? However, God never shuts one door but he opens another.
If we grasp factors other than congenital factors, being as thin as lightning is still not a dream.
In addition to exercise, the human body itself consumes energy all the time, which is called basal metabolism.
Basal metabolism is the lowest energy consumed by the human body every day in order to survive. Basal metabolic rate is an index of basal metabolism.
Simply put, basal metabolism is the energy consumed when lying down.
The basal metabolic rate varies from person to person, and many factors such as age, gender and race will affect basal metabolism. This time, we will introduce an important factor that affects basal metabolism-muscle.
Give the conclusion first:
The more muscles, the greater the basal metabolism.
Because under the same conditions, muscle of the same quality consumes more energy than fat, and maintaining muscle itself also needs a lot of nutrition and energy.
There is also a saying that muscles are acquired through hard exercise. Having muscles also means a lot of exercise, which provides consumption for the body, so people with developed muscles have a great basic metabolism.
In any case, the higher a person's muscle ratio generally means that his basal metabolism is greater.
So how to effectively train muscle gain?
First of all, the human body itself has several muscle groups, which are divided into large muscle groups and small muscle groups. Different stimulation methods will have exercise effects on different muscle groups. For example, butterfly swimming machine can effectively stimulate chest muscles, rowing machine can effectively exercise back muscles and so on.
To choose a targeted exercise method to increase your muscles, you can only exercise two or three muscles at a time. This can strengthen the training of muscle groups, with sufficient intensity and obvious effect.
Of course, novices should pay attention to the correct posture when using equipment to exercise, otherwise they will not only get the expected effect, but also cause harm to their bodies. Especially when training heavy equipment, it is best to have others to assist in the training.
In addition to practice, there is a very important point to gain muscle, that is, diet.
As mentioned above, muscle maintenance needs a lot of energy and nutrition besides exercise, and both energy and nutrition are taken in through diet.
Pay attention to the intake of protein in the diet when practicing muscles, because protein is an important substance to maintain muscles. Common foods rich in protein include milk, egg protein, fish, chicken, pork and insects. There seems to be something strange mixed in ...
Just practicing without eating is like cooking without eating. There is not enough nutrition in the body to support muscles, so it is very difficult to improve muscles. Only by practicing well and eating well can we get twice the result with half the effort, which is much more efficient than simply practicing hard.
In addition to diet, there is one thing to mention: sleep. High-intensity physical exercise itself consumes a lot of physical strength and energy, and good sleep provides opportunities for the body to rest and recover. If you fight fatigue for a long time and your body can't persist, the reason for gaining muscle will definitely not be long-term.
? Bottom line: Eat well, sleep well, strengthen strength training-increase muscle proportion-improve basal metabolism-you can also lose weight while lying down.
