Why is it difficult for men to lose weight?

More and more women don't want their partner to be a "reliable fat". According to an online survey, more than 50% of women aged 20 to 40 care about their partner's figure. If fat men are reliable, they would rather have reliable thin men.

Why are men "thin"?

Some people think that "being broad-minded and fat" is a manifestation of being carefree. This statement is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why most men gain weight quickly after getting married like a balloon.

But in fact, weight increases as a man ages. The average man has about 30 billion fat cells in his body, and these cells become heavier as he ages.

Starting from the age of 20, the ratio of fat and muscle tissue in the body tends to increase. The older you get, the more difficult it is to exercise. The strength and plasticity of muscles begin to decline from the age of 20. By the age of 40, the function of the heart and lungs gradually weakens, the joint ligaments harden, and the body becomes more and more vulnerable to injury.

As a result, almost every man after the age of 30 is always heavier than before. And his genes, hormones and slowed metabolism all began to affect his abdomen. Therefore, losing shape with age is not a woman's monopoly.

Long sedentary hours at work, lack of exercise due to work stress, or seeking comfort from food or alcohol due to depression are all reasons why men get fat.

Moreover, weight and the stress they endure can form a vicious cycle: ordinary people are prone to overeating and indigestion under pressure, resulting in excessive weight, and are therefore more susceptible to stress. (Internship Editor: He Lili)
