Exercise guidance for female patients with hyperlipidemia:
The exercise therapy for female patients with hyperlipidemia should take into account their physiological characteristics. Participation in physical exercise is beneficial for weight loss, lipid reduction, overall physical strength, and endurance improvement for women with hyperlipidemia. Exercise can also strengthen pelvic muscles, abdominal muscles, maintain the normal position of internal reproductive organs, and prevent female diseases such as uterine prolapse and abnormal uterine positioning.
Exercise for weight loss in women should be selected based on age and personal interests. Young women can choose activities like walking, swimming, gymnastics, and hula hooping. Middle-aged women may consider walking, practicing Tai Chi, cycling, with walking being particularly suitable for weight loss. Researchers have monitored individuals engaged in walking exercises and found that walking at a speed of 4.8 kilometers per hour for 20 minutes approximately 45 minutes after a meal results in rapid calorie expenditure, which is most conducive to weight loss. Walking for another 20 minutes approximately 2-3 hours after a meal can enhance the effect further. Additionally, joining a fitness club and practicing lipid reduction, weight loss, and aerobics is an excellent choice.
