What is Jogging?

Jogging is a low impact form of exercise which involves running slowly at a pace of six miles per hour. Some other light impact exercises in addition to jogging are stair climbing, swimming, cycling or walking instead of jogging. We will discuss these later.

Beginning with jogging

The best time to jog is in the morning. So set your alarm and wake up around six in the morning. If you find that difficult, make it 7 am. But beyond that you will not be able to get the maximum benefit of jogging. This is because early in the morning, the air is fresh and the oxygen content in the air is high. When you jog in the mornings and gasp for breath your lungs are filled with oxygen which is needed to burn off calories. As the day progresses, the oxygen content in the air reduces and thereby you lose something you could have so easily got if only you got up a few hours early.

You can also use indoor jogging track but the best way to go jogging is by going out of your house in the open. The beach is a good place to jog, but the best place is a garden with plenty of trees. These areas are rich sources of oxygen early in the morning.

Getting ready to go jogging

Jogging can be made more beneficial by drinking a lot of fluids, especially water. After getting up in the morning do not eat anything. Just wash your mouth and drink at least half liter of water. Don't drink too much as you will have difficulty running. Make sure that you do not eat anything and leave the stomach empty. If you feel too tired, you can carry along some fruit juice that you can drink on the way. Citrus fruit juices are the best.

Warming up

Before you start to jog, warm up your body. You can do this by skipping or jumping in the same place. Sit-ups and stretches are also a good way to warm up your body. Once you feel energetic, start to jog slowly. Do not jog for more than a kilometer for beginners. You can slowly increase the area you jog as the days progress and your body gets used to the jogging schedule.

What to wear while jogging?

While jogging, wear something lightweight. Do not put on tight pants. Keep it loose. This is because, your body will sweat as you jog and loose clothes will ensure proper perspiration. Keep in mind that the more you perspire the better. Take it as a sign that your body is burning down those calories and fat.

What to do when feeling too tired?

If you are just starting out, then chances are that you might feel too tired at times. If this happens, stand or sit down in one place and practice deep breathing. Inhale deeply and fill up your lungs with air. Drink energy fluids like fruit juices. This will help you get back on your feet and jogging in less time. Hope these jogging tips helped you.

So until then.. happy jogging!
