Quarantine has been declared around the world, in such a situation you need to stay at home. How not to gain extra pounds?
Stay at home
The whole world is trumpeting about the virus. To stop the pandemic, everyone must stay at home and not go outside unnecessarily. And at home there are a lot of different activities, but this is a separate topic. The most important fact that is most often forgotten is that you can lose weight with any lifestyle. This means that it is not necessary to work as a builder or miner, where physical strength is involved. It's never too late to take on yourself, and now there is time for that. No more excuses!
Food
It has long been no secret to have a slim and fit figure, you need to follow a diet. But it’s impossible to live your entire life on a diet without a single breakdown. And due to disruptions, the dropped kilograms come back. Which exit? The diet should be balanced, and these are fruits, vegetables, meat, vegetable protein and slow carbohydrates. But also "sweet" has not been canceled. Ideally, all possible cookies, muffins and cakes are best cooked by yourself, which will help you accurately control the amount of sugar eaten.
When there is nothing to do at home, you always want to eat. The solution is to find a fun activity that will take you all day. There is necessarily at a certain time, which will create a regime, the body will work like a clock.
Sleep
No matter how strange it may sound, but in quarantine there was an opportunity to get a good sleep. During sleep, 1 kcal is spent per 1 kg of weight per 1 hour of sleep. It turns out a person weighing 60 kg, spends about 480 kcal in 8 hours. And then there is the daytime sleep.
Workouts
One of the important points is exercise. This includes spring cleaning, cooking, and a full workout. To play sports at home, you only need sneakers and comfortable clothing. On the Internet, you can find a huge number of home video workouts for any level of training. You can do strength or cardio workouts, or you can do yoga or Pilates. And you can do yoga in the morning, and after a deep nap, perform a circular high-interval workout.
Complex
The body works in a complex. In order for the body to begin to lose weight, there must be a calorie deficit. That is, you need to spend more than you consume, taking into account the cost of sleeping, digesting food, etc. You must consume at least 1000 kcal per day. You can lie on the couch for a whole day and not eat anything, but then the body will experience stress and feed on the reserves in the muscles or even begin to accumulate fat for a "rainy day". Thus, you can lose weight, but this will negatively affect the body and the digestive system in particular (it is possible to earn gastritis or stomach ulcers).
Outcome
To lose extra pounds in quarantine, you need to act in a complex. Get good sleep, eat healthy foods in small amounts, and do not overeat. Do things that have been postponed for a long time and be as active as possible.
Motivation is the key to success!
