How to overcome stomach pain when running

Running is now a very popular way of fitness, but many friends who are not used to running are prone to stomachaches when they first start running. The stomachache here actually refers to our abdomen in most cases. Because many friends don’t know much about the running techniques when they first start running, it is easy for them to get gasps in the abdomen, and in this case, it is easy to have stomach pain.

Running Tips

1. It is very important to do some warm-up exercises. You can also drink some glucose.

2. Don’t be nervous, because the rapid heartbeat caused by nervousness will disrupt your breathing rhythm after you run, affecting your performance.

3. After the start, follow the main group and try to run in the front position, but don't take the lead, and don't fall behind to save energy, otherwise it will be difficult to catch up later. It is best to find a companion who runs slightly faster than you and try your best to follow him closely.

4. Control your breathing and make it even. Take bigger steps. Try to maintain a consistent pace throughout your run; a good pace will make long runs easier.

5. When it comes to the last hundred meters or tens of meters, you can sprint. This does not contradict the previous point because this is the most critical time. If you don't have the energy to sprint, then maintain your original speed and persevere to the finish line.

6. Never stop to rest immediately after running, especially do not lie down or sit down immediately. After running, the whole body is exercised, and all parts of the body should be slowly relaxed. It is recommended to walk for a few hundred meters after running, and then do some exercises of the waist, abdomen, legs and arms within your ability after the whole body is completely relaxed.

7. Wear lighter running shoes during the competition. It is best not to wear basketball shoes or sneakers. Not all sports shoes are suitable for long-distance running, and it is best not to wear new shoes. The most suitable shoes are running shoes that have been worn for a while and fit your feet but are not too worn out (long-distance running is different from short-distance running. You have to land with your heel first, so you must not wear spiked shoes).
