Then the principle of the second sport must also be in accordance with the ability. This means that the intensity or weight of the exercise needs to be measured by calculating the heart rate.
Third, do sports rules such as warming up or warming up before exercise. Also do cooling down or cooling down after exercise. In addition, the type of exercise is also adjusted to the physical condition.
