Do you think obese people should lose fat or gain muscle first? Why?
If you don't have any sports foundation, you have no sports habits in your daily life. Then you say you are fat, which basically confirms that you are fat. For fat people, the top priority must be to reduce fat. But is the method of reducing fat so absolute? Do aerobic exercise to reduce fat, and do strength training to gain muscle?

The answer is no. If you burn more calories a day than you take in, you will lose weight. Whether you do more strength training or aerobic training today.

So talking about training methods without controlling diet is pure hooliganism. I hope that in the process of losing weight, you should always understand the truth of practicing three points and eating seven points.

Ok, now suppose you have a good diet control, that is, you are struggling with the ratio of strength training to aerobic training.

I can tell you that strength training is the main thing in the early stage, supplemented by aerobic training. When the body fat drops to about 20%, if you want to continue to lose weight, you can expect obvious fat-reducing effect, which can be based on aerobic training and supplemented by strength training.

There are three reasons:

First, the basic aerobic training methods that most people can do are running, cycling and aerobic training. The similarity of these sports will have a strong impact on human joints, and the sports content needs to be combined with running and jumping. Every kilogram of people's weight increases, the pressure on joints will increase by about 3~5 times, which is why many obese people have joint problems more or less. So you are already a big fat man, and your joints are overloaded with daily life every day. When you exercise, you also put more pressure on your joints. As a result, you may lose weight and your joints will be destroyed by you.

Secondly, as mentioned in many answers, strength training can increase people's muscle content. Once a person's muscle content increases, his physical fitness will become stronger accordingly, and his exercise will become more and more handy, reducing his frustration. The most important thing is to improve metabolism. After strength training, there is data to prove that it can continuously improve metabolism for more than 72 hours. This means that when you come home from training, whether you are lying on the sofa watching TV or playing computer games, your body is burning calories.

Third, do a lot of aerobic training, although lean meat is fast. But you also have to pay the price of muscle loss. Research shows that aerobic training can really decompose human fat, but it can also decompose human muscles. You should have seen many comparison charts. People with the same weight have different muscle content and different body shapes. If you don't have muscles to support your body, even if you lose weight, your body will still shrivel. People will only see you say, "Oh, you've lost weight" instead of saying, "Wow, your figure has improved!"
