Rest days: Arrange 2-3 rest days per week to allow your body to fully recover.
Body signals: Pay attention to body signals, such as pain or discomfort, and adjust your plan or take a break when appropriate.
Gradually increase: Do not increase your total running volume by more than 10% each week to avoid overtraining.
posture and gait
1. Head and neck:
Looking ahead:
Keep your head naturally straight and look forward, avoid lowering your head or looking up.
Neck laxity:
Avoid neck tension and keep your head and neck in a straight line with your spine.
2. Upper body:
To lift the chest and tighten the abdomen:
Keep your upper body straight and tighten your core muscles to stabilize your body.
Relax your shoulders:
Let your shoulders relax naturally downward and avoid tightening and raising your shoulders.
3. Arms and hands:
90 degree bend:
Keep your arms bent at about 90 degrees, with your elbows naturally close to your body.
Light palm grip:
Make a gentle fist with your palm, avoid clenching your fist, and relax your hand muscles.
4. Lower body:
Footsteps on the ground:
Land on the middle front foot and avoid landing on the heel to reduce the impact.
Knees slightly bent:
The knees are slightly bent to slow down the transmission of impact force and reduce the risk of injury.
Hip Stabilization:
Keep your hips stable and avoid swaying from side to side.
5. Stride length and cadence:
Moderate stride length:
Use a moderate stride length and avoid steps that are too large or too small to reduce the burden on your joints.
Moderate cadence:
Normal cadence is usually 160-180 steps per minute, which can be adjusted according to individual conditions.
6. Lean forward:
Lean forward slightly:
By leaning slightly forward, you can help increase speed and reduce the impact on your knees.
Not leaning too far forward:
Avoid leaning forward too much as this may put additional strain on your waist and back.
7. breathe:
Take a deep breath:
Breathe deeply to ensure that enough oxygen enters the lungs and is supplied to the moving muscles.
Breathe naturally:
Breathing should be easy and natural and should not feel out of breath.
posture adjustment
Listen to your body: Pay attention to your body's signals. If you feel discomfort or pain, adjust your posture or slow down your pace.
Regular inspection: Regular inspection and adjustment can be carried out through professional running posture analysis or the guidance of a coach.
heart rate control
Understand your maximum heart rate and target heart rate zone, which can be monitored through heart rate monitoring equipment.
According to the training goals, adjust the exercise intensity to ensure training within the appropriate heart rate zone and avoid overtraining.
maximum heart rate
A simple way to estimate this is to use the formula: 220 minus your age. For example, if your age is 25, your maximum heart rate is approximately 195 beats/minute (220 - 25).
Note that this formula is a rough estimate and may vary between individuals. A more accurate way is to determine your maximum heart rate through a professional test such as an aerobic endurance test.
target heart rate
1. Light exercise zone:
60%-70% of maximum heart rate
This range is suitable for long-term aerobic training, such as jogging or walking.
Suitable for beginners, rehabilitators or those doing low-intensity training.
2. Moderate exercise range:
70%-80% of maximum heart rate
This range is suitable for moderate-intensity training, such as running at increased speed.
It is suitable for people who have a certain foundation in exercise and want to improve their cardiorespiratory fitness and endurance.
3. High-intensity exercise zone:
Above 80% of maximum heart rate
This range is suitable for high-intensity interval training or short periods of high-intensity training.
Suitable for people with higher athletic levels and goals, such as training for running races.
Please note that these are general recommendations and individuals will vary, so it is best to consult a doctor or professional trainer before starting a new training program to ensure that the heart rate target is appropriate for your individual circumstances.

Hot and cold compress
Use cold compresses when needed to help reduce inflammation, especially after injury or overuse.
1. Apply cold compress at the right time:
It's best to apply a cold compress immediately after exercise or shortly after exercise to minimize muscle pain and inflammation.
2. Don’t apply too much cold compress:
The cold compress time should generally be between 15 and 20 minutes. Avoid excessive cold compress to avoid tissue damage. Prolonged cold application may cause condensation injury.
3. Use appropriate cold compresses:
You can use ice packs, ice cubes, ice packs or cold compress patches to apply cold compresses. Try to avoid applying ice directly to your skin and use a thin layer of cloth or cold compress for protection.
4. Moderate oppression:
Applying a cold compress can help reduce inflammation and swelling by applying moderate pressure. When using an elastic bandage or cold compress, be careful not to tighten it so as not to affect blood circulation.
5. Avoid applying cold compresses to the injured area:
Avoid applying cold compresses to injured or infected areas to avoid worsening the injury or infection.
6. Keep warm after applying cold compresses:
After the cold compress is completed, try to avoid staying in a cold environment and keep the area affected by the cold compress appropriately warm.
