Some notes:
- Exercise machines with many modern devices have fast effects, but must have separate training programs for each body type. If you exercise too much with machines, you will become exhausted, discouraged and will not bring the desired results.
- Aerobic exercises are designed to move quickly and continuously, so they are not suitable for people with a history of cardiovascular disease, asthma, high blood pressure, or cerebral anemia. In these cases, you should choose exercises with a slow-speed treadmill and not overdo it.
- Women after 3 months of giving birth can start light exercise with a treadmill or free-hand exercise with a gradually increasing pace to help your body become firmer but cannot regain shape, especially for those who are breastfeeding, the body's nutritional metabolism is taking place strongly. In particular, women after giving birth should not start with abdominal exercises or abdominal exercise machines because it can stretch and damage abdominal muscles that have not yet fully recovered.
