When it comes to losing weight, many people will say that gaining weight is due to lack of exercise, and running for a month will definitely lose several pounds. Indeed, we can often see many inspirational weight loss stories. From obesity and decadence to sudden awakening, they formed the habit of running frequently, persisted for a certain period of time, and completed the transformation of their physical and mental outlook. So we can't help sighing after watching it at the back of the screen, because we are too lazy and lack exercise.

Therefore, some people begin to lose weight from a lot of aerobic exercise, such as running and jogging. On the first and second day of running, they will weigh themselves on weighing scale very actively and frequently, and then they will be pleasantly surprised to find that their weight has really dropped. When they work hard and see the results, they will become very excited and more conducive to their persistence in the future. At this time, many people will fall into a state of confusion and want to know what went wrong. In fact, this is mainly because the effect of doing a lot of aerobic exercise is very limited. Admittedly, any exercise can help us burn calories and lose weight, but we may overestimate the capacity consumed by exercise.

In addition, when we do a lot of aerobic exercise, the body will consume fat and lead to a certain degree of muscle loss. Because the body needs heat balance, when you keep consuming body heat, the body's operating mechanism doesn't need so many muscles to consume more heat, so you can only reduce muscles, and your basic metabolism will gradually decrease. After the basal metabolism is reduced, if you still exercise for the same time and intensity as before and can barely reach the balance point of your body, you will naturally not lose weight again.

The really efficient way is to control diet, which accounts for 80% of weight loss. Diet accounts for a large proportion in weight loss, because as long as the source of calorie intake can be controlled, the range of calorie control is very wide. Whether you want to reduce 700 calories or 1000 calories, you can easily do it by reducing the dietary intake of three meals a day. After all, the consumption brought by exercise is limited, so to lose weight successfully, controlling diet is far more important and direct than exercise. As we mentioned above.

Diet control is very effective to lose weight, but it does not mean that you can choose to diet to greatly reduce calorie intake. Although this is very effective in the short term, it is not easy to help you keep in good shape in the long run. Therefore, taking time to cultivate a good, healthy and nutritious eating habit is far more important than the goal of losing weight faster.
