The plateau period is because in the process of losing weight, the body should maintain normal basal metabolism and avoid complete energy consumption. When the energy consumption in the body reaches a certain level, the body will produce protective inhibition. If you use too radical methods (such as dieting) in the process of losing weight, or the stimulation to your body has not changed (such as only doing the same kind of exercise), your body has gradually adapted to the external stimulation, which will accelerate the arrival of the platform period.
Losing weight is normal. Everyone will have a plateau in the process of losing weight, but the length of time is different. Some people only have a few weeks, others have a few months. But what is certain is that as long as we persist in losing weight and break through the platform period, our weight will continue to decline. However, after entering the platform period, because the body fat is relatively small, the weight loss will be very small.
The platform period of losing weight is an experience that most dieters will encounter. Many people give up losing weight at this time and do not pay attention to maintaining the weight loss results, which leads to a rebound. So if you persist in the platform period, you are the winner.
The best way to overcome the platform period is to adjust the training plan, increase the intensity of exercise and control the calorie intake, such as increasing the types of exercise as much as possible, increasing local anaerobic exercise and improving the metabolism of the body.
Extended data:
The identification method of weight loss platform period is:
1. The weight loss plan is still being implemented, but the weight and latitude have been stagnant for one month or even more than two months.
I eat very little every day, but my weight doesn't move at all.
3. Have good exercise habits, but the weight has not changed.
There are two situations that do not belong to the platform period:
1, because of lax, did not adhere to the weight loss plan; At this time, as long as you insist on losing weight again, you can keep losing weight;
2. weight is temporarily stagnant. The fluctuation of weight is normal. If you stop losing weight for less than a week, you can't count as a platform period.
