Improperly Doing
These Exercises
Will Age You:, Here’s How
to Do Them
Correctly.
Although exercising offers plenty of health benefits,
it’s easy to push yourself too far and overdo it. .
Some exercises, if done too frequently or not done
properly, can actually cause you to age faster. .
Here are five exercises that can age
you and how to avoid it.
1. Burpees can cause some serious wear-and-tear
on your knees when done with improper form.
If you lack sufficient mobility, try
other heart rate-boosting exercises like
rowing, jumping jacks or jump squats.
2. Overdoing cardio workouts
can cause you to burn through your muscle.
Try to perform 2 to 3 weight sessions
per week to maintain your muscle mass. .
3. If your workout routine
consists only of heavy lifting,
you’re more likely to strain
your body and get injured.
Try including low-impact workouts
and yoga into your weekly routine in order
to let your body sufficiently heal and grow. .
4. Although hot yoga is a popular trend,
working out in an enclosed, heated space can actually
exacerbate muscle cramping and dehydration. .
Achieve the same results in a more comfortable
environment by sticking to traditional yoga routines.
5. If you go too hard when running,
sprinting or jogging, your body may end up
burning muscle and other healthy tissue. .
Instead, replace some of your workouts
with bicycling, as it is a low-impact exercise that still
hits all of your legs’ major running muscles
