预防肾衰竭

适合老少咸宜的运动

保持活跃的生活方式是所有年龄组保持身体机能和健康所必需的。
建议您:

  • 在进行任何体育锻炼之前完成PAR-Q检查表。如果您对任何问题回答“不”,请向您的医生咨询。
  • 尽可能增加体力活动,避免久坐的生活方式。
  • 逐渐增加运动时间、频率和强度,以获得持之以恒的效果和最低伤害风险。

体力活动与运动

有什么区别?

体力活动是指任何需要消耗能量的身体动作,如爬楼梯、在附近的公园散步或逛市场和做家务。

体育锻炼是体育活动的一个子类,是指有计划、有结构化地进行重复性运动,以达到健身目的和提高身体素质的活动。
运动和体力活动是两个不同的概念,经常被交替使用;了解两者的区别很重要,特别是当您开始为自己设定目标时。当然,运动和体育锻炼对保持健康的生活方式都很重要,所以让我们开始动起来吧!

我应该做多少运动?

FITT 表

使用以下的FITT方法可以让您创建一个适合自己身体的训练计划!它可以帮助您计划和调整您的训练,以避免沉闷,过度训练所造成的伤害和减肥失速。根据您的需要定制指导原则并记住:渐进式重载是关键!

活动 方法 成人 年长者
心血管运动 频率 每周至少2-4次 每周至少3次
力度 中度到剧烈 轻到中等
时间 150 分钟 150 分钟
种类 长时间的心血管耐力运动,如慢跑、游泳、跆拳道、舞蹈、自行车、划船、滑雪
力量和调节 频率 每周2-3次 每周2-3次
力度 中等到困难 低到中等
时间 每节课5-10次练习,针对多关节运动
每次练习:12-15次,2~3组
种类 体重、自由重量、阻力带、加重机
柔韧性 频率 每周2-3次
力度 低到中等(拉伸到轻微不适是正常的)
时间 每个肌腱复合体每次重复15到30秒,2到4组
种类 动态热身优于静态拉伸; 静态暖和运动以维护关节活动范围

运动强度可以通过以下的简单测试和指标来确定和记录。

方法一:自我问答测试

问答测试是确定您运动强度的一个简单工具。

如果当您在运动时,您能说话但不能唱歌,这代表您在进行的运动属于中等强度。更剧烈的运动会导致您只说上几句话就得停下来喘口气。

体力活动/运动水平分类 最高心率(%) 力度
久坐/没有习惯进行体力活动或运动 57 – 67% 轻微到中等
很少进行体力活动/不运动 64 – 74% 轻微到中等
偶尔进行体力活动/不运动或次优运动 74 – 84% 中等到困难
习惯性活动/定期进行中等到剧烈强度的运动(*洗肾病人不得尝试) 80 – 91% 中等到困难
大量的习惯性活动/定期进行高强度运动(*洗肾病人不得尝试) 84 – 94% 有点困难到困难

方法二:针对心脏率和心脏率区域

想知道您的最高心脏率(maxHR)的其中一种方法是从220减去您的年龄。例如:如果您是60岁,您的最高心脏率是220 – 60=160次/分钟。

最高心脏率 (HRmax) = 220 – 年龄

针对心脏率 = ((最高心脏率 – 静态心脏率) x % 训练强度) + 静态心脏率

*卡氏公式 (Karvonen Formula)

我的心脏率训练区域

适当的心脏率区域有助于为每个人确定适当的训练强度,从而有效地优化体能和表现水平。在准确的区域进行训练也可以将受伤的风险降到最低。

请输入您的年龄、静态心脏率和想达到的训练强度水平

次 / 分钟
(指我的心脏效率)  
百分比
(训练强度)

了解我的心脏效率

静息时的脉搏率测量可以确定心脏的功能和整体心血管的健康水平。如果您长期发现心脏需要加速跳动以更卖力的工作, 请立即与您的医生咨询,以免患上心血管疾病。

静息心率 = 每分钟心跳次数

*将中指和食指放在手腕上的桡动脉或颈部的颈动脉上,以确定脉搏的位置。

请输入在30秒内的心跳次数。

  心跳 (x2)

你的静息心率是     次 / 分钟

运动训练警惕:
这个公式结合了心脏率储备来计算最高心脏率和静态心脏率的训练区域,使计算更符合个人的健身水平。与最高心脏率(220除去年龄)的百分比相比,这有助于确定更准确的训练区域。试着根据你的个人心脏率区域进行锻炼,以提高心血管健康效益,并优化健身水平!

注意:

  • 患有疾病的人在试图加强锻炼前应咨询注册医生。
  • 这些建议符合美国卫生和公共服务部针对美国人的体力活动指南。改编自ACSM的运动测试和处方指南 (第8版)。

运动的好处

健美的体格永远不嫌晚!随着年龄的增长, 保持活跃的生活方式对您的健康更为重要。

运动的好处包括 (但不限于):

身理益处:

  • 增强整体身体机能
  • 降低跌倒风险
  • 减少骨质疏松症的进展/发病
  • 调节血压,降低二型糖尿病风险

心理益处:

  • 改善认知功能
  • 提高内啡肽水平,改善整体情绪
  • 减轻压力(增加去甲肾上腺素等神经激素的产生)
  • 调节身体昼夜节律(虽然定期运动能改善睡眠,但睡眠专家建议不要在睡前运动)

关于运动和衰老的迷思

年长者随着年龄的增长,往往会放慢生活脚步,变得久坐不常走动。原因有很多,可能是因为健康问题,体重或疼痛问题,或是担心摔倒。

克服身体和情感障碍以打造活跃生活的小贴士:

  • 将运动强度降低至低到中等,以符合您的需要
  • 尽可能增加体力活动,如日常散步、园艺、做家务
  • 参加俱乐部或社交活动有助于提高保持活跃的动力
随着年龄的增长,您的运动体能也跟着下降。

迷思:您越活跃,您的活动耐力就越好,您一整天可以做的事情也越多。

年长者随着年龄的增长,不能运动。

迷思:一项随机对照试验分析了200名60岁及以上受试者的家庭运动计划的效果。在项目结束后,对平衡能力、较低的季度力量和残疾评分的改善进行了评估。所有参与者均未发现不良健康影响。

Reference: Jette, A. M., Lachman, M., Giorgetti, M. M., Assmann, S. F., Harris, B. A., Levenson, C., Krebs, D. (1999). Exercise – it’s never too late: the strong-for-life program. American journal of public health, 89(1), 66–72.

年长者在运动时很容易受伤。

迷思:如果正确地进行运动,体育锻炼的受伤风险将对各年龄层有所降低。
