Lack of stamina
|
Stamina describes a person's ability to
sustain physical and mental activity. People
with low mental stamina may find it
difficult to focus on tasks for long periods
and become distracted easily. People with
low physical stamina may tire when walking
up a flight of stairs, for example. Having
low stamina often causes a person to feel
tired after little exertion, and they may
experience an overall lack of energy or
focus. By increasing their stamina, a person
can feel more energetic and complete daily
tasks more easily. |

There are ways to increase
stamina naturally, and the following are
some of the best ways to do so over
time. |

People often practice yoga or meditation to help them relax or refocus. These activities, when done consistently, can help reduce stress and improve overall stamina. For example, results of a small study involving 27 medical students indicated that participating in some form of meditation or yoga could decrease stress levels and improve general well-being. Anyone looking to increase their mental stamina may benefit from practicing yoga or meditation regularly. Exercise can help a person improve their physical and mental stamina. People who exercise often feel more energized during both mental and physical tasks. One study showed that following a workout program led to lower levels of work-related fatigue. The results also indicated that the program helped decrease stress levels and improve the participants' sense of well-being. Anyone looking to reduce mental and physical fatigue should try to exercise regularly. This could include taking a walk or getting more intense exercise before or after work. Ashwagandha is a natural herb available as a supplement. Taking ashwagandha may have the following effects:
In a small study, 25 athletes took 300 mg of ashwagandha twice a day for 12 weeks. They showed improved cardiovascular endurance, compared with an otherwise matched group who had taken a placebo. There is evidence that music can alter a person's mood. It may also help improve cardiovascular efficiency. In a small study, participants who listened to their preferred music during exercise had a lower heart rate than those that did not. Confirming these findings will require more research. However, the implication is that if a person listens to music that they enjoy while exercising, their stamina may improve. Stamina helps a person stay focused and feel energized to do mental and physical tasks throughout the day. Increasing stamina usually gives people more energy and focus and helps them to feel better about themselves. People often benefit from a combination of stamina-boosting activities or supplements. However, anyone with a health concern should speak to their Doctor or healthcare provider before taking a supplement or beginning a new exercise program. |
