In the midst of this practice, there are people who question its impact on health and who seek to know its benefits and contraindications.
Running activates the mechanisms of energy expenditure and, with that, helps to accelerate metabolism, causing fat to be burned. In addition, practice releases endorphins, which provide an improvement in well-being, in the feeling of pleasure and satiety, which is linked to you being doing an activity frequently.
However, this activity needs to be in the right measure. Therefore, it will not do any good for a person to run wildly without having a goal and planning. Overrunning is called “over training” and can cause a lot of joint damage. It is necessary to check essential points, such as muscle reinforcement, training and joints.
There is still no recommendation or scientific evidence about the best time to practice exercises, including running.
“In this case, those with more adequate physical conditioning can do it on the slope without a problem. The important thing is to stay longer than 20 minutes and not exceed 60 minutes. Bearing in mind that on sloping ground it puts more stress on the joints. Those who have joint and spine changes can demand more muscle and cause pain. So whoever has those changes needs to be on stable ground.”said João Branco, doctor in the sports area.
Running is a practice that meets numerous health demands, including those who seek to lose weight. But it’s no use if it’s not accompanied by a light diet.
