One of the misunderstandings:
As long as you exercise more, you can lose weight. Although exercise can consume calories in the human body, the effect of losing weight by exercise alone is not obvious. Research shows that even if you play tennis for a few hours every day, you can only drink one or two cans of drinks or eat a few cakes, and the hard-won weight loss results will go up in smoke. Therefore, in order to achieve a lasting weight loss effect, in addition to engaging in exercise, we should also make reasonable adjustments to the diet.
Myth 2:
Exercise on an empty stomach is harmful to health. People are always worried that fasting exercise will cause hypoglycemia due to a large consumption of glycogen stored in the body, such as dizziness, fatigue and palpitation, which is not good for health. It is believed that moderate exercise, such as quantitative walking, dancing, jogging and cycling, 65438+ 0 ~ 2 hours before meals (that is, fasting) is helpful to lose weight. This is because no new fatty acids enter the body's fat cells at this time, and it is easier to consume excess brown fat, especially productivity, and the weight loss effect is better than after-meal exercise.
In addition, due to proper exercise and low heat consumption, adequate storage in the body will not affect health.
Myth 3:
You can lose weight by jogging for 30 minutes at a time. Although jogging can achieve the purpose of aerobic exercise, it has little effect on losing weight. Practice has proved that only when the exercise lasts for more than 40 minutes can the body's fat be mobilized to supply energy with glycogen. With the extension of exercise time, the energy supplied by fat can reach 85.5% of the total consumption. It can be seen that there is no obvious fat consumption in exercise shorter than 40 minutes, regardless of the intensity.
Myth 4:
The greater the exercise intensity, the more intense the exercise, and the better the weight loss effect. In fact, only continuous low-intensity aerobic exercise can make people consume excess fat. This is because during low-intensity exercise, muscles mainly use oxidized fatty acids to obtain energy, so that fat is consumed quickly. With the increase of exercise intensity, the proportion of fat consumption decreases accordingly. When approaching high-intensity exercise, the proportion of fat energy supply only accounts for 15.5%. Therefore, light, moderate, long-term low-intensity exercise or long-term exercise with heart rate 100 ~ 124 beats/min is most beneficial to lose weight.
