What to do if your child has low lung capacity

There are also great differences in children's lung capacity. If the child is more lively and active, his lung capacity will be relatively larger and his physical fitness will be relatively better. On the contrary, if the child is usually less active and does very little physical exercise, then the child's lung capacity will be relatively low. Actively participating in physical exercise can effectively improve the child's lung capacity and physical fitness, which is very helpful for the child's growth and development.

Swimming: Because water puts pressure on the lungs and increases the requirements for respiratory function, swimming is better than running in exercising lung capacity. It is currently the best way for primary and secondary school students to increase their lung capacity. Although the weather is cold during the winter vacation and swimming is not as easy to do as during the summer vacation, many fitness centers have heated pools and teenagers can also choose to swim in winter. It needs to be emphasized that swimming is not the same as playing in the water. Repeated swimming is helpful in improving lung capacity. The exercise method is similar to variable speed running. You have to swim out quickly and then swim back slowly, with a distance of 50 meters, and swim back and forth repeatedly.

Skipping rope: It not only exercises the lung function, but also helps to increase height, as well as enhance the body's coordination and sensitivity. There are two options when skipping rope: quick jumping and fancy jumping. The former is multiple jumps in a short period of time, while the latter emphasizes changing postures. You can jump once and swing the rope twice, or lead someone to jump, or jump forward and backward. Push-ups: They not only exercise upper limb strength, but also help lung capacity. Do dozens of reps continuously each time according to your personal ability. If it is too difficult to do it on the ground, you can support yourself with your hands on the table.

Riding a bicycle: Choose a relatively open road with few vehicles. An uphill section is best. Hold your breath and ride quickly up the hill, going back and forth several times.

If a person's lung capacity is relatively large, it means that the body's oxygen supply capacity is stronger. Our body's organs can function more effectively only when there is sufficient oxygen supply. Long periods of work, study or exercise may consume a large amount of oxygen in our body. If the lung capacity is low, it will cause dizziness, chest tightness, and decreased concentration.
