For women of any age, figure and beauty are very important things. I even spent a lot of time and money on myself for a good figure. But for women in their fifties, the effect of losing weight is often not understood. So what is the reason for this?
One: uncontrolled diet.
After the age of 50, it is the stage to meet menopause. Under the influence of estrogen, fat metabolism is inhibited, which will increase the risk of obesity. Here, it is suggested that women reduce their food intake by 300~500 calories a day, and reduce the content of carbohydrates through long-term accumulation to achieve the goal of controlling their ideal weight. In order to enhance satiety, you can also choose foods with high dietary fiber, such as coarse grains, coarse grains and miscellaneous beans. The rest of the diet can be eaten according to the intake of China residents' dietary pagodas, such as fresh vegetables, fruits and beans.
Two: low basal metabolism
Low basal metabolism is also the biggest obstacle for many 50-year-old women to lose weight. The main reason for the low basal metabolic rate is the decrease of body muscle content. Many women in daily life, due to the lack of physical muscle stimulation, muscle content will gradually decrease. Therefore, it is suggested that women increase some strength training, which can better stimulate body muscles and improve the body's basic metabolic ability.
Three: Eat more protein.
Want to increase muscle mass, in addition to strength training, but also can not do without the help of protein, which can promote muscle growth and repair. Because when people do strength training, muscle fibers will be slightly damaged, and protein can repair this damage and make muscles stronger than before.
Four: Don't stay up late.
Many women still keep the habit of staying up late, but staying up late will increase the excessive secretion of cortisol and promote the synthesis of body fat. Especially for 50-year-old women, their hormone levels are low. If they stay up late, the situation will only get worse. Therefore, it is recommended that women must not stay up late and keep enough sleep for 8 hours. Not only the slimming effect is obvious, but also the skin will be better.
I suggest that you can find scientific sports in some sports apps and conduct systematic training. Aerobic exercise combined with proper strength training can keep people young. I suggest everyone try, stick to it and form long-term good habits.
If you want to lose weight, you must make a systematic plan, and both diet and exercise should be taken into account, especially diet, which has many pits. With the development of science, many eating habits have been proved unhealthy before, but at present, most people are still in the dark and tirelessly follow them, leading to obesity and three highs, which bring health risks. Illness comes from the mouth, and the food you eat determines your health. Changing your diet can make you healthy and slim.
