Regarding HIIT, it is recommended not to blindly follow; it is suitable for those with a basic foundation.
- Shaping starts with reducing fat, and the most effective way to reduce fat is HIIT training. Publicly recognized #HIIT. It's recommended for those with some basic knowledge to get started.
Recently, everyone has been staying home, and some friends can't resist exercising. Some people asked if HIIT is effective for fat loss, and if I can do it.
HIIT is a currently popular exercise method, with obvious fat-reducing training effects, and because of its short duration, it is loved by people with busy schedules and who hate long-term exercise. But not everyone can do HIIT!
What exactly is HIIT?
HIIT stands for High-intensity Interval Training, which means any exercise can be training, but the key is 'high intensity' and 'interval'.
Intensity refers to the intensity of the exercise; the higher the intensity, the more difficult you will feel. Interval refers to a strict regulation of the rest time for multiple trainings. So, when you haven't recovered yet, the next round of new exercises has already begun.
HIIT consumes so much energy, why isn't it suitable for ordinary people to do it?
1. Intensity is too high
I have researched some HIIT exercises in fitness apps. For those who don't have much exercise experience and are slightly obese, it's definitely high intensity, even ultra-high intensity. Usually, the biggest exercise volume is going to and from work using the subway, such a high intensity, of course, it's not suitable.
2. Actions are not suitable
Many HIIT tutorials basically include jumping, squats, and even knee twists. These actions have a large range of motion and fast speed, and if you weigh more, you will inevitably bear a huge pressure, and after a long time, it will definitely damage your joints.
If slow running wears down your knee joints over time, HIIT wears them down in a short time and the degree of wear is much greater. More seriously, it may cause damage to your meniscus or other soft tissues. Therefore, HIIT is not suitable for friends whose weight exceeds the normal standard.
3. No exercise foundation
Even if your weight is within the normal range, you should not be careless, because most people who blindly practice are those who have no much exercise foundation, which means their muscle strength is weak and their fat content is higher, and the risk of exercise injury is also high.
Who is suitable for doing HIIT?
1. People with good exercise foundation and regular exercise habits;
2. Those who don't have exercise injuries, such as meniscus injury, patellar tendinopathy, etc.;
3. Those who don't have some basic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, etc.
How to do HIIT without causing injury?
1st point: Because HIIT exercise is very intense, you must first warm up before doing it.
2nd point: HIIT has many jumping actions, so everyone needs to make knee joint cushioning when landing, use hip muscles to generate power, and protect the knee joint.
3rd point: HIIT is not suitable for daily practice, you must pay attention to a 24h recovery period because most of the actions of HIIT are not friendly to the joints, so after training you must do stretching and relaxation.
- I hope everyone can go smoothly in their weight loss and exercise, and everything will go smoothly and have a good fortune......
