Does aerobics generally help you lose weight?

It is often seen that some white-collar workers rush to the gym after get off work. They not only use fitness equipment, but also often do aerobics, which is said to have a very good effect on weight loss. As a result, more and more beauty lovers begin to try this method, and they hear mixed responses. So can aerobics help you lose weight? In response to this objection, let us move on to the following study today.

All human life activities require energy, and the human body's energy comes from three nutrients in the body: sugar, fat, and protein. These nutrients produce energy through very complex biochemical processes in the human body. We know that combustion requires oxygen, and the release of energy by nutrients in the human body is also the result of interaction with oxygen. The human body stores various "fuels". People only eat at regular intervals, but oxygen needs to be breathed in all the time. Under normal circumstances, such as studying, jogging, light physical labor, etc., the oxygen supply is sufficient. At this time, nutrients in the human body, such as glucose, undergo gas-respiration. One gram of glucose produces about 16 kilojoules of energy, and the products are carbon dioxide and water. Similarly, when doing aerobics, although the human body consumes more energy, it still maintains the level of aerobic metabolism. This is enough to consume a lot of fat, sugar, etc. It has a good slimming effect.

Aerobics is a brand-new concept of aerobic exercise that combines elements of standard club aerobics with modern popular dance, so that aerobics can burn fat and achieve fitness and weight loss effects over a relatively long period of time. [1] The advantage of aerobics is that it exercises the heart and lungs, allowing the cardiovascular system to more effectively and quickly transport oxygen to every part of the body. Moreover, aerobics is more interesting than other sports. The movements are simple and easy to learn. The music has a clear rhythm and is more effective in pleasing the body and mind and enhancing physical health. As a sport, aerobics occupies a very important position in my country's national fitness activities and has been a very popular sport in recent years.

There are many criteria for determining obesity, such as body mass index (BMI), waist-to-arm ratio, and body fat percentage. BMI is calculated based on height and weight (body index = weight (kg) / height (cm)), which is simple but inaccurate; waist-to-arm ratio is a simple and applicable standard commonly used in the West in recent years. Many studies have shown that it has a high correlation with the incidence of cardiovascular diseases; and the real standard for determining obesity is the percentage of body fat, that is, the measurement of body composition.

I believe that as long as you read the above content carefully, you will better understand the benefits of aerobics for weight loss. This way you will be more comfortable doing this kind of gymnastics, but you should also arrange the time for gymnastics reasonably. Don't exceed your limited physical strength just because you want to achieve the effect of weight loss quickly. This will be more counterproductive than beneficial. So no matter what you do, just do your best.
