I keep running but I don’t lose weight. Many girls want to cry after reading the truth.

[Introduction] More and more young girls like to lose weight by jogging. It not only has the effect of bodybuilding and slimming, but also increases their physical fitness. However, as long as you implement this method of weight loss, you will encounter a "wall period". Even if you run more and longer, your weight will not fall off! Why is it that I keep running but don’t lose weight? Here are some reasons why you may not lose weight even though you keep running.

The reason why I keep running but still don’t lose weight

First of all, you must realize that your body is actually quite powerful. It can adapt to any physical changes you bring to it. This is the most fundamental reason why many girls do not lose weight in the later stages of running! Because your metabolic system will also "learn". When you get used to a certain intensity and fatigue level of exercise, your body will be able to cope with it without consuming as many calories as before. This is why running to lose weight is usually only effective in the first week.

When you hit a wall, just run an extra mile! Let me tell you, it’s wrong to think like this! If you run for too long, you may gain weight. Let me first explain why running longer does not necessarily make you lose weight. As mentioned above, the metabolic system will get used to it, so if you always jog within the "easy range that the body can bear", you will only feel that your physical strength has improved after running, and at most it will help maintain your current weight. If you want to truly break through the weight loss wall period, you should speed up your running speed within the same exercise time to help burn fat.

Here you have to accept a new fact:

Everything you do in your daily life can burn calories more easily than exercise! The energy we need to sleep, eat, and think is definitely beyond your imagination. The reason why "exercise" can make you lose weight is that exercise allows your body to produce muscles. The tighter the body and the more muscles we have, the more calories we consume when we are active. So it is not exercise that makes you thin, but the muscles produced during exercise that allow you to metabolize more calories when chatting, eating and sleeping in daily life.

To sum up, the muscles that can be formed by running are quite limited, especially when you continue to run at the same speed, your figure can only be "maintained" but not "lost". At this time, you might as well try riding a bicycle! Experiments have proven that, compared to running, cycling is more helpful for muscle shaping and calorie consumption. But girls don’t have to worry about turning into “muscle girls”. As long as you do proper stretching after exercise, you won’t have carrot legs!
