As a healthy living habit for modern people, exercise is generally accepted by everyone, and more and more people include exercise in their daily plans. However, while enjoying the health and happiness brought by exercise, everyone may also be troubled by exercise injuries.
My original unit had a finance department chief named Jia in his early forties. He played basketball well and had a tall figure when he was young. He was busy with work and gradually became less and less. Once, he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of young people and invited him to participate in the game in the work area. As a result, he accidentally strained the Achilles tendon on the right heel, causing an accidental work injury.
He himself didn't expect: Although he has not played basketball frequently in recent years, and he has also warmed up before the game, why did he get injured? If you say it out, others don’t believe it, but you are still athletic? So depressed!
As a kind of aerobic exercise, yoga cannot avoid such troubles.
Everyone must be curious. Why do some people who practice yoga, some of them, or coaches who have practiced for many years, get hurt? After a certain period of practice, hasn’t the flexibility of the body been enhanced? Haven’t the muscles and fascia in common areas also stretched?
In fact, everyone has misunderstood that people who practice yoga will also have a risk of injury, but the risk of injury will be greatly reduced than those who do not practice, or the degree of injury will be reduced, and the recovery speed will be faster.
When my son was in the first year of high school, I had not practiced yoga at that time. Once I supported my left palm on the bed to get something, but the cartilage on my left wrist was injured. After nearly a month of treatment, the doctor said that even if it was cured, I had to pay attention, so I could not catch a cold or lift heavy objects. Including when I started practicing yoga later, I also paid great attention to individual unsuitable poses, so don’t force myself.
One year in November, my husband and I went to Sanya for a trip. One day after breakfast, I waited outside the restaurant for him to pay. I was bored at that time and walked around the same place. But after not taking three or four steps, my left ankle sprained and then my right foot sprained. At that time, both ankles were painful. Unexpectedly, it would be fine after a while. I also said to my husband who walked out: Isn’t this flat ground a bit evil? I didn't do anything with my travel shoes and sprained my legs. Fortunately, it was fine, otherwise it would have been in vain. Later, I thought about it, maybe it was related to the fact that my ankle fascia had been opened after practicing yoga.
Once during class, she heard a teacher Liang say that one winter night after class, she was walking home because she was darker and couldn't see a large piece of ice on the ground. As a result, she fell down and slid out of an vertical cross pose. She had nothing to do, so she got up and continued walking.
People like us are still lucky, and some people don’t have that good luck. For example: If you are anxious when you have a meal, your teeth will bite your tongue, which hurts.
Before National Day this year, our teacher Yan Zi came to class. Before class, she said in advance: I won’t do individual poses because I have suffered a minor injury, so I will come to you to guide you more. At that time, an old student asked: Why do those who practice yoga frequently get injured? The teacher said: It was not because I was injured in class, but because I was walking fast yesterday. I accidentally stepped on an unstable stone. The two toes next to my big toe on my left foot twisted. It didn’t hurt at first, but I was in class normally, but when I got home, I found my toes swollen...
may be injured when I didn’t exercise much, let alone when I exercise, something might happen, but if I have something wrong with myself, it’s not a bad thing to pay attention to.
When I first started practicing yoga, I was fortunate to meet a very pure yoga instructor, Mr. Wang. At that time, she was only in her thirties, not tall, beautiful and fair-skinned. Especially her pleasant voice was a perfect match for her unique soundtrack. When I admire her asanas, it was a kind of enjoyment of flowing water and light body. At that time, she taught the Ashtanga Yoga , which was more powerful.
I haven't seen her for a while and thought she was going to Beijing for further studies. Suddenly one day she came to class and brought big black sunglasses. After asking, I found out that she had a retinal shedding surgery (because she was highly myopia) and is currently recovering. Later she began to change the direction of class, focusing on static extension, stretching, twisting and other poses of Hata Yoga .
Because of this, I know that people with high myopia above 600 degrees should not do headstands, because high intraocular pressure can easily cause retinal detachment.
You don’t have to worry about being unable to do a certain pose. There are 70,000 to 80,000 yoga poses, and there are many asanas taught by the teacher in each class. There are always the that suits you. Just make appropriate choices based on your physical condition and taboo matters.
People with hypertension should try not to do head downward poses as to avoid dizziness; don’t think that women can’t take yoga classes if they have menstruation. Based on my experience of those who have experienced it, in fact, as long as it is not the most for the two days in the middle, you can take yoga classes. However, you can only do a position with the buttocks below the head. This way of performing postures with breathing is conducive to the rapid downward excretion and smoothness of menstrual blood, and can effectively relieve menstrual discomfort.
You can't be so scared that you dare not walk because you may be injured. You can't be so scared that you dare not exercise because you may be injured. After all, the benefits of exercise will far outweigh the harm. Just be careful and you must practice correctly. The same is true for Gazing people. They are not those who practice yoga, but "iron" people will not be hurt. You can "slightly hurt" anywhere, but you can't "harm" your heart to exercise or yoga.
Thank you for your attention, I am "Garen Life Paradise".
