How to workout safely and properly? How to lose weight fast without diets?
Sometimes fitness exercises are far from the most effective, and they can even cause irreparable harm to our health, especially if you do them the wrong way.
Here is a list of the most popular but dangerous exercises along with safer replacements.
– The excessive load from twists increases the pressure on vertebrae, and it may cause traumas. Also, in case you have a sedentary job, the vertebral discs are heavily loaded during the day. With body lifts, we load them even more. The front of the discs is compressed, and the back is stretched. Therefore, pain in the lower back and neck appears.
– The main danger is that the hands are in an unusual position, and the joints receive a heavy load. Shoulders and elbows also don’t move in the traditional position, and this can lead to dislocations, strains, and small cracks.
– Side twists are considered effective for the side stomach muscles. As with ordinary twists, they’re dangerous for your spine and discs.
– Forward bends with dumbbells. Here, again, our back is the first to suffer. And when doing the exercise incorrectly, there’s a risk of stretching the muscles and causing spine injuries.
– Dumbbell bicep curl. Why is it dangerous? Any work with weights in a standing position strongly loads the spine. Also, this exercise involves only a few muscles. If you aren’t a professional athlete working under the supervision of a coach, you should replace this exercise with a more effective and safe one.
– Thigh muscle fitness equipment. The main drawback of such equipment is that you can get a severe distension. And even if the installed weight seems comfortable, the ligaments can still suffer.
– Dumbbell French press. Why is it dangerous? During the exercise, a large load goes to the elbow joints. Also, the French press should be done only with a perfect technique (because of the high traumatic risk).
