At one time, Peter Frantsevich Lesgafort is a doctor and the founder of the scientific theory of physical education in Russia - said about skiing: "Skiing is my clinic, pines - here are my doctors." Let's start with the fact that the skiing suggests, first, regular exercises in the fresh air, outdoors, and secondly, high loads not only on the musculoskeletal system, but also to the respiratory organs, on the cardiovascular system. This is the main advantages of skiing for our body.
Thus, classes of running skiing contribute to the saturation of the body with oxygen, normalize the work of the cardiovascular system in persons leading a low-wear lifestyle, strengthen general immunity, including respiratory organs, to viral and infectious diseases. At the same time, people who first start with skiing, it should be fixed not at high-speed indicators, but on calm ski rows on a low pulse.

To do this, it is necessary to determine the heart rate, the most allowed for your age. If you approach this issue responsibly, the risks of the problems of the cardiovascular system during the ski walk will be significantly reduced. A prerequisite for classes should be a workout before a ski walk, and after jogging on skis, it is necessary to pass 200-250 meters calm down, so that breathing and pulse returned to normal rhythm.
It should also be noted that sports, including running skiing, should be regular. Training once a month will not give any effect, but rather it will be harmful to the body, as it will lead to one-time changes in the usual functioning of the cardiovascular system. At the same time, there is no need to maintain the necessary physical activity in daily training. It is enough to engage in twice a week to keep your body, and a cardiovascular system including in the required tone.
Before starting training, you need to visit the cardiologist and check how ready you are ready for this sport, what loads can be optimal for you, which threshold of heart rate should not move. Without consultation with a cardiologist, I categorically do not recommend that by any kind of sports at the age of forty years.
