Is cycling useful for leg weight loss?
Losing weight means doing some healthy exercises, such as jogging and swimming. It takes more than half an hour to burn fat every time to have an effect. But strenuous exercise will not only cause careless muscle strain, but also have no significant weight loss effect. It is best to exercise five or six times a week for 30~40 minutes each time, and ride 10 minutes with all your strength, 2-4 times a day for one month, and you will see the effect. Riding a bike can not only lose weight, but also make your figure symmetrical. Because cycling is an exercise that needs a lot of oxygen, it can also strengthen the heart function. At the same time, it can also prevent hypertension, sometimes more effective than drugs. Cycling compresses blood vessels, accelerates blood circulation, and the brain absorbs more oxygen. Coupled with inhaling a lot of fresh air, it will make the brain more awake. Sitting in the car, you will feel very free and carefree. It is no longer just a means of transportation, but also a way to please the soul. Sports experts pointed out that due to the special requirements of cycling, the arms and trunk mostly work statically, and the legs mostly work dynamically. When blood is redistributed, there is more blood supply in the lower limbs, and the change of heart rate varies according to pedaling speed and terrain fluctuation. The body is in urgent need of nutrition supplement and waste discharge, so the heartbeat is often 2-3 times higher than usual. Repeated practice like this can make the myocardium developed, the heart enlarged, the myocardial contraction strong and the elasticity of the blood vessel wall enhanced. Therefore, the lung ventilation is large, the vital capacity is increased, and the respiratory function of the lung is improved. What is the best posture to lose weight by cycling? Not long ago, some media suggested that leaning forward 20 ~ 30 degrees is the best posture for cycling, which can prevent and reduce the fatigue of neck and lower limbs. So many people ask, if your bike can't meet this requirement, is it bad for your health? In fact, it is too absolute to say that cyclists lean forward 20 ~ 30 degrees: the height of each bicycle seat and handlebar is different, and the cyclist's figure is different, so the inclination angle will naturally be different. How can I ask my upper body to lean forward 20 ~ 30 degrees? The posture only needs to be roughly correct: the upper body leans forward slightly, the arms are slightly straight, the shoulders are naturally relaxed, and the handlebars are evenly held by both hands; Don't twist your thighs outward; Step on the pedal, relax, lift the anus upward and breathe slowly; When stepping on the right (left) foot, straighten your ankle as much as possible. At the same time, lift your left (right) foot, tilt your toes up, and then push your heels down. Many people will unconsciously turn their feet outward or inward when riding a bicycle. This is a wrong action, which will wear their knees and be laborious. The saying that cycling will affect men's erectile function makes some people feel scared when cycling for fitness. In fact, the car seat is the "culprit" of the disease. If the front end of the car seat is tilted too high, it is likely to lead to prostatitis. But the correct riding posture and moderate seat height are not only good for perineum, but also helpful for penis erection. Practitioners should adjust the height of the seat and handlebar before riding. Don't put all your strength on the handlebars, and you can't wear light without force. The height of the handlebar should be determined according to the upper body size and arm length. Before and after adjusting the seat, fix the seat on the horizontal line first, and then adjust the seat before and after. Legs are long, and the seat should be moved back; Instead, the seat moves forward slightly. After sitting firmly in the car seat, step on the pedal with your heel. When the pedal reaches the lowest point, the leg should be just straight to avoid overstretching the foot or bending the knee joint. Try it a few more times and feel that the strength is right. In order to prevent finger injury, the thumb should be pressed upward from below when holding the handlebar, and the most suitable strength is about seven or eight minutes.
