JAKARTA - There are several signals or signs from the body that require a person to rest immediately or reduce the burden of their activity. These signs range from discomfort in the chest, shortness of breath, to palpitation of the heart.

"If you start to have chest pain, you feel uncomfortable in your chest, then your breath is short, shortness of breath, your heart is shaking, you have to be aware that your body is tired," said heart and blood vessel specialist dr. Dony Yugo, SpJP from the National Heart Center of Harapan Kita Hospital, quoted from ANTARA, Friday, February 17.

During exercise, for example, Dony said someone should immediately rest if the pulse has exceeded the limit. The normal pulse when exercising weight is 220 minus age.

"For example, he is 40 years old, meaning a maximum of 180 per minute. If it is more, rest, reduce the intensity. But if you rest, the normal is 60 to 100 times per minute," explained Dony.

Meanwhile, according to cardiac and blood vessel specialist dr. Dicky Armein Hanafy, SpJP (K) who also practices in the same hospital, added that someone also needs to do exercises to identify body signals that require him to rest.

According to Dicky, these exercises can be done regularly by exercising. He said that by exercising regularly, a person can easily make an assessment in case of changes in physical abilities.

"For example, if you exercise regularly for example jogging an hour a day, then suddenly half an hour is really tired. Or, we usually go up three floors in the office and that's okay, this is just one floor I can't afford it. That's what alarms are," said Dicky.

"But for people who are lazy, never jogging or cycling or other sports, never go up the stairs, how does he know that he has a change in his body which is actually an alarm?" he continued.

He also reminded that the recommended duration of the sport is at least 30 minutes a day and is carried out at least three times a week.

"This means that if five days a week and more than 30 minutes for example an hour a day, it is more optimal. So, don't always take the minimum if possible," he said.

Signs of the body having to rest cannot be taken lightly to avoid unwanted things that are at risk of health. Moreover, recently, a courier died of exhaustion while delivering the package.

Although it is not the cause of someone's sudden death, Dony said excessive fatigue can trigger cardiac arrest if the person has a history of heart disease.

"For example, he already has heart disease, then he is too tired, it can trigger cardiac arrest," said Dony.
