Metabolism is the best fat burner in the body. It can be your best "slimming alliance", but it may also be the most hateful enemy, depending on your practice.
When most people lose weight, they will lose a certain amount of non-fat substances (mainly muscle and water) besides fat. The slimming expert warned: "If people just eat less to lose weight, most of what they lose is muscle and water, and when they gain weight, it is mainly fat. This cycle several times, people will only get fatter and fatter. "
To make matters worse, a sudden sharp decrease in calorie intake will also slow down metabolism in the body. There is a simple reason. If your body feels that the food supply is seriously insufficient, it will enter a state of hunger emergency, and through the adjustment of various gland activities, it will slow down metabolism to reserve energy.
If you want to lose weight, you must first start the metabolic system in your body, which requires you to ensure a normal and reasonable diet and use instead of losing precious muscles. Aerobic exercise is the best way to accelerate metabolism. These sports include brisk walking, jogging, cycling, swimming and ball games. At least 4 days a week (preferably half an hour a day), insisting on such exercise can effectively accelerate metabolism in the body. If it is difficult to exercise for half an hour at a time, you can also do 10 minutes at a time, and accumulate half an hour every day.
2. Eat scientifically and regularly.
Living in an era full of all kinds of delicious food, how can we keep the waist circumference and hip circumference unchanged or smaller? The answer is-we should enjoy food rather than avoid it.
We tend to focus too much on eliminating body fat and ignore the fun of eating. This can easily lead to overeating or overeating at the first opportunity or relaxation. In this regard, the expert's comment is not unreasonable: "Many people force themselves to eat only half-baked vegetables and some skim foods that taste like wax every day. They will soon have a strong desire to eat, always looking forward to a change or a good meal. This desire is a taboo to lose weight. "
Don't think that you can lose weight by making food unpalatable. In fact, the situation is just the opposite. Foods with good color, smell and taste can fully mobilize your vision, smell and taste, and shift your attention from simple eating to enjoying eating. In this way, you will easily feel "saturated" and actually eat less in your stomach.
Don't think that you can lose weight without eating three meals a day. Skipping this meal will only make you eat more next time. The correct eating habit conducive to weight loss is to eat three meals without leaving, and eat 8 points full for each meal; You can also eat some fruits or snacks between meals, and eating before you are hungry can also help you lose weight; Drinking a small bowl of soup before each meal helps to control your overeating; Don't let yourself eat at any time. In fact, if you eat well every meal every day, you won't have the habit of eating something delicious occasionally.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that you should insist on drinking a lot of water every day. This is not only good for metabolism, but also can prevent you from overeating. Because experiments have proved that people will feel hungry in the absence of water (even if they don't feel it), and this "hunger" that they mistakenly think they need to eat can easily make you overeat.
3. Adjust the bad habits that are not conducive to slimming.
Please note that we are only talking about adjustment, not change. Everyone has a lifestyle that they think is fun, and deliberate changes often make things worse. However, in order to achieve the ideal slimming effect, it is still necessary to adjust their habits that are not conducive to "fat removal".
For many people, especially women, diet and mood are closely linked. It is common to get carried away and overeat when you are particularly happy or depressed. People's emotions always fluctuate between good and bad, so it's no wonder that their weight fluctuates. The next time you have a special desire for food because of your mood, please try to change the way of venting: calling a friend, doing moderate-intensity exercise, and taking a walk outdoors are all good choices. Why do you have to adjust your mood by eating? Losing weight can only make your good mood worse or your bad mood worse.
Accelerate fat decomposition
The fastest and most direct way to lose weight is to accelerate fat decomposition. In order to burn fat to the maximum extent, here are four tricks that are difficult to try:
(1) Fully exercise muscles
The higher the muscle content in your body, the more calories you burn per minute. But as we get older, our muscles will get weaker and weaker. Therefore, it is necessary for you to do some muscle strengthening exercises, including weight lifting, push-ups and other strength exercises. In addition to the aerobic exercise mentioned above, adding such strength exercises two or three times a week will make your slimming effect more prominent.
(2) constantly changing the way of consuming calories
A single exercise method can easily get you bored. Once this kind of emotion is generated, it is difficult to persist in even the best exercise. Therefore, you can avoid boredom by constantly updating your exercise methods. You can also find a regular partner to exercise with you or ask your family to urge you to do it. If you find it boring to lift heavy objects repeatedly, you can also bring a walkman.
(3) Exercise should reach a certain intensity.
Fat burning not only occurs during exercise, but also lasts for a period of time after it stops. The greater the intensity of exercise, the longer the fat burning time after stopping. Therefore, once you exercise, you'd better not be afraid of being tired. Reaching a certain intensity can make you burn more fat in the same time.
(4) Imagine that you are already slim.
Consciousness will also have a great influence on losing weight. Putting your heart and soul into it will make your fat disappear faster. Believe it or not, the subconscious influence does exist, which will affect the secretion of many glands in the body. This influence has become a hot spot in foreign research.
5. Everything depends on persistence.
Just as the accumulation of fat is not the result of a day or two, the removal of fat will never happen overnight. In fact, it is necessary for you to exercise more, eat less and live a regular life, whether from the perspective of shaping a perfect body or having a healthy body.
Don't give up if you don't keep exercising for a day or two, or if you don't control your bad eating habits once or twice. It is enough to restore good habits in the next few days; Don't give up just because you haven't seen immediate results for two days and two weeks. Stick to it for a few days or several times, and there may be unexpected surprises.
