Running for 40 minutes every day, does it delay aging or accelerate aging? You might as well understand in advance
In fact, during the process of running, we also need to pay attention to some methods and methods. If we run correctly, we can delay aging, but if we do it wrongly, we will accelerate aging.
Running can fight aging
In fact, when people age, it starts from the brain. For women, they can do more brain exercises in daily life, such as memory, writing, etc., which can improve the activity of the brain.
By insisting on running, it can enhance cardiopulmonary function, improve the activity of the body, reduce the production of free radicals , delay the aging rate, and have a good fat burning effect.
Especially for women, as they age, they are prone to obesity. Running can prevent middle-aged weight gain, improve joint flexibility, and help maintain a youthful state.
No matter which kind of exercise you choose, you should do some stretching exercises before starting or ending the exercise, so that the effect will be more obvious.
According to research, cells in the human body have 23 pairs of chromosomes, and each pair of chromosomes has 4 telomeres. telomeres can protect chromosomes, but as age increases, telomeres will shorten, so people will gradually age.
During the entire process, telomerase can control the shortening time of telomeres. If telomerase can be activated, telomere stability can be ensured and aging can be delayed.
Through some high-intensity interval training and endurance training, telomerase can be activated. Therefore, running in daily life can effectively delay the aging rate of the body.
Especially running for 40 minutes a day can increase metabolism, delay bone degenerative changes, help prevent bone and joint diseases, and delay aging.
In addition, running for 40 minutes can also enhance cardiopulmonary function, increase the frequency of heart beating, speed up blood circulation, and enhance the elasticity of blood vessel walls.

Excessive exercise
During the running process, if you exercise too much, it is easy to make people look older. On the one hand, the running volume is too large, and on the other hand, the intensity is too high.
If you run too much for a long time, the body will be overwhelmed, which will accelerate aging. Moreover, if the running intensity is too high, people will feel particularly tired, which will accelerate aging.
Because after excessive exercise, free radicals in the body tend to increase, attacking macromolecules in the body, causing damage to the body and aging easily.
