How men should stay away from beer bellies
Nasty beer belly:
Different from women who gain weight after marriage, most men will not grow into a "pear shape" after the age of 35. Fat is mainly accumulated on the buttocks and thighs, but will grow into an "apple shape", that is, fat is mostly accumulated on the waist and abdomen-Beer belly slowly protrudes out. In serious cases, even when buying western pants, they find that their waist has exceeded the length of the pants. When men look down, they can't even see their toes, only the buttons on the belt.
In the past, people didn't have a deep understanding of the harm of waist and abdomen fat accumulation. Everyone thought that beer bellies made mature men more elegant. Now more and more people realize that fat accumulated in the waist and abdomen is more likely to invade the organs and enter the blood., is a more "bad" fat than accumulated in the buttocks and thighs.
Beer bellies not only put a heavy burden on men and often cause back pain, but also easily injured knees during exercise. It is also the "explosive culprit" of 39 diseases. Men who have beer bellies and are overweight will suffer from many "geriatric diseases" in advance-the age of onset of heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other diseases will all be greatly advanced.
What your wife can do with you:
1. Adjust your husband's diet. As men get older, their metabolism begins to slow down and they need fewer calories than when they are young. At this time, the intake of fat and carbohydrates should be reduced, but the demand for nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals has increased. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the intake of iron, calcium, protein, folic acid and vitamins C, D, and B12 in the family diet.
In particular, protein intake will increase the feeling of fullness and strengthen muscles, while folic acid, rich in green vegetables, fruits and milk, and vitamin B12 will work together to resist the laziness unique to middle age.
2. I often exercise with my husband. Couples over the age of 30 often exercise together, which not only reduces fat and increases physical fitness, but is also a key way to enhance the sense of intimacy between the two parties.
If your husband's beer belly is small, you can try playing badminton, running, cycling, and hiking; if his beer belly is quite large, swimming three times a week is a good fitness method, and the buoyancy of water can greatly reduce the load on your knees during exercise.
3. Increase opportunities for walking. Advise him that instead of looking for a parking space close to him, park his car farther away to increase his chances of walking. Rest can clear your mind and reduce your chances of eating calories more than any drink.
4. Take less elevators and take more stairs. People who climb a total of 16 floors a day will greatly reduce the chances of their bellies sticking out. (Internship Editor: He Lili)
