What are the misunderstandings about aerobic exercise training?

Aerobic exercise is a type of exercise that has attracted much attention nowadays. The reason why it has attracted so much attention is that it not only includes many exercise methods, but also has health-preserving effects. In our lives, Tai Chi, swimming, brisk walking, jogging, etc. are all aerobic exercises. However, in recent years, I have found that people have made some mistakes when doing aerobic exercise training. What are the specific situations? Let’s take a look with me now!

Myth 1: Aerobic exercise is better than strength training for controlling body fat.

Fact: Combining aerobic exercise with strength training is the best way to keep body fat at an ideal level. Many people mistakenly believe that aerobic exercise alone is most effective for controlling and reducing body fat for two reasons.

Myth 2: The more aerobic exercise, the better.

Fact: A good thing done too much may turn into a bad thing and lead to the opposite result. The same is true for aerobic exercise. Although it is an effective lipid

It is a way to burn fat, but long-term aerobic exercise burns more than just fat.

Myth 3: Low-intensity aerobic exercise burns more fat.

Facts: Not true. The principle of fat loss is that you need to consume more calories than you absorb every day. Higher-intensity exercise can consume more calories than low-intensity training.

Myth 4: You can only become slim by doing aerobic exercise first and then strength training.

Fact: In order to burn more calories, a certain intensity is required in aerobic activities. The ideal way is to reach more than 70% of the maximum heart rate. The purpose of strength training is to increase muscle, and the ideal weight is to repeat 6-12 times per set with the correct posture.

Misconception 5: Do 20 minutes more of aerobic exercise to burn off the extra sweets or other delicacies you eat.

Fact: If you occasionally extend your aerobic exercise time to burn off the extra sweets you eat, there is nothing wrong with that, but if it becomes a habit, the result will only be harmful rather than beneficial.
