Combat Back Pain By Swimming

Swimming can be the ideal sport when it comes to fighting back pain. But to do that, it has to be done right. Swimming and exercise in water in general has many advantages. Swimming is often brought into play, especially when it comes to fighting obesity and for people with joint problems.

But the back can also be strengthened with the right technique. According to their own statements, about half of the people in Germany go to the swimming pool at least sporadically. If you're not one of them yet, you should think about it for the sake of your back!

The Best Techniques For Back Pain     

The insidious thing about back pain is that it is usually treated too late. You can prevent almost all types of back problems with preventive exercises. Swimming is great for prevention and to strengthen your back muscles, but even if the pain is already there, jumping into the water can help. It is important to maintain regular breathing. The constant alternation of relaxation and tension is essential for swimmers who want to do something good for their back. Regardless of whether you prefer the breaststroke or the crawl, the head must be submerged rhythmically under water in both techniques. If you always keep your head out of the water, your neck and upper back muscles will cramp after a short time. You should also avoid looking ahead when crawling. 

Tips And Techniques

You exhale when your head is under water. The ascent phase must logically be used to inhale, but does not last long enough to also exhale above the water surface. This sounds obvious, but as a beginner swimmer, it is important to remember these simple techniques at the beginning of the training session and to use them purposefully so that incorrect posture does not impair the positive effect. Swimming training is particularly effective if you vary between backstroke, breaststroke and crawl swimming. Each style has its strengths, with crawl swimming in particular demanding the back muscles due to the constant rotation of the entire body.

What You Should Know About Glutamine

Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid, which means that glutamine can be produced by the body itself. Glutamine is synthesized primarily in the liver. Glutamine is also produced in the kidneys, brain and lungs. However, the body can only produce glutamine itself if other amino acids are also involved in the synthesis. The essential amino acids such as isoleucine and valine are particularly important for this. The highest abundance of glutamine in the body is found in muscle cells. Glutamine is mainly responsible for water retention in cells. This causes the cell volume to increase during muscle training. Glutamine has a positive effect on building muscle and burning fat. Even more detailed, study-based findings about glutamine can also be found on the Internet.
