Let's compare the energy supply forms of basketball and jogging. Jogging is pure aerobic exercise, and the energy during exercise comes from the aerobic metabolism of sugar and fat. Basketball is not a pure aerobic exercise, which is somewhat similar to 800-run. It is an aerobic and anaerobic energy supply project. With the increase of competition intensity, the proportion of anaerobic function will also increase, and the increase of anaerobic energy supply will seriously affect the fat reduction effect.
Although you may consume more energy playing basketball for two hours than running for half an hour, the energy from fat will definitely be more than running for half an hour. So I suggest you lose weight by jogging.
I don't know where you are tired from running. If you can't breathe, your cardiopulmonary function is not good enough. You can slow down, change jogging to brisk walking, or walk alternately, running for 1.30 minutes, walking for another minute, and then running for 1 minute. If your leg hurts badly, it is recommended that you do squats every day, 8 groups a day, and each group is 2 minutes apart for one week.
Reducing fat is always a long and arduous process, and it is important to stick to it.
