As an example of the consequences of not exercising, the COVID-19 epidemic has made many residents live a "stay at home" life. At first, people like living at home very much, but after a long time they will get bored. Let's look at an example of the consequences of not exercising.

Examples of consequences of inactivity 1 Long-term inactivity is more harmful to the body, and there are more than six kinds. Common diseases include disuse muscle atrophy, decreased cardiopulmonary function, obesity, psychological problems, accelerated calcium loss, and joint stiffness.

1, disuse muscular atrophy: all organs of human body follow the principle of using in and discarding out. If you don't exercise for a long time, your muscles will not be fully stimulated, and gradually your muscles will become smaller and weaker, leading to disuse atrophy;

2, cardiopulmonary function decline: long-term non-exercise, cardiopulmonary function can not be effectively exercised, cardiopulmonary function can not be fully stimulated, cardiopulmonary function will become worse and worse, resulting in a slight physical activity will lead to panting;

3. Obesity: Body energy is a dynamic balance. If you don't exercise for a long time, the consumption will be reduced, which will easily cause excess energy to be stored in the body in the form of fat, leading to obesity, which will lead to a series of health problems, such as hyperlipidemia.

4. Psychological problems: Due to the accelerated pace of life, some people are facing much greater life pressure than before, and various psychological problems such as insomnia, anxiety and depression have also increased dramatically. Dopamine and other substances will be produced during exercise, which will make people feel happy, comfortable physically and mentally, and effectively relieve various negative emotions caused by stress. Therefore, if you don't exercise for a long time, the secretion of dopamine and other substances will decrease, and people's negative emotions will gradually accumulate, which will easily lead to various psychological problems;

5. Accelerated calcium loss: human bones are in a dynamic metabolic process, and stimulation such as exercise will accelerate bone reconstruction and strengthen the utilization of calcium. Long-term inactivity will lead to decreased bone metabolic activity, accelerated calcium loss, and even lead to osteoporosis.

6, joint stiffness: long-term non-exercise, the flexibility and coordination of the body will be greatly reduced, joints will also be reduced because of long-term non-exercise, resulting in joint stiffness.

In addition, long-term inactivity will lead to physical decline and fatigue. At the same time, gastrointestinal peristalsis will also slow down, especially in the elderly, which is easy to indigestion, such as abdominal distension and constipation.

The consequences of not exercising are 2 1, getting fat.

If you don't exercise for a long time, the most obvious change in your body is obesity. Regular exercise helps to promote the metabolism of the body. If you sit still for a long time in life, fat cells may continue to divide and grow, which will not only make people obese, but also make the skin loose and lose elasticity.

2, hands and feet are not flexible

If you don't exercise for a long time, your body will lose calcium. Over time, your hands and feet will become stiff and inflexible, which will affect your actions and may increase the incidence of orthopedic diseases such as osteoporosis and hyperosteogeny.

3. Toxin accumulation

Exercise helps the human body to sweat, so that toxins in the body can be excreted more effectively. But if you don't exercise for a long time, your body will easily accumulate toxins, which will easily cause constipation, bad breath and dull face.

4. Insomnia and poor memory

Without exercise, the accumulated stress can't be released well, and you may have negative anxiety and depression, which will lead to insomnia. Poor quality sleep will directly affect your memory!

5, cardiopulmonary function decline

Exercise is a good way for us to prevent and treat diseases. If you don't exercise for a long time, the activity ability of limbs will gradually decline, and the cardiopulmonary function will gradually deteriorate. Therefore, simple actions such as climbing stairs and doing housework can easily make you breathless.

6. indigestion

A sedentary and unhealthy diet will weaken your digestive system, lead to insufficient gastrointestinal exercise, and constipation will follow. Long-term inactivity will slow down gastrointestinal peristalsis, thus affecting digestive function and easily causing digestive system problems such as indigestion, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, diarrhea and constipation.

Example 3 of the consequences of not exercising the "general's belly" has long appeared.

"General's belly", "Apple's waist", "Lohan's belly" and "bead" can actually be called "abdominal obesity", "central obesity" and "visceral obesity". This figure not only affects the appearance, but also indicates the risk of illness.

This obese figure has more pathological significance. Excess fat not only propped up the general's stomach, but also accumulated on internal organs, causing metabolic diseases such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, gout, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

People are not old, and "meat" has declined.

Muscle atrophy and decrease is an important sign of human aging. Studies have shown that the skeletal muscle mass of people decreases by about 50% between the ages of 20 and 90, the muscle strength decreases by about 65,438+05% every 65,438+00 years after 50, and by about 30% every 65,438+00 years after 70.

If young and middle-aged people lack exercise and the total muscle reserve is insufficient, the middle-aged and elderly people will lose muscle faster in the future, which will lead to bad consequences such as difficulty in standing, stumbling, easy fracture and weakness, which will seriously affect their physical function and quality of life.

Bones will become more "brittle"

The strength of human bones is closely related to bone mass. People around the age of 30 have reached the peak of their lives. Since the age of 50, bone mass has decreased by 0.5% ~ 1% on average every year, and postmenopausal women have decreased by 3% ~ 5% on average every year.

The lower the bone mass, the higher the risk of osteoporosis, and the bones are also "used in and discarded". Long-term inactivity will make people fail to reach the ideal bone mass, and the bones will easily become "brittle", which will increase the risk of fracture.

Be more prone to chronic diseases

According to the data of the World Health Organization, the overall incidence of physical inactivity in adults aged 5 and above is about 31.1%. 2 1% ~ 25% of breast cancer and colon cancer, 27% of diabetes and 30% of ischemic heart disease are closely related to physical inactivity. 10% of non-infectious deaths can be attributed to physical inactivity.

According to the World Health Organization, physical inactivity is the number one killer of chronic non-communicable diseases, and it is also the fourth risk factor for the rising mortality of non-communicable diseases.

People will become more and more ugly.

If you don't exercise for a long time, coupled with unhealthy diet and unbalanced energy intake and consumption, you will be malnourished or overnourished. The former will be too thin and weak, while the latter will be overweight and obese, which will seriously affect your personal image.

If you add mental stress, it may cause endocrine disorders, induce the most distressing hair loss, and skin problems such as facial acne.

I often feel exhausted.

With the increase of age, muscle strength will gradually decline and bone mass will continue to lose. If you don't exercise for a long time, this situation will become more and more serious and eventually affect the quality of life.

The decline of muscle strength and bone mass will make people feel more tired, sore and weak all over, sweating, bone pain, and often feel exhausted and depressed.
