Jogging for beginners needs specific instructions to avoid as many accidents as possible. Besides, running properly will help you quickly achieve success such as losing weight and improving health.

When there are underlying medical conditions that want to run, the patient needs to follow the doctor's instructions for jogging properly:
For people with high blood pressure: It is necessary to control blood pressure before jogging. Run properly with a gentle start and then gradually increase the intensity if approved by your cardiologist. For people with type 1 diabetes: These subjects will be at risk of hypoglycemia when playing sports, so it is necessary to have proper running technique under the advice of a doctor. According to Doctor Nguyen Khoa Binh - Vinmec Nha Trang, each person should exercise 150 minutes/week with moderate intensity or 75 minutes/week with intense intensity and spread out every day of the week. To get good results when running, each person needs to practice perseverance and have the right running technique. To help increase excitement during running, people can listen to music while exercising, join a run with a group of friends, schedule a suitable exercise, and monitor themselves.
