For many years it sounded that you should stretch before and after races. To loosen sole up the muscles. Then the new research that it had no impact on your muscles recovery and extent before the race could actually worsen your performance. Stretching could possibly increase your flexibility around joints, but was not essential compared to your race performance and subsequent recovery. How has it been heard in some years and the wording has changed very little until today. But that easy, is not the case when you have diabetes.
Dr. Sheri Colberg, who researches 'exercise and diabetes', note that limited joint mobility is a common problem in diabetic patients and in itself can result in damage and poorer quality of life. She mentions that rigidity occurs with age, but also by fluctuating blood sugar levels. How and what can be done?
The first natural solution is less fluctuation in blood sugar levels. But it is always the goal and something we always struggle with diabetes. Another solution, which can focus on a diet that is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants (e.g.. Vitamins E and C, selenium, copper, zinc) is a substance which can neutralize free radicals and therefore prevent damage to cells and tissues, as may occur with aging and in diabetics. Free radicals are involved in developing common diseases and disabilities among other cardiovascular diseases, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and age debility. Free radicals are not the cause of these diseases, but contribute to the tissue damage that triggers the symptoms. The body keeps under normal conditions a natural balance between free radicals and antioxidants, free radicals also have beneficial effects in metabolism. But the balance may be disturbed due to the formation of many free radicals, or because the antioxidant defense is lost. When exposed organism to oxidative stress, which can contribute to cause diseases, including stiffness or directly damaged joints. So flexibility is partly ensured through enough antioxidants in your diet and using supplements.
A third solution is flexibility training, sole including extent. Although the extent may reduce your performance and may not prevent damage, it has other benefits for diabetics. Studies show among other things sole that the state "frozen shoulder" sole (pain caused by severe irritation of the joint capsule around the shoulder) occurs frequently in diabetics. Therefore, diabetics do stretching and strengthening flexibility in the shoulder region. Stretching sole should sole in no way replace the ordinary sole physical activity but is essential complement to your physical activity.
After reading Sheri Colbergs article on the subject, I have become aware of my own rigidity in the body. My body is stiff and when I think about it, it increased with age. I am now trying to do stretching exercises at least once a week, preferably after than exercise (cycling or running). It does not sound like much, and it is not. But it's sole important for me to start small and ensure "success" with new initiatives, so I do not lose motivation. sole
