      1. You have just finished exercising and it is not advisable to drink heavily after you feel thirsty. After sweating a lot from labor and exercise, it is not advisable to drink a lot of plain water. You should add some light salt (sugar) water appropriately, because after sweating a lot, the body loses too much salt, accounting for about 0% of the sweat. About 5%, if salt is not replenished in time, the proportion of water and salt in the body will be seriously imbalanced, leading to metabolic disorders.

    2. After exercising, replenish water in time but drink less drinks. Beverages such as juice, cola, Sprite, and soda contain a lot of saccharin and electrolytes. Drinking too much will cause adverse irritation to the gastrointestinal tract and affect digestion and appetite. Therefore, you should drink more boiled water or lightly salted (sugar) boiled water in summer.

    3. The most intense time for solar shortwave radiation is around 10:00-15:00. You should try to avoid going out during this time. If you have to go out, you should go out at skin Apply some sunscreen and skin care products, and wear light-colored clothing in summer.

    4. The nap time before exercising should not be too long. If you take a nap for too long, your central nervous system nerve It will deepen the inhibition, and the relative reduction of blood flow in the brain will slow down the metabolic process, causing the whole body to feel uncomfortable and more sleepy after waking up.

    5. The diet after fitness should not be too light. In summer, people are active for a long time, sweat a lot, and consume a lot of energy. They should eat more nutritious foods such as chicken, duck, lean meat, fish, and eggs to meet the body's metabolic needs.

    6. Do not turn on the fan immediately after returning home from exercise, or take a cold shower immediately. This will quickly close the pores in the body and make it difficult for the body's heat to dissipate. It will also cause insufficient blood supply to the brain due to rapid contraction of blood vessels in the brain, making people dizzy.

    7. Metal jewelry should not be worn during fitness. Some metals in metal ornaments are stained with sweat. When worn, the skin in contact may appear reddish or itchy, which can easily lead to contact dermatitis.

    8. After returning home from exercise, the temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor air conditioners should not be too large. It is advisable to use an air conditioner where the indoor and outdoor temperature difference does not exceed 5 degrees. Even if the weather gets hotter, the indoor temperature of the air conditioner should not be lower than 24 degrees.

    9. After exercising, it is not advisable to drink too much. The human body is easily affected by the temperature in summer, and it is easy to accumulate dampness and heat. Excessive dampness and heat is the cause of skin sores, carbuncles, and swollen skin. Drinking a lot of liquor will increase heat and dampness, which is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
