How to exercise lung function How to exercise to improve lung function

Keep your arms straight, palms down, lift forward, keep your palms down, slowly and forcefully spread your chest to your sides, and then withdraw from both sides to your sides. Inhale when the arm is raised, and exhale when the arm is retracted. When you start practicing, you can do it 50 times and gradually increase it to 100 times.

Step 2 stretch

Straighten your arms forward and upward, and slowly and forcefully extend to the back of your head. The upper body can also be slightly bent backwards to make the shoulder joint reach the maximum range of motion as far as possible, so that the shoulder joint has obvious "aftershock" feeling, and then the arms contract to both sides. Inhale when the arm is raised, and exhale when the arm is retracted. Repeat 30 to 50 times.

Step 3 take a deep breath

The arm stretches naturally, and the palm is outward and upward, so as to guide the arm to slowly extend outward and upward (that is, to lift obliquely), and then inhale deeply. Before turning the palm, the arm falls forward in an arc. Then bend forward and down as much as possible and exhale as much as possible. Do it 50 times. Note: At the beginning of practice, because you are not used to it, the time for exhaling and inhaling may be very short, and you will often feel bored, which will gradually extend. After a period of practice, the author can last 15 ~ 18 seconds at a time.

Step 4 jog

Jogging is an effective and simple way to exercise lung function. Jog for 300 ~ 500 meters at a time. Pay attention to breathing naturally when running, don't hold your breath.

5, abdominal breathing exercise

After finishing the first four methods, you can choose an outdoor dry place, preferably a place with flowers. Practice abdominal breathing. You can do it indoors in rainy days, but open the window. The specific method is: relax, take a natural sitting position, stay in the abdomen, and take a deep breath slowly. When inhaling, imagine the fresh breath of nature, enter the lower abdomen, and the lower abdomen naturally bulges slowly; When exhaling, the abdomen should contract inward as much as possible, and the breath should be exhaled slowly. Breathing should be light, thin, deep and long, without sound. Practicing "reverse breathing" is beneficial to dilate the lower lobe of lung to maintain good vital capacity. Each exercise should be no less than 15 minutes. After practicing for a period of time, it is best to keep each practice lasting about 30 minutes.

The above five methods are simple, and you should practice them once every morning and evening. If it can be sustained, it will obviously help to improve the function of respiratory system and enhance vital capacity. Interested friends may wish to give it a try.
