Although we think it is less tiring than usual when we are not in motion, it is not actually so. When you stand for 20-30 minutes continuously, the pain in your legs will be much more than the pain when walking. The reasons for this are actually related to the relaxation of the muscular system in our legs.
Come, in this article, let us tell you why you are more tired even if you do not do any work while standing and how your leg musculature works!
Leg Anatomy 101… Your muscular system wants to activate your body.
You are constantly using fewer muscles the longer you stand. Since the human body has not evolved to stand motionless before, we can say that your body is actually warning you to take action.
Your muscles start to get tired due to the use of a small amount of muscle, and you involuntarily put more load on either your right or left leg to maintain balance. This causes you to have leg pain.
Not only that, your muscles have to stay tense all the time as gravity keeps you upright all the time. That being the case; Muscle fatigue in the legs, back and feet, varicose veins, pain due to stiffness in the neck and shoulders become an inevitable situation.
Additionally, standing in one place for a long period of time reduces the amount of oxygen going to your muscles, so we experience more pain. So, we can briefly summarize it as follows: The amount of oxygen and muscle pain are inversely proportional.
Walking, running and moving relaxes your muscular system.
Being in a constant state of motion will increase oxygen respiration and, together with mixing with the blood, can relax your leg muscle system and reduce your fatigue. Such activities also positively affect your mood and maximize your energy level. Being in motion is essential for our body!
We can say that these activities, which are known to increase the production of endorphins (happiness hormone) and blood flow, help you to calm your muscles.
Now that we have this information, we invite all our readers to exercise to relax your body in this beautiful weather! We cannot finish writing about the benefits of movement to the body, nor can you finish reading them.
