Benefits of squats in controlling high blood sugar

HẠ MÂY (THEO ABOLUOWANG) |

Squat exercise is one of the simple exercises but has a positive impact on controlling high blood sugar.

To do squats, we need to stand with our hands clasped, our feet shoulder-width apart, and our knees slightly bent. Then perform a deep squat with your body straight, without bending your knees too much. After each bend and stretch, pause for 1-2 seconds before and repeat the action.

Doing 20-30 reps/set can increase the strength and flexibility of the quadriceps. People with weak physical strength can do squats with their backs against a wall.

It is also a strength training exercise because it uses more muscles. This helps burn calories, increase muscle mass, improve daily metabolism, especially blood sugar control.

Regular squat practice will help strengthen the body's heart and lung function, reduce physical fatigue, and relax the mind.

We should exercise for about 30 minutes each time. Avoid overtraining, rest enough to repair and rebuild muscle fibers, thereby improving muscle strength and endurance. We do it 2-3 times a week.
