　　Things to note when practicing yoga

　　1. Yoga is easy to practice on an empty stomach.

　　It is best to practice three to four hours after a meal, and about half an hour after drinking fluids. If there are other regulations in the practice, do not follow this rule. In addition to eating well, which will cause exercise stomach ache In addition, other preparation activities such as insufficient preparation can also cause abdominal pain.

　　When the human body suddenly transitions from a quiet state to an active state without any preparatory activities or insufficient preparatory activities, the gastrointestinal tract will be vibrated due to running and jumping, and the intestinal peristalsis will also change, causing digested food and residue to accumulate in the ileocecal region. Therefore, pain may occur due to this expansion and stimulation.

　　In other words, if you only ate one apple during this meal, you only need it to be digested and you can start practicing when your stomach is empty. As long as your stomach is empty and you don't jump up and down immediately, causing gastroptosis, or easily causing food to enter the non-digestive tract, it's fine.

　　Drink fluids for 30 minutes before practicing again. Do you have this feeling? After drinking water, whether you go for a run or exercise, do you feel like this: your stomach is "thumping" like a water bag.

　　You will be embarrassed and uncomfortable, and your gastrointestinal tract will also be uncomfortable, so we should not practice immediately after drinking water. If a friend is really thirsty, he or she can take a small sip, preferably within 60 ml.

　　2. When doing various yoga exercises, be sure to stretch your body gently at the edge of your limit, and never push or pull hard. Any movement beyond your limit is a wrong exercise.

　　There is a word here that you may not be very clear about. What does it mean to be on the edge of the limit? To paraphrase a popular lyric, it is pain and happiness. I stretched forward until I could no longer bear it, but at the limit of my stretch I felt the joy of movement.

　　That's it. If you change it to pain and suffering, then it definitely won't work. I can't pull it like the teacher did. If I pull hard, the muscles will tear and strain. If you stay a little further, you will be in pain and suffering. Although I am still a little far away, I am in pain and happiness, which is the edge of the limit.

　　Gentle stretches, controlled exercises. Don't push or pull too hard. Yoga is considered to be a sport with few sports injuries for thousands of years. But now, more people are getting injured while practicing yoga. Is yoga bad? No, it’s because everyone didn’t follow the rules of the game. Note, be sure to pay attention to this.

　　When doing various yoga exercises, you must gently stretch your body at the edge of your body's limits, and never push or pull hard.

　　3. If you feel exhausted or tremble during practice, please stop and resume immediately, and do not insist too much.

　　You may have experienced such a situation. For example, when doing a boat position, have you ever experienced muscle tremors? Yes, why is it shaking? It's because of muscle fatigue. For example, if I ask you to perform the Sun Salutation twenty times when you are extremely tired, you may go on strike.

　　The same goes for muscles, which are shaking so much that they can’t hold on anymore. Why do you have to force them? They will get injured. So, when you are exhausted and you can’t do it yet, don’t force yourself to do it.

　　Don't be frustrated by what you can't do. As long as you practice regularly, over time, your body's tolerance will become stronger and stronger, and your physique will get better and better.

　　Summary: Yoga is a way of health care, especially for male friends. It can relieve stress in life and work, change body shape, increase resistance, etc. Male friends, hurry up and practice it!