7. Step by step exercise:
After cold compress, do not engage in strenuous exercise immediately. You should conduct appropriate warm-up activities and then gradually engage in normal exercise.
8. Follow professional advice:
If there is a specific injury, it is best to seek the advice of a doctor or medical professional before applying cold compresses.
Use heat to relax tense muscles and promote blood circulation.
1. Timely hot compress:
It is best to apply heat when there is tension or pain in the muscle area that needs to be relaxed. Heat compresses are usually best used before exercise, activity, or at bedtime.
2. Moderate temperature:
Use moderate temperatures and avoid using items that are too hot to avoid burns. Generally speaking, a hot compress temperature of around 40 degrees Celsius is relatively safe.
3. Moist heat and dry heat:
Moist heat (such as hot water soaking, hot towels) usually penetrates the skin more easily than dry heat (hot water bottles, electric blankets), but care must be taken to avoid excessive heat when using it.
4. Appropriate time:
Hot compresses generally last 15 to 20 minutes. Avoid prolonged hot compresses to prevent adverse effects on the skin or tissue.
5. Protect skin:
When applying hot compresses, use a damp cloth or appropriate hot compress tool to prevent excessive heat from irritating the skin.
6. Areas to avoid applying heat:
Avoid applying heat to areas that are already inflamed or injured or showing signs of infection. In these cases, applying heat may worsen the problem.
7. Rest and keep warm:
After applying hot compress, give the muscles enough time to rest, while keeping the muscle parts properly warm to avoid staying in a cold environment.
8. Follow professional advice:
If you have a chronic illness or special injury, it is best to seek advice from your doctor or medical professional before applying heat compresses.
Massage and physical therapy
Regular massage can reduce muscle tension and promote the elimination of waste products.
Physical therapy can help manage chronic injuries and improve the effectiveness of sports.
Diet and Hydration
Eat properly
Eat an appropriate amount of carbohydrates 2 to 3 hours before running to provide adequate energy.
Schedule:
Eat a well-balanced, staple meal of carbohydrates, protein, and some healthy fats 2-3 hours before your run.
carbohydrate:
Staple meals should include complex carbohydrates such as whole wheat bread, oats, vegetables, etc. to provide long-lasting energy.
protein:
Foods containing moderate amounts of protein, such as chicken, fish, beans, etc., help maintain muscle mass.
Moisture:
Maintain adequate hydration, but avoid overdrinking.
Energy supplement during running:
For long or high-intensity runs, consider bringing energy supplements such as energy gels, sports drinks, or energy bars to provide extra energy.
Supplement protein in time after running to help muscle repair.
Consume a mixture of carbohydrates and protein within 30 minutes of running to promote rapid muscle recovery. For example, milk, yogurt, fruit and oatmeal mixes.
Avoid overeating immediately after a run and maintain a reasonable portion of your diet.
Hydration
1. Drink water before running:
1. Hydrate in advance:
Drink water in advance before running to ensure your body is fully hydrated. Depending on individual differences, drink about 500 ml of water 1-2 hours in advance.
2. Avoid drinking too much water:
Avoid drinking too much water before a run as this may cause an upset stomach. Adjust your water intake based on your weight, temperature, running distance, and personal habits.
2. Drinking water while running:
1. Adjust according to body feeling:
As the run progresses, adjust the amount of water you drink based on your personal feelings and sweat loss. Moisture needs vary widely among different people and under different weather conditions.
2. Drink water regularly:
It is recommended to drink water every 15-20 minutes. Use a sports bottle or a pre-set water schedule to ensure you are constantly hydrated.
3. Avoid excessive drinking of water:
Drink water in moderation and avoid excessive drinking, which can cause hyponatremia (overdiluted body fluids).
3. Drinking water after running:
1. Hydrate as early as possible:
Replenish lost fluids as soon as possible after running. Within 30 minutes of running, drinking water or a sports drink can help quickly restore fluid balance.
2. Measuring moisture loss:
You can roughly estimate the amount of water lost during running by measuring changes in body weight, and replace it accordingly.
3. Consider electrolyte supplementation:
Long or high-intensity running can cause electrolyte loss, so consider drinking a sports drink that contains electrolytes, especially in hot environments.
4. Observe the color of your urine:
Urine color can be an indicator of your body's hydration status. Light yellow urine usually indicates adequate fluid intake, while darker yellow may indicate dehydration.
Other nutrients
Most people get enough nutrients from a normal diet. If you have special health needs, dietary restrictions, or exercise intensity, you can consider whether you need additional nutritional supplements with the advice of your doctor or professional nutritionist. Avoid unnecessary oversupplementation, as certain vitamins and minerals may have negative health effects in excess.
