Evening Walk

Evening stroll is very important, you can take a look

Evening walks are a recent argument proposed through modern medical research and are currently highly recommended by many experts for the elderly. Sports medicine research shows that aerobic exercise is beneficial for elderly health care, and walking belongs to this type of exercise. Walking does not involve violent force, explosive force, or panting and hypoxia, which are all unsuitable for the elderly to exercise. During walking, the skeletal muscle groups rhythmically expand and contract, the peripheral small arteries are squeezed by muscle contraction, and movement increases accordingly. The function of the body's organs is also kept in the best state.

Medical experiments show that when people walk, capillaries dilate, blood flow increases throughout the body, microcirculation blood volume increases, which can effectively lower high blood pressure, regulate brain cortex function, and increase oxygen consumption and insulin efficacy, promoting insulin secretion. Taking the correct posture and method, walking exercise can achieve health benefits. Walking exercise requires both upper limbs to naturally hang down and sway lightly with each step, abdomen to be tightened and chest to be upright, with a lively and relaxed demeanor, maintaining body balance. Through up and down limb movement, it can drive the waist, abdomen, and neck. From a medical point of view, elderly people's walking should adopt a speed of 60-80 steps per minute or 80-100 steps at medium speed, the duration can be determined by oneself, but generally, the most effective walking exercise must last for at least 20 minutes, which promotes insulin secretion, because this is the minimum time needed to relax the body and enjoy the pleasure of walking.
