Pole and second respiration phenomenon and its causes

"Pole" and "second respiration" is a common physiological phenomenon in long-distance running, the pole appeared sooner or later, with the The early or late appearance of the pole is directly related to the physical fitness and training level of each person. In order to face them comfortably in the process of running, runners should strengthen the exercise and improve the body's ability to adapt to the exercise, which can delay the time of the emergence of the poles and reduce the symptoms. When the poles appear, reduce the exercise load appropriately and deepen the breathing, the abnormal reaction can be gradually relieved or disappear.

What is Pole Phenomenon?

The human body in the intense exercise, due to the beginning of the exercise stage of the internal organs of the activities of the organs lag behind the needs of the organs of the movement, often produces a very difficult feeling, at this time, feel difficult to breathe, muscle pain, slow movement, depressed, simply do not want to continue to exercise, this state is called the "poles".

What is the second breath?

After the emergence of the pole, with personal will and perseverance to continue to adhere to the movement, with the regulation of function and the improvement of internal organ function, oxygen supply increases, lactic acid removal accelerated, the inertia of the vegetative nerve center has been overcome, the phenomenon of the emergence of the pole and the symptom will gradually disappear, the physiological process will appear a new balance. This phenomenon is called "second breath" in exercise physiology. At this time, the breathing becomes even and deepens, the movement feels brisk, and the discomfort gradually disappears.

"Pole" and "second breath" are common physiological phenomena in long-distance running, and the appearance of the pole sooner or later is directly related to each person's physical fitness and training level. In order to face them comfortably in the process of running, runners should strengthen the exercise and improve the body's ability to adapt to the exercise, which can delay the time of the poles and reduce the symptoms. When the poles appear, reduce the exercise load appropriately and deepen the breathing, the abnormal reaction can be gradually relieved or disappear. Subsequently, the movement becomes easy and coordinated again, and the exercise ability is improved again.
