6 Mistakes That Prevent Weight Loss (And How to Fix Them)
Many people are starting to lose weight, and the weight loss exercises are basically doing good aerobic training and strength training. But the diet is what confuses many people, because they don't know how to arrange their diet.
Of course, many friends think that their diet control is very good, and they are also very serious in training, but they can't see the effect of weight loss. In fact, eating less and frequently exercising is just a fleeting illusion, especially when it comes to weight loss, you must be honest with yourself.
Many people insist on sticking to weight loss for a period of time, but they can't see the success, which is probably because they made the following 6 mistakes.
Error 1: Eating the wrong foods.
When you start to lose weight, the diet will account for at least 80%, which basically depends on whether you can lose weight based on how you do your diet.
And the amount of calories you take in each day depends on your choice of food, which is why many fitness enthusiasts like to eat completely natural, unprocessed foods.
If you maintain the habit of doing fitness training, you need to learn to skillfully adjust your diet plan.
For example, when you are doing high-intensity strength training, you should take in more complex carbohydrates, such as brown rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and whole grains.
And when you are resting or doing light exercise, you should eat less carbohydrates and focus on eating protein and some fruits and vegetables. And during this period, you should avoid eating too many pastries, bread, and other processed foods. At the same time, when you choose food, you should consciously look at the calorie label, because only by having a clear understanding can you ensure that the things you put into your stomach will help your weight loss plan get closer to success.
Error 2: You eat too much.
As mentioned in point 1, we are trying to choose natural and low-calorie foods, but if low-calorie intake is too much, it will accumulate a terrible number. So, don't relax your vigilance just because a food is healthy,
Because when you have already restrained your food selection and tried to execute it, if you still can't lose weight, it can only mean that you eat too much,
Many people understand that as long as the body consumes fat and maintains a calorie deficit, the body will consume stored fat over time,
So, to avoid eating too much calories and eating too much, you need to learn to record your diet,
But during this period, you should maintain balance and don't use dieting or fasting to simply reduce your weight, because this is likely to lead to your subsequent rebound,
Error 3: Doing too much aerobic training.
When it comes to weight loss, many people think that as long as they work hard on aerobic training, they can lose weight,
Aerobic training is indeed a key part of daily training, it helps maintain our heart health and promotes the body's metabolism, and it can also help us slow down stress. However, any exercise has a limit, and if it exceeds the limit, it may cause some unnecessary trouble,
For example, when you do a long aerobic training, your endurance will definitely improve, but at the same time, your appetite may increase, leading to overeating and overeating,
Although aerobic training will make the weight drop quickly (mostly water), from the perspective of fat burning efficiency, it is not the best choice. Doing too much aerobic training will take away some muscle, which is obviously not what we want. If you really like doing some aerobic training, try to control it for 20-45 minutes, don't do too long aerobic training.
Error 4: Not doing strength training.
As seen in point 3, we don't mean that we don't want to do aerobic training, just because blindly doing aerobic training cannot bring obvious effects to your weight loss plan,

In addition to trying aerobic exercise, you should also try to do some strength training, which can help you maintain muscle growth while losing more fat. Because as your muscle mass increases, the fat you can burn will also increase,
If you only train at home without going to the gym, you can choose HIIT training or try some bodyweight training at home, such as push-ups, squats, lunges, and pull-ups, which are all good starters.
Error 5: Training with too much effort.
It's good to train, but if you just lightly handle some training, you can't guarantee that it will bring some obvious weight loss effects to your body, and it will waste too much time,
Many people like to do a long-term contest, and each time they train, they maintain it for 2-3 hours, because it makes them feel very hardworking. But in fact, your training should mainly rely on intensity, not time.
Because the body won't look at how long you train, it will only determine how much fat it reduces based on your training intensity,
In short, if you want to train, it's better to do more in terms of actual effort than performance.
Error 6: Causing too much stress.
Cortisol is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, and it fluctuates depending on the cause of the body and emotions,
As mentioned earlier, cortisol is a stress hormone. If your body secretes a large amount of cortisol for a long time, it will bring some negative effects to the body, such as increasing muscle breakdown and making fat loss more difficult,
And excessive cortisol secretion is mainly related to stress, and it may occur due to overtraining and emotional or bad living habits. If you maintain too much stress for a long time, your body will secrete too much cortisol, so it's important to maintain your mental state, which can help with weight loss.
Finally, from the overall perspective, weight loss is a very complex thing, it requires you to control your diet, but not to directly stop eating or dieting. It requires you to exercise, but you also need to make clear plans for yourself, do some effective exercises, and don't waste time. At the same time, you also need to take care of your mental state and maintain your activity, and if these are all done well, the rest will be left to time.
