REASONS NOT TO EXERCISE
If you
want to keep your heart healthy and your cholesterol
count low, you have to be fit and exercise
regularly. But sometimes exercise is not good for
your health. Doctor Etherington gives you some tips
when you shouldn’t exercise:
When you’re ill
Don’t
exercise when you’re unwell, even if it is just a
cold.
When you were ill
Don’t
rush back to your normal exercise routine after you
were ill. When you decide to return to the gym, make
sure you start your workout slowly and with care.

When you’re feeling stressed
There are days
when you don’t feel like going to the gym, or sometimes
your body can be telling you to take a break. If you take
a day off, you’ll have more power afterwards. So go home
and have a healthy meal.
When
you have an injury
Make sure that your
injury is healed before you go back to training.
Otherwise you could injure yourself again. If you
have an injury that is still painful after 24 hours you
have to see a doctor.
When
you haven’t got the correct equipment
Make sure you buy the best equipment
you can afford. Don’t just follow the latest fashion trends,
because if you don’t have the right equipment you can injure
yourself.
When
you’ve got a hangover
If you’ve got a hangover from the
night before, think twice before going to work out. Don’t
exercise if there is any chance that you are still
drunk.
When
you’re pregnant
You can exercise throughout your
pregnancy as long as a) you fell like it b) your GP
and midwife have said you can. While the advice is
to keep fit throughout your pregnancy, the emphasis is on
maintaining fitness, not improving. Pregnancy is a
nine-month workout in itself. If you decide to exercise when
pregnant, get professional advice after your third month on what
you should an should not do.
After your baby is born
However desperate
you are to retrieve your figure, you have to wait six
weeks before you can start gently exercising, or 12 weeks
if you’ve had a C-section.
What
if I just lack of motivation?
The main piece of advice is to
be sensible: think about your motives for exercising and why you
don’t want to exercise. Be honest with yourself. If you
really just can’t be bothered, maybe you are finding your
exercise programme boring. If that’s the case, it’s time you
shook up your routine a little. Try adding new forms of
exercise that interest you such as in-line skating, dance
classes or aqua aerobics. Finally, remember how many times
you’ve said: I don’t feel like it and come away saying: “I
really glad I did that!”.
