Hello everyone,
So I hope you liked our last blog on health of students during exams. It was about diets.
So, now lets continue. This time we will be talking about the exercise students should do during exams.
Well, during exams, students should opt for a light intensity exercise routines, which involves cardio and stretches. Much time taking, or Vigorous exercises are avoidable. Because after this you will require much rest and recuperation, and I do not think that you will like to waste time on it. Sports like badminton can be played for a short time. It will give a refreshing break from studies as well as will increase circulation of blood. It will also boost energy levels and in turn productivity will increase. But, be careful about one thing, that you don't harm or injure yourself. You won't like wasting time taking the cause as fracture. Avoid tiring yourself and to do that set limits like about 30 minutes.
You can also follow a good routine. When you wake up, and do your chores, try to go for a little jog. Head outdoors, preferably to a park. Carry water and a yoga mat. Start with taking at least 5 deep breaths and then start walking. Walk for five minutes. Then you can start jog for about 20-25 minutes. After that you can do shoulder, hip or waist rotations, forward-backward bending and side stretches. If you think you are ashamed of doing this. Then try going a little early, sometimes as early as 7 am or 6 am. At that time, there are more likely to be less people. And if there are people, don't worry as they have nothing to do with you. They will maybe even take you as their inspiration. Don't think that this is bizarre, because this is exactly what most healthy people do. So you must do it too.
If the park is far away, then you can do jogging and walking even outside your house. Then you should do stretches as soon as you get home. You should do cat stretch for at least 3 times, Cobra stretch for about 5 times and Rabbit stretch for about 20 seconds. After this you should lie down for a while and do shavasana. Lie down on your stomach and with head to one side or on the back, leave all muscles free and yes do not forget that you have a exam to go, So don't sleep away. For about a minute, let the body relax. This will act as a power nap to your body.
When you are sitting for long durations, after every half an hour take a break for about 5 minutes. In this time, you should walk around for some time. Take a glass of water. And if you want you may listen to some music. Don't listen to catchy songs. And also I don't recommend somewhat so much latest songs such as that of Yo Yo Honey Singh or Badshah. Classical musics are recommended. If your lower back feels strained, bend the hands on your hips. To relieve your neck and upper back and hold the stretch for a few seconds. Repeat this three times. Raising your shoulder up to your ears and then bringing them back to the relaxed position a few times also releases strain from neck and upper back. You can also do tadasana for a few times to relieve yourself.
So I hope now you know your routine. Do this. This is necessary for your health as well as your exams. We do hope that you find it useful!!! Do not forget to do it now....
