According to the doctor Kirill Antonov, even a light one without jogging can be dangerous for the body of people who are overweight.
Physical activity and sports are considered an indispensable element for getting rid of extra pounds. But overweight people need to do exercises (especially intense ones) wisely. Antonov, a doctor, warned in an interview that being active in sports increases their risk of heart disease. With intense exercise, a temporary rise in blood pressure occurs. If, with existing obesity, there are already some problems with the heart, such a jump in pressure can cause a serious complication, up to a possible heart attack.
In addition, exercising while being overweight places an increased strain on the joints, which are already under additional pressure from body weight. In particular, during jogging, excessive stress is placed on the knees. The doctor advised to abandon it – swimming and exercising in the water would be more useful.
