Is the elliptical machine better or the treadmill?
Elliptical machines have become popular rapidly in recent years. This little fitness preparation takes up no space at home, and it is very popular if you want to move. As for the elliptical machine or the treadmill, let's take a look!
Treadmill is the most widely used household fitness equipment at present. If you want to lose weight, the treadmill will help you more, but the treadmill still has certain requirements for your knees. It is suggested that the shock absorption of treadmill should be considered when choosing treadmill.
Elliptical machine can simulate running, mountain climbing and cycling. Treadmill and spinning seem to have been done, but (yes, there is a turning point here), the strength of elliptical machine is relatively small (here is the comparative strength per unit time). If you are eager to lose weight, you'd better give priority to the treadmill.
However, the elliptical machine has a great advantage, that is, it does little harm to the user's knees. In short, it can help you exercise gracefully at home. If you don't need too much exercise intensity and want to exercise all over your body, then the elliptical machine is really suitable for you.
How to use the elliptical machine
1. Hold the handrail above the elliptical machine gently with both hands, and then step forward in turn with the rhythm of your feet. After finding the rhythm of the action, slowly increase the thrust of the hand and the pedaling force of the foot.
2, pay attention to the body posture when using, hold your head high, don't bow your head to practice, look straight ahead, put your whole body's attention on your legs.
3. It is best to practice in groups. There are two ways. One is to group by time, in groups of 5-6 minutes, or in groups of times. This can be decided according to my physical endurance. My personal habit is 100 steps. Rest 1 minute and then rest 100 times. When you exercise with an elliptical machine, the frequency and speed will gradually increase, and you must speed up within the range that you can adapt.
4, pay attention to breathing, all sports breathing is very important, breathing should be rhythmic, do not suddenly gasp, this is not good for the body.
Experience in using elliptical machine
It's spring, so it's really meaningless to lose weight. Decathlon elliptical machine is really the best choice for lazy people to lose weight at home. Fitness and weight loss programs have various resistance settings, which are very intelligent. Beautiful control panel, and you can also exercise while entertaining with your mobile phone iPad. Half an hour a day can achieve the goal of losing weight and fitness. Because of the weather, environment, home space and other reasons, I can't run every day. This is very convenient. It doesn't take up too much space on the balcony, and it can also achieve the purpose of aerobic fitness. Moreover, it can be used at any time after meals, and it will not cause gastroptosis like running, and there is no excuse not to exercise. I bought it for more than a week, and I pedal for almost half an hour every day. I am sweating all over and my mental state is much better than before! Girls, let's go!
Follow the wind elliptical machine and want to buy it for a long time. I want to buy a simple little flywheel to start. The price is cheap and the floor space is small. As a result, I personally experienced the front flywheel in Wuhan Creative City not long ago. It's out of control. It's so comfortable. It feels great. I can't do it. I need a front flywheel, so I have to buy it! As for the sauce, Decathlon was completely ruled out by me, and Decathlon's evaluation seems to be average. Ai Kang is very attractive. Although it was said that it could not be installed, the customer service said that his equipment was safe as a whole, only a few screws were tightened, and then the tiles fell off. I just placed an order today. Tile is a loser, tile hurts, buy early and cool early. In addition, I hope Wa can become a real skinny person.
In fact, many people don't know that elliptical machines can practice ass. I'm a person who never steps on an elliptical machine, and I don't do much aerobic exercise, because I'm afraid I'm getting thinner and thinner and my body fat is very low. I mainly focus on strength training, in order to gain muscle. Because thin bodies tend to look flat, I feel much better after a year of fitness. Elliptical machine is generally not used to practice ass, especially novice Xiaobai, who can't get the power point of that ass and feel it at all. So it is best to have a certain foundation. People who often practice squats will better adjust to the position where they can feel the power point best. This is my personal suggestion. Otherwise, if you practice your legs, you think you can practice your hips, and you're finished. In fact, it is quite simple, that is, adjusting a certain resistance. The greater the resistance, the greater the feeling. Adjust according to your own strength, and then press the upper body forward slightly, but you must not hunch over and tighten the core, which feels like squatting. Don't press your knees on your toes. Use your hips. When you step down, you can feel the gluteus maximus swelling and sore, and you will find that this is not enough. Add resistance and you will find more and more. ! ! Then you are using it in the right place! You'd better step on it for ten to fifteen minutes. Remember to stretch your hips after you step on it!
