Can rowing be thin belly?

First of all, it needs to be clear that any aerobic fat-reducing exercise loses the whole body fat, not the fat in a certain part. The reason why the belly is easy to get fat is because of the surrounding internal organs, because of irregular diet, overeating and lack of exercise, because it is impossible to consume excess calories in time and hoard around the internal organs, leading to the emergence of a small belly.

So rowing machines, like all aerobic exercises, can thin belly, thighs, hips and arms.

However, rowing machines are different from other aerobic exercises. In addition to aerobic exercise, rowing machine is a kind of muscle strength endurance training equipment, which can exercise 84% of the whole body muscle groups. It has incomparable benefits for our muscle strength exercise, such as running and cycling. Aerobic exercise can improve muscle strength, and muscle is an important factor to improve our daily basal metabolism. Muscle is improved, basal metabolism is also improved accordingly, and the speed of burning fat is also accelerated.

How can we burn fat more efficiently?

The most important thing for efficient fat burning is not how long you exercise, nor how much you sweat. The most important thing is the heart rate interval. Only when the best heart rate interval is reached can the fat burning efficiency reach the highest.

Generally speaking, it is recommended to reach 60%-70% of an individual's maximum heart rate, and the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. To reach this heart rate range, it is best to wear a heart rate watch or a heart rate chest strap, monitor the heart rate changes in real time, and find the most suitable exercise intensity. On this basis, the exercise time is extended to 30 minutes to 1 hour. Your fat burning efficiency is the most efficient at this time.

Generally speaking, heavier people will encounter novice honeymoon period in the early stage of fat loss, and the training effect is the best at this time. When you lose weight gradually, there will be a platform period and you can't lose any more. At this time, it is necessary to appropriately increase some strength training, change the original training plan, continuously improve the intensity of exercise, and use strength training to reduce fat in an all-round way. This will not only consume fat, but also make the whole body muscle lines more stylish.
