Maintaining good posture is also a way to lose weight

Pick the simplest formula to introduce: WHR= Waist/Hip Circumference In terms of health, the worst fat accumulation is the apple shape located on the abdomen. The ideal number is below 0.8. A number above this means that you prefer the apple shape. Summer is a good time to lose weight. First check whether you are fat enough and need to lose weight.

A good posture is also a kind of exercise to lose weight. Some people may feel that posture has nothing to do with weight loss. In fact, having a good attitude for a boy can not only give a good impression of being upright, but also reflect his figure and consume more fat by the way.

I remember reading a book saying that people need to use more than thirty expression muscles to smile, but when they laugh, they only need a dozen expression muscles. The human body is wonderful, and it is often such subtle details to show its powers. It's not the only way to exercise like sweating can burn more calories.

Okay, now let's talk about bad postures in detail. The most common ones are chest, bulging belly, bent back, and extended head forward. The affected body parts include:

Shoulder, unnaturally retracted;

Neck, increased force;

On the upper back, the ligaments are tightened; the thorax is compressed and the lung is blocked;

Long-term stress on the waist and ligaments can lead to inflammation or sciatica in severe cases. Long-term poor posture can even lead to shoulder and neck pain, cervical spondylosis, and thoracic spine displacement.

Among all the corrective measures, choose the simplest introduction: stand with your back against the wall and strive to keep every inch close to the wall, including your waist and heels. It was almost like pouring out. Steady and hold on for more than 10 minutes a day. When you walk and stand yourself, you should also pay attention to your posture.

There are too many theories about weight loss through exercise, but they all have their basic principles.

2. Basic principles for weight loss through exercise:

1. Reduce insulin levels: To make the body burn fat, the insulin that regulates fat metabolism in the body should be reduced to a low level. Therefore, it takes at least 15 minutes to exercise to lose weight.

Because in the first 5 minutes, the energy needed for exercise comes from blood sugar and glycogen, not fat. After that, insulin levels drop, fat is released for metabolism, and there is still enough oxygen to be considered a "burning" effect.

2. Reduce the proportion of fat to total body weight: During exercise to lose weight, muscle exercise cannot be ignored. Strength exercise strengthens muscles. An increase in the proportion of muscles can not only improve exercise ability, but also increase the static metabolic rate, thereby increasing the body's daily energy expenditure and reducing the chance of fat accumulation.

This type of exercise includes moderate weightlifting, chest stretching, pull-ups, etc. Other trainings that improve cardiopulmonary function, such as running, rowing, swimming, cycling, etc., can exercise cardiopulmonary function and endurance and stimulate fat metabolism.
