In this experiment, the subjects ran for the first time 1 hour without stopping 1 second (how many people are there? ), the second time is to run three 20-minute intervals, each interval is 10 minute, and the intensity is 55%VO2max.
Research shows that although running 1 hour does increase the proportion of fat consumption, contrary to common sense, resting 10 minutes can increase the proportion of fat consumption even higher!
As can be seen from the figure, the fat consumption of intermittent running is much higher than that of continuous running! Moreover, it is getting higher and higher! Are you scared?
Although the fat consumption of intermittent running is 5mg/min/kg lower than that of continuous running within 30 minutes of rest, it is obvious that the fat consumption is getting higher and higher during the interval running. In addition, there is no data of fat consumption at rest after intermittent running, but other experiments have proved that fat consumption during intermittent exercise is much higher than that during continuous exercise.
Finally, calculate the total amount of fat consumed during exercise. Intermittent running will be about 30mg/min/kg higher than continuous running! Obviously, intermittent running not only does not affect the fat consumption of exercise, but also consumes more fat than continuous running without rest!
At present, it is considered that these consumptions are closely related to catecholamine, insulin, cortisol and other related neuroendocrine systems, and its internal regulation mechanism needs further study.
