:00:41
    a set.
  • 00:00:42
    Boost your activity levels gradually. Unless you already exercise frequently and vigorously,
  • 00:00:49
    work your way up to a strenuous routine rather than starting with it.
  • 00:00:53
    Don’t train too hard or too often because
  • 00:00:56
    this can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles,
  • 00:01:03
    and inflamed tendons and ligaments. A mix of workouts, sports, and rest is a safer plan.
  • 00:01:10
    Pay attention to your body. Don’t exercise
  • 00:01:13
    when you’re sick or fatigued from overtraining. Fatigue may increase your risk of injuries.
  • 00:01:20
    If you stop exercising for a while, ease off
  • 00:01:23
    when you re-start by lifting lighter weights, choosing an easier workout, or doing fewer
  • 00:01:29
    reps or sets.
  • 00:01:31
    Stay hydrated while exercising, especially when it’s hot or humid. If you’re working
  • 00:01:38
    out especially hard, choose drinks that replace fluids plus essential electrolytes.
  • 00:01:45
    Choose clothes and shoes designed for your
  • 00:01:47
    type of exercise. Replace shoes or sneakers every six months because the cushioning wears
  • 00:01:53
    out.
  • 00:01:54
    Pay attention to sore muscles. Delayed soreness that starts 12 to 24 hours after a workout
  • 00:02:02
    and gradually abates is a normal response to taxing your muscles. By contrast, if you
  • 00:02:09
    have persistent or intense muscle pain that starts during a workout or right afterward,
  • 00:02:15
    or muscle soreness that persists more than one to two weeks, call your doctor for advice.
  • 00:02:22
    In hot, humid weather watch for signs of overheating
  • 00:02:26
    such as headache, dizziness, nausea, faintness, cramps or palpitations. On days when the thermometer
  • 00:02:36
    is expected to reach 80° F or above, exercise during cooler morning or evening hours or
  • 00:02:44
    at an air-conditioned gym.
  • 00:02:47
    Any time you exercise, it’s safest to call your doctor for advice if you experience notable
  • 00:02:53
    dizziness or faintness, chest pain or significant or persistent shortness of breath.
  • 00:03:00
    Be good to your body by exercising safely.
