Can exercise fight aging?

In daily life, our bodies need sufficient water and energy to reduce aging. Many people do not pay attention to their physical health due to excessive exercise. Over time, the aging phenomenon will be further aggravated. In normal times, we must pay attention to strengthening the heart through more aerobic exercises and regulating body sweating, because it can open pores, promote body metabolism, and increase body qi and blood consumption.

Radiant complexion: Sweating is more effective than applying a mask

If you want to delay skin aging, detoxification, moisturizing and nutrition are essential. If toxins cannot be discharged, spots and acne will easily appear. If moisturizing is not done well, the skin may become dry and cracked. If nutrition is not sufficient, wrinkles will appear. Exercise can kill three birds with one stone and solve all skin problems.

"Exercise usually causes sweating, and sweat can expel dirt and free radicals from cells. So, after sweating during exercise, our skin will feel comfortable and refreshed, which is more effective than any number of facial masks we apply." Ding Liling, associate researcher at the Health Qigong Management Center of the State Sports General Administration, said, "Exercise sweating can also stimulate the secretion of skin and cell oils. Appropriate oils are natural moisturizers that are suitable for each person's physique and are non-irritating. In addition, exercise speeds up blood circulation, and the nutrients and water in the blood can be effectively transmitted to skin cells. When the skin is well fed and well watered, the entire skin will be full of elasticity and youthful."

Strong heartbeat: Aerobic exercise strengthens the heart

There are two manifestations of heart aging. One is the weakening of myocardial strength, and the heart beats less powerfully; the other is the blockage of the vascular circulation pathways within the heart. Although heart aging is inevitable as we age, it can be slowed down through persistent exercise.

Ding Liling introduced that exercise can increase myocardial strength. When you exercise, your heart will naturally beat faster, the heart's ability to pump blood will increase, and the myocardial strength will be exercised in the process. In addition, exercise can accelerate blood flow, break down blood lipids, keep cardiovascular blood vessels clean and unobstructed, increase blood vessel elasticity, and improve blood viscosity.

"There are many aerobic exercises that can exercise heart function. Common ones include jogging, swimming, aerobics, mountain climbing, cross-country walking, rope skipping, various ball sports and brisk walking. It is best for young people to do jogging exercises, and for middle-aged and elderly people to do brisk walking, swimming, etc." Zhou Qinlu, a researcher at the Beijing Institute of Sports Science, introduced.
