Here are some interesting facts about fitness and other physical activity and how it affects weight loss. Did you know that …
1. Exercise will not get rid of local fat
Any problem area can be put in order with the help of exercises, but it is impossible to "burn" fat in any particular place, for example, only on the hips or waist, because it will decrease evenly throughout the body. Although sometimes it seems that the top is losing weight faster than the bottom.
2. Exercise will not help you lose weight
Strength training, unlike aerobic training (running, walking, cardio training), is not particularly effective for weight loss, but it helps to achieve a beautiful silhouette. And in order to lose weight, you need to eat a balanced diet and lead an active lifestyle. Exercise is certainly important, but the body burns most of the calories through everyday activities.
3. Fasting morning jogging is best for fat burning
If you start your morning with a run instead of breakfast, you can burn as much fat as possible. This is because the body, having not received glucose from food, will be forced to draw energy from its fat reserves. Eat a spoonful of honey or a slice of marshmallow the night before, and drink a glass of water before jogging. After the walk, be sure to have breakfast - your morning meal should contain proteins and slow carbohydrates.
4. Weight stops falling when the body gets used to the load
Unfortunately, this happens quite often: you regularly go to fitness, but the weight suddenly stood in place and does not want to move from one point, and the desired result is still far away. This happens when the body gets used to a certain type of load. To resume the process of losing weight, you can change the type of physical activity or slightly increase the load. But tightening the diet in this case is not the best way out.
5. You can eat pasta an hour and a half before training
Or other foods containing slow carbohydrates (brown rice, whole grain cereals, or bread) - about 60-70 g dry product. Then your body will have enough energy to train intensively, and then not feel a strong feeling of hunger. Otherwise, it will be quite difficult to curb your appetite after the end of the class.
6. You don't have to go to the gym every day to lose weight
The optimal number of visits to the gym is 3-4 times a week. You should not go there every day, as the body needs a break - the muscles must recover.
