Effects of Over Exercise
- Uncontrollable Thirst
- Debility
- Breathing disorders
- Bleeding disorders
- Tiredness
- Cough, Fever and Vomiting etc can be caused due improper and over exercise.
Exercise done in proper and required manner is good for the body , but if done in excess can hurt the body . According to Ayurveda half of the strength of an individual must be used for doing exercise and proper relaxation and stretching must be done before and after working out. Oil massage and hot water bath is good for those who do exercise. Oleation and bath should be taken only after the complete settling of sweat. Diet of the people those who do exercise must be natural ( natural food is suggestive for all, because it is healthy) and should be a balanced diet .
