In my last article I wrote about free radicals and what it can do to your body. My last article stated that free radicals can ruin the body and they come to the surface as a result of doing the wrong cardio exercises. In this article I want to expand a little more about the effects of doing the wrong cardio exercises. Here are 4 more side effects on your body as a result:
- Degenerative Joints: When you doing the wrong exercises, you can cause wear and tear to your joints and bones. So degenerative joints are joints that has a lot of wear and tear.Think about marathon (as well as triathlon) runners. These guys put their body and bones and joint under a heavy, steady load for hours at end. See how thin their muscles look as a result of that. Bones and muscles always go together, if you do not have strong muscles they will not support your bones and joints.
- Immune Function Reduction: Again, as a result of doing the wrong exercises, you can increase activity of free radicals, and that is linked directly to bad immune function. It is also worth mentioning that degenerative joints as well as the other two side effects I will mention below all contribute to a weak immune system.
- Muscle Waste: Look at marathoners physic, their muscles are wasted because they train all their lives for a steady pace running. Now look at 100 meter sprinters physic, like Usain Bolt. Good looking fellows, much more attractive than marathoners. This is because they train at bursts of excursion for their races, and that produce a lot of good stimulus in their body.
- Pro-inflammatory: Activity that promote inflammation. And this is again due to performing the wrong exercises.
All in all our body is one force. It function as a whole. That is why many people making a big mistake when they try to isolate muscles when the do their workout. So you can see from the four points above how one thing leads to the other and how if we are doing the wrong thing it can have a domino effect on our health, a negative domino effect that is.
In my next few articles I will lay out what GOOD cardio you can do to get fit and lose weight and why it is more beneficial to your body health wise. Stay tuned because there is more valuable FREE information to come.
