There is a saying that man struggles upwards and water flows downwards, which is everyone's right to choose freely. This phenomenon is very common in the current workplace, but it is also common in the fitness circle. Although people know more about fitness, many people still choose fitness methods that suit them, such as strength training, yoga and swimming.

Of course, it's not that running is worse than building muscles, but it's true that there are fewer runners. Nowadays, most people who run on the street every day are dieters or the elderly, so why do people who like to run slowly start fitness and muscle training? There are three reasons.

First, the benefits of muscle training

Of course, this article is not to belittle running training, but to analyze it from some objective angles. Persisting in running training for a long time will really make you thinner and improve your physical fitness to a great extent, but compared with bodybuilding training, bodybuilding training can make you thinner and shape your sexy muscles, which running can't bring. The same is training, running can't increase your muscles, and even affect their growth to some extent.

Second, running is not everything.

There are many external factors to consider when running. If long-term runners do not pay attention to these external factors, it is very easy to cause sports injuries. Good track, good running shoes and even overweight people are actually not suitable for running. In contrast, the threshold of muscle building training is relatively low. No matter who you are, what kind of physical quality and fitness experience, you can carry out basic muscle building training.

Third, the gap between the two.

In fact, many people still think running is better. These people think that running is more suitable for anytime and anywhere. However, with the aggravation of urban air pollution, indoor gymnasiums are full of treadmills, and running can't actually occupy a great advantage in aerobic training, but it is also fitness. Choosing more suitable muscle building training can actually help you achieve your fitness goals better.

But when it comes to this, I still want to say that no matter what fitness training, as long as you like it and can stick to it, that's good. After all, it is the most important thing to stick to it and make yourself interested.
