Not every kind of exercise will have the effect of losing weight, so what are the methods of exercise that are not conducive to weight loss?
High-volume exercise
If the amount of exercise is too large, the oxygen, nutrients and metabolites required by the human body will increase accordingly. This depends on the heart to strengthen the contraction force and contraction frequency, and increase the blood output of the heart to complete the transportation task. When doing a lot of exercise, the blood output of the heart cannot meet the body’s need for oxygen, which will make the body in an anaerobic metabolic state of hypoxia. Anaerobic exercise does not use fat as the main energy, but mainly releases energy by decomposing glycogen stored in the body. In an oxygen-deficient environment, fat not only cannot be used, but also produces some incompletely oxidized acidic substances, reducing the body’s exercise tolerance. After a short period of high-intensity exercise, the blood sugar level will decrease, and the decrease in blood sugar is an important cause of hunger. At this time, people tend to have a great appetite, which is extremely unfavorable for weight loss.
Short-term exercise
During aerobic exercise, the glycogen stored in the human body is used first to release energy. After 30 minutes of exercise, the energy released from glycogen begins to be converted into energy released from fat; after about 1 hour of exercise, the energy required for exercise is mainly supplied by fat. For example, the common jumping aerobics for weight loss and body sculpting, the duration is only about 1 hour. That is to say, people stop exercising when fat just begins to break down, and the weight loss effect may not be very satisfactory.
Fast explosive movement
Human muscles are composed of many muscle fibers, which can be mainly divided into two categories: white muscle fibers and red muscle fibers. When exercising, such as rapid explosive strength exercises, it is mainly the white muscle fibers that get exercised. The cross-section of the white muscle fiber is thicker, so the muscle group is easy to develop and thicken. Using this method to lose weight will make it thicker and thicker. In a word, in order to achieve the purpose of whole body weight loss, you should do low-to-medium-intensity, long-term (more than 1 hour) endurance exercise type aerobic metabolic whole-body exercise with a heart rate of 120-160 beats per minute. For example, long-distance running, long-distance swimming, mountain climbing, etc.
