Only professional bodybuilders will eat less salt or cut off salt for a while before going to the stage to get clearer muscle lines. Because salt plays a major role in cell osmotic pressure and water balance. Too much salt in the body will cause water storage in the muscle, which will directly affect the clarity of observing the muscle fibers on the skin surface. Therefore, bodybuilders should eat less salt before the competition so as not to affect the dehydration effect of bodybuilders. If fitness is not for stage competition, it is not necessary. Even professional bodybuilders only cut off the salt for a period of time before going on stage, and will make up the salt immediately after stepping down!

Eating a so-called "fitness meal" without oil and salt, or eating three meals a day with less oil and salt, and losing weight with a lot of aerobic exercise and strength training, although the calorie and nutrition intake are reasonable and sufficient, will still lead to lack of energy, no love, and fatigue during training and exercise is different. This is probably because the sodium intake is too small. In the long run, cooking with less salt is not a lasting way, and it is not directly related to the quality of weight loss, and even gives up exercise because of the great fatigue caused by insufficient sodium intake. Sodium is also one of the electrolytes to maintain the normal operation of human body. The total content of salt in adults is about 1 g/kg body weight, of which 50% salt plays a decisive role in cell osmotic pressure, water balance and acid-base balance. The salt content of most diet meals is far from enough for the normal operation of the human body in a day, especially on the basis of a certain amount of exercise. Due to the normal training of fitness, the body will sweat and lose a lot of salt, especially the supplement of salt!

The World Health Organization suggests that the average person's daily salt intake is about 6-8 grams, while the dietary guidelines for China residents advocate that the daily salt intake per person should be less than 6 grams. Of course, this is not a strict standard. For example, patients with mild hypertension should have less exercise and more exercise.

I hope I can help you and adopt it.
