The expert told under what conditions running can do more harm than good.
People have been talking about the benefits of running for a long time, but this type of exercise is not suitable for everyone. In some cases, running can do more harm than good, said Alexander Shelepov, a traumatologist and orthopedist at Medicina.
So, according to the specialist, people with high body mass index should not run. They should start exercising under the control of a trainer, and avoid treadmills, the expert assured.
In addition, running can be dangerous for people with cardiovascular diseases.
Also, before training, be sure to be a warm-up, and start running gradually. Overloading the body may lead to knee pain or exacerbation of chronic diseases, the doctor was quoted by RIAMO.
