During weight loss, you focus on reducing fat or reducing weight?
A large part of the weight loss newbies will focus on their own weight. For ordinary people, weight does determine the degree of obesity. When your weight base is large, it means that fat content is excessive.
However, for fitness enthusiasts, who regularly lift weights, then the weight standard range is not applicable. Because the weight base is determined by multiple factors, including water, fat, muscle, bone, organs, and other tissues.And the fundamental reason for obesity is excessive fat in the body, not excessive muscle or water.
We often drink more water,which will inevitably increase the weight base, but this doesn't mean you've gotten fat. When you go to the toilet, the body's water will be excreted, and the weight will also decrease. This doesn't mean you've become thinner.
And the increase in muscle mass,will strengthen the body's metabolism, making the body's curves more beautiful, that is, to build a muscular physique, with arms, abs, wide hips, and a V-shaped figure.
The increase in muscle mass will inevitably lead to an increase in body weight. Many fitness and bodybuilding athletes' weight exceeds the standard, but their bodies won't be bloated, and they don't belong to the category of obesity.
And excessive fat,will make the body consume more oxygen, increase the burden on the body, and fat will secrete some harmful substances, harming the body's health, and causing obesity diseases such as cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension, accelerating the aging of the body, and affecting lifespan.
For those who are losing weight, you need to know that fat and muscle cannot be converted into each other!
Muscle is a calorie-consuming tissue, with a high density and small volume, while fat is a storage tissue, with a low density and large volume. The growth and maintenance of muscle require twice or three times the amount of calories as the same weight of fat. That is, two people with the same weight, the more muscle, the more vigorous the metabolism, and the tighter the figure appears.
Outsiders lose weight, insiders reduce body fat!
We can only lower the body fat rate to a standard level to enhance the body's resistance and improve health indices.
The standard body fat rate range for adults is a standard, men's body fat rate is 15%-18%, and women's body fat rate is 20%-24% as standard. We can see that men's body fat rate standard is lower than women, which is determined by physiological characteristics.
And men's bones are generally larger, so the bone muscle content is also more than women. Therefore, men's daily heat metabolism is generally higher than women, and daily food intake is also higher than women.
For those who want to lose weight, they should reduce body fat rate, not consume their own muscle.Therefore, when choosing a weight loss method, we should take the pros and cons, not blindly follow.
Dieting is unreliablebecause it will consume their own fat while consuming muscle. Daily calorie intake must be higher than the basal metabolic rate to ensure balanced nutrition, in order to reduce muscle loss.
Weight loss pills are also unreliablethey are mostly laxative ingredients, which will only eliminate garbage and water, and cannot decompose fat in the body.
Recommended exercise methods are:Combining aerobic exercise and strength training can increase muscle mass, break down fat, and make you slimmer with a sense of lines, and also maintain a vigorous metabolism, and have a truly easy-to-lose body type.
