The doctor advised the residents of Sverdlovsk on how to start exercising.
Physical activity should become a daily part of life. With this call, the chief freelance specialist of the Ministry of Health of the Sverdlovsk region in sports medicine, Mikhail Chuloshnikov, addressed the residents of the region.
According to experts, people's health depends 50-55% on lifestyle, 20% on the environment, 18-20% on genetic predisposition, and only 8-10% on healthcare, reports the Information Portal of Yekaterinburg.
"Everyone can choose the type of physical activity or sport that suits them. But before deciding on a choice, one should undergo a health check-up. Examinations will help identify chronic diseases, if any, and the doctor will provide recommendations on which type of sport is beneficial for you," noted Mikhail Chuloshnikov.
According to the doctor, the minimum physical activity regime that a person should adhere to daily is 10,000 steps.
"If you haven't been involved in sports for a long time, you should start with small loads and preferably under the supervision of a coach. The main rule is consistency: workouts should be 3-4 times a week and last at least one hour," summarized the specialist.
As regular activities, he recommends swimming, cycling outdoors, or long walks.
