??ugly side effects of not stretching after exercise, says science

科学表明，运动后不拉伸有着严重后果?

far too many people—even hardcore?exercisers—view stretching as an annoying and optional chore for bookending their workouts. even worse, it’s something that they’ll skip after exercise for no other reason than they can’t be bothered to actually do it.?

很多人（甚至是铁杆的运动爱好者）认为拉伸是结束锻炼后一件烦人的、可做可不做的事。更糟糕的是，很多人在锻炼后会跳过拉伸，不为别的，就是单纯不想做。?

after all, you’ve just run a few miles or completed a totally killer hiit circuit—and your body feels warm, loose, and great—so who cares about going through a tedious stretching routine?

毕竟，你刚刚跑了几英里，或者完成了一套艰难的hiit训练——你的身体感觉温暖、放松、很棒——所以谁会在意那些乏味的伸展运动呢??

well, we all should. science shows that stretching isn’t actually literal—you’re not even “stretching” your muscles at all. in fact, the true purpose of stretching is to lengthen and mobilize the connective tissue around your muscle, which does wonders for both your joints and your muscles.?

其实，我们都应该做拉伸。科学表明，拉伸并不是字面意思那样——你甚至根本没有“拉伸”你的肌肉。事实上，拉伸的真正目的是延展和调动肌肉周围的结缔组织，这对你的关节和肌肉都有神奇的效果。?

what’s more, stretching helps your blood flow, reduces your risk of injury, helps you lose weight, and—as millions of yoga practitioners across the world will tell you—even relieves your stress.

更重要的是，拉伸有助于血液流动、减少受伤的风险、 助你减肥，而且，正如世界各地数以百万计的瑜伽练习者会告

诉你的那样，它甚至可以 助你缓解压力。?

you’ve probably heard a million times that stretching is crucial after a workout. well, newsflash: it’s true. whether you’ve just rowed 20 minutes on an erg, you’ve been walking the steps at your nearest high-school football stadium, or you’ve gone through an amazing weightlifting routine, it’s crucial for you to take a few minutes to stretch after sweating.?

你可能已经听过无数次，锻炼后拉伸是非常重要的。好吧，这个观点是正确的。无论你是刚刚在跑步机上跑了20分钟，还是在离你最近的高中足球场做了些活动，亦或是做了激烈的举重练习，对你来说，在出汗后花几分钟伸展一下身体是至关重要的。?

if you don’t, it doesn’t do your body any favors. for more on what happens to your body when you skip your post-exercise stretching, read on.

如果你不这样做，它对你的身体没有任何好处。如果你不做运动后的伸展运动，你的身体会发生什么，请继续阅读。?

you could feel sick

你可能会感到恶心?

you won’t be surprised to know that when you exercise, you raise your heart rate for a period of time. while it’s great to get that blood flowing, the experts at austin physical therapy will tell you that it’s just as important to “get your heart rate back to a normal level after the workout is over.” this is also known in the fitness world as “cooling down.”

当你在锻炼时，你的心率会有所提高，这一点无需惊讶。虽然让血液流动很好，但奥斯汀物理疗法的专家会告诉你，“在锻炼结束后让你的心率恢复到正常水平”同样重要。这在健身界也被称为“降温”。?

“after physical activity, your heart is still beating faster than normal, your body temperature is higher and your blood vessels are dilated,” write the health experts at the american heart association. “this means if you stop too fast, you could pass out or feel sick. a cool-down after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode.”

美国心脏协会的健康专家表示：“运动之后，你的心跳仍然比正常情况下快，体温也更高，血管会扩张。这意味着，如果太快停下来，你可能会昏倒或感到恶心。运动后的‘降温’会让你在运动结束后逐渐平静下来。”?

your muscles will likely become?stiffer and more sore

你的肌肉可能会变得更加僵硬和酸痛?

when you exercise your muscles, it produces an inflammatory response in the form of lactic acid, which is actually what causes your muscles to become sore. when you rest—or “recover”—in the time between bouts of exercise, your body naturally breaks down and gets rid of that lactic acid.?

当你锻炼肌肉时，肌肉会产生炎症反应释放乳酸，这正是导致肌肉酸痛的原因。当你在两次锻炼之间休息“恢复”时，你的身体会自然分解并代谢乳酸。?

one thing that helps your body dispose of that lactic acid? you guessed it: stretching. stretching helps your distribute oxygen throughout your body and muscles, which, according the healthline, “can reduce lactic acid production and rid your muscles of any accumulation of lactic acid.”

有没有方法可以 助身体排出乳酸？你猜对了：拉伸。据healthline网站称，拉伸可以 助你将氧气分配到全身和肌肉，“可以减少乳酸的产生，并消除肌肉中积累的乳酸。”
