What does it mean to be energetic? Five tips to make you energetic

When we see that a person's overall condition is very good, we can describe him as being in high spirits. During the National Day military parade, when the military formation passed through Tiananmen Square, every soldier was in high spirits. So being energetic is more about a person's appearance. If you also want to stay energetic, you can try the following five effective methods.

1. Do morning exercise for 5 minutes

Exercising for 5 minutes after getting up not only recharges your body but also doubles your calorie burning. Many people mistakenly believe that morning exercise requires getting up at 5 o'clock and running several kilometers. In fact, this is unnecessary and unrealistic. You only need to spend 5 minutes doing push-ups and jumping exercises to speed up your heart rate and achieve the ideal effect; or you can punch 100 times in front of the mirror and feel the process of energy accumulation.

2. Develop a habit of drinking water

If you are dehydrated, you will often feel tired. Drink a glass of water first thing in the morning to clean your body and add some "lubricant" to your internal organs; drink at least one liter of water every day, but more is not necessarily better.

3. Pay attention to breakfast

A study in the United States found that people who skip breakfast have a higher body mass index (BMI), which means they are overweight. They also tend to feel sleepy and lack the energy to do things. People who pay attention to eating breakfast are much more energetic and have a relatively well-proportioned body shape. The most nutritious and healthiest Western breakfast is: two slices of whole wheat bread. A piece of smoked salmon and a tomato. Whole wheat bread is rich in carbohydrates and fiber; the lycopene in tomatoes is beneficial to bone growth and health, and is good for the prevention of prostate diseases; the rich omega-3 fatty acids and protein in salmon are even more beneficial to the body.

4. Snack at 10 o'clock

Even if you have a good breakfast, by 10:30 a.m., the glycogen stored the previous day will be almost used up. If you want to feel recharged for the rest of the day, you must add a snack at this time. A piece of chocolate, or an energy bar. A few cookies can not only replenish energy, but also effectively prevent overeating at lunch.

5. Afternoon coffee

After lunch, the body's sleep factor (a molecule that induces sleep) increases, and this is when you are most likely to feel sleepy. Drinking a small cup of coffee at this time is most effective. Of course you can also drink tea, whatever you like! Don't forget not to drink coffee within 4 hours before going to bed, so as not to be too excited to sleep.
