Where can I lose weight by running?

Running is a better way to exercise, and we all know that running does not necessarily mean going outdoors to achieve the same effect. It can also be done at home. It is very effective in slimming the legs, waist, and whole body.

1. The first part of your body to get thin when running is your belly, followed by your calves, and then other parts of your body. During running, the fat on the abdomen will shake the most violently, and coupled with being covered by clothes, the chance of sweating is very high. After running for a distance, your stomach will feel itchy when you stop. This is normal, indicating that the abdomen has been well exercised. As long as you can stick to it, it will be very effective in losing belly fat. In addition, running can also slim your calves. As the calves are in direct contact with the ground, they are constantly moving during the entire running process. It is very necessary to master the correct running posture. If the posture is wrong, the muscles in your calves will become more and more developed, turning you into ugly muscular legs. However, the correct running posture can quickly slim your calves. Finally, insisting on running every day can also help you lose weight all over your body, because it is an aerobic exercise that involves the whole body being active, and the fat on your face, thighs, and neck can be reduced.

2. Warm up before running

The energy in the body is divided into two types: fast energy and reserve energy. Only when the quick energy is almost consumed, your body's reserve energy "fat" will start to burn. That is to say, if your physical fitness is not very good, you may even be tired after running, but the fat has not started to be consumed. Therefore, if you want to lose weight by running effectively, you should do some stretching or relaxation exercises before running. On the one hand, it can warm up and prevent injuries. On the other hand, it can consume some glycogen first, so that the fat burning efficiency can be greatly improved when you run next time.

3. Run for 40 minutes every day

Theoretically, under the premise of sufficient warm-up, jogging for 20 minutes is the time when the rapid energy is almost consumed and the reserve energy fat begins to be mobilized and prepared to burn. If you stop exercising at this time, you will not achieve the goal of fully burning fat and losing weight. Therefore, if you want to lose weight by running, you must run for at least 20 minutes. 40 minutes is the running time recommended by experts.

4. The number of running times should be moderate

Generally, 2 to 3 times a week is better. If you don’t have time for once a week due to busy work, that’s fine too. You can run once or twice on weekdays, and run once on the weekend to relax. "I want to run every day." If you think so, it is best to limit it to 5 times a week, because exceeding this range may unknowingly accumulate bone and joint fatigue and accumulate psychological pressure. Eventually it became the cause of the disease.
