This is part two and final part of our story. Enjoy
Tip: do not
do any of the exercise immediately after taking a meal. If you go swimming
straightaway after a

meal, you are likely to be drowned in the water, no matter how good you can swim. So take plenty of time at most two hours to rest before major exercise.
Walking: Walk is very easy. Nearly every
person can walk. Exception is the physical challenged ones in the leg or hip.
Even a slight deformation like inequality in the length of the leg can enable a
person to walk.
Many a person
will not like to walk a short distance. Because transportation is cheap, you
paid a small fare.
You get to your address within 10 minutes so to speak.
But do you know that you can walk ¼ of a mile within 20 minutes?
You get to your address within 10 minutes so to speak.
But do you know that you can walk ¼ of a mile within 20 minutes?
A brisk walk
can cut down the time to 15 minutes.
I am not
saying that you should not drive your car or take a taxi, a bus, to such a
small distance if time is not on your side.
But make
walking a part of your physical activity.
Walking will
benefit you more than cycling.
Now, take a
brief walk round a football field or a law tennis court if it is nearby.
Or else,
take a brief brisk walk round the country side and enjoy the natural scenery.
I remember
my second daughter getting up to walk. In fact she showcased it so well that it
was a thrill to me and others.
A brisk walk
includes taking a wide stride and swinging the hands that do some good to the
shoulder as well as the chest.
Take a good
look at competition walking or Olympic meet. See how the competitors move their
body. Even the neck is brought into vital play. Your entire body will benefit
from a brisk walk.
The immerse
benefits you get from walking as an activity included:
Your legs
become stronger. The muscles of the thigh and ankles become well develop and
coordinate.
Your hip
bone becomes strong. It is the hip bone that supports the upper part of the body.
Walking as
an exercise increased the heart beat. The rate of breathing in and out
increases and thus, the lung is supply with more oxygen and blood. This
eliminated waste matters like carbon dioxide from the body.
More
benefits that you derived from walking include increased energy output.
Your
digestive system will work well and digested your food well. After two hours or
more of taking a meal, a short walk round the country side will impact more
health and nutrient benefit to the body.
Start
walking. Coordinate it into your exercise plan. Make a sound plan to walk round
a school compound, a church yard or a short street to and from in the morning
before taking your bath and going to work.
Or you do it
in the evening before watching that streaming video on scream.
You can wear
anything you like to go for a walk. But avoid bikinis.
A pair of
tennis shoes with a short and T-Shirt or a jogging jersey is idea.
In actual reality,
you can wear any comfortable clothing that suits you for a walk.
Jogging: Jogging or slow running befits
personal health. It is a world in itself. Welcome. Its many and varied benefits
surpass other running activities.
I jog
regularly once in the week. I jog ¼ of a mile because I have other bodily
activities like swimming
incorporated into my weekly exercise routine or experience.
incorporated into my weekly exercise routine or experience.
On the last
Friday or Saturday of the month, I jog a mile.
It takes me
at least 60 minutes because I go briskly and slowly.
You should
learn to make jogging into your exercise plan.
As an
example, I scheduled Mondays for jumping jack, press ups and downs and push and
pull, etc. These are exercise that I and you can do in the living room.
Wednesdays
are more of a body building. On Thursdays, I find time to relax my nerves and
muscles on the river. In other words, I go swimming.
My friend, I
do not know about you.
How you plan
your physical activities is up to you. It is at your convenience.
Jogging will
benefit you more if you go slowly and briskly, provide you jog more than half a
mile in the week. But begin with ¼ of a mile or less. This loss the joints and
muscles of the legs, tights, hips, and so on.
Otherwise,
you may feel very uncomfortable with joint and muscle pains, including the chest
and heart pains.
Remember a
sound physical activity do not give pain to the body. It brings with it sound
health benefits.
Here I
recalled the first time I jog more than a mile in preparation for a local cross
country marathon.
Although I made it, I feel pain all over my body, especially the ankles, legs, muscles, joints and had a hard time finding my breath.
Although I made it, I feel pain all over my body, especially the ankles, legs, muscles, joints and had a hard time finding my breath.
I went to
see my doctor for medication. Prescription including pain killer were
prescribed for me. I got some relief. I never has venture so again without some
warming ups before any form of bodily exercise.
Do not jog
if you cannot take a short walk.
The risks are
heavy on the negative side.
It can
result in heart failure in some cases.
It can end
in fainting and or mental disturbances. In one cross country race, one runner
fainted and kept shouting “Olotu, Oloto, take time.” Olotu was our History
teacher. Whether the runner had a grudge against him, I do not know. He was
taken to hospital and given a syringe prink, and became calm.
I have seen
it happen more than once.
Try jogging
for only ¼ of a mile or less to begin with. This will prepare you well for the
next level.
I prefer to
go jogging early in the morning. Some prefer the evening when the over head sun
sink in the horizon.
Whatever
your preferences, jog morning or evening, once or twice in the week.
A fat person
can use jogging to reduce weight, while a thin person can use this tool to
build strength and stamina.
Provide this
is done twice a day morning and evening; and twice in the week. One should
schedule certain day say Tuesdays and Thursdays on a regular basis for these
actions or the plan to loss weigh will be a failure.
What gains
do you get from jogging apart from losing weight as mention above?
Transportation
of blood and food nutrients all over the body is assured. Digested food
material including oxygen is distributed freely round the body.
It reduced
educed cholesterol in the blood. Unwanted cholesterol and fat in the body is
breaks down or it is burnt and oxidized to release energy for other bodily
activities.
Jogging
builds stronger bones. Jogging is more powerful than walking. The more you jog
regularly, the stronger and more powerful your bones become. Osteoporosis is
thus eliminated.
Jogging
brings with it the benefit of mental alertness. Jogging will enable you to be
more mental alert. You think straight and positive.
It reduced
heart disease. Heart related disease like diabetes, high blood pressure are
done away with. Your heart beat will become regular, and hence, low blood
pressure is eliminated.
Jogging
induces relaxation. After a jogging session, you can rest well and relax.
Think of a
good outfit to go for a jogging. A pair of tennis shoes with soaks is okay.
Wear a long
sleeve jersey with matching trousers. Your jogging suit should be comfortable.
This will keep your body warm and prevent a cold seizure if you are jogging
early morning.
Shorts are
idea for jogging in the evening if the weather is hot or rather warm.
Otherwise, wear a long sleeve jersey with a trouser and matching pair of tennis
shoe as said above.
The story so
far can be useless if we do not think about food to eat.
Have a well
balanced meal including fruits and vegetables two hours before attempting any
of these activities.
