Running or jogging is a type of cardiovascular exercise that involves the use of large muscles such as the thigh muscles, calves, etc., and also resulted in an increase in heart rate.
Running will help increase the efficiency of the cardiovascular system, which consists of the heart, blood and blood vessels. Can not be denied, running will help improve the fitness, and help maintain optimum health levels.
In terms of weight management, is running effectively can burn fat and lose weight?
As a beginning, activities such as running requires energy and this energy is obtained from dietary sources (which is converted to energy by the function body). For those who are obese or who suffer from weight, the expectation is to do running and jogging activities, sources of energy will come from the burning of excess fat. Excess fat is stored fat in the abdomen, thighs, arms and chin.
In theory, the fat is burned will be smaller and will reduce levels of body fat.
The effect of this is a reduction in body weight.
However, this does not necessarily occur.
For those who are doing activities that strengthen the muscles (not necessarily go to the gym but just enough to lift moderately heavy dumbbell and so on. Activities of this activity can be done at home,such as run a continuous exercise will cause the system to switch to a muscular body (the weak) to decompose the sources of energy for a weak muscle is more convenient.
Muscles are important sources of protein metabolism process, which works to repair and reinstate the cells in the body. Protein in muscle, if degraded to forms of energy, will result in smaller muscles and thus reducing metobolisme. Negative effects will appear as a decline in the rate of metabolism, the body's ability to burn fat will be stunted.
In addition, a phenomenon that is seen by those who are jogging or doing other cardiovascular activities are, they suffered heavy losses when the exercise is ongoing, but when they cease to do so, their weight began to rise again .. In fact, some experienced a sharp increase in body weight until a new weight more severe than the previous.
There are two reasons for this phenomenon. The first is as described earlier, which caused the loss of muscle which in turn reduce the rate of metabolism.
The second reason is, 'weight' of the lost is water, which is an important component in the body and not fat as ever. It is important to know that water is an essential element that functions to provide oxygen in the metabolism and burning fat.
So, what is the solution for those who want to lose weight?
First, adequate protection should be given to the muscle cells of exercise-related exercises that strengthen muscles. If you participate in sports club or gym is an expensive option, make a little investment to buy a pair of dumbbell, and bench exercises (bench) that can be used to perform muscle exercises. All are available at a price less than RM500.
With the increase and strengthen the muscle cell, you will reduce the tendency of the body to decompose the protein in the muscles as an energy source, but instead will burn excess stored fat in the abdomen, thighs, shoulders, arms and so forth. You'll put yourself on the right track to solve the weight problem.
In addition, exercise increases muscle cells which in turn increases the metabolic rate. The study found that the increase in muscle weight of 0.5 kg will help the body burn excess calories by 50 calories a day.
Remember, this metabolic process occurs all the time no matter when you are sleeping, eating, sleeping, watching movie or work. The only difference is speed. If you managed to increase your metabolism, by controlling your diet and training continues, believe me, your efforts to see the new weight will bear fruit.
