Can push-ups help you lose weight?

I believe push-ups are an exercise that many girls are reluctant to do, especially those who seldom exercise. Girls usually have weak upper limb strength and incorrect postures, so they can only do two push-ups. After that, they will probably just stay on the ground and not want to get up. Many girls think that doing push-ups can only exercise the strength of the arms and make themselves stronger, but can push-ups actually help lose weight? Is this true? Let’s take a look together.

In addition to being a horizontal exercise that strengthens the body and exercises the chest muscles, push-ups are also a great exercise for losing weight. Push-ups do not require any equipment, so you can do them anytime and anywhere, which is extremely convenient.

Doing push-ups requires a lot of effort, so after doing 10 you will be exhausted and vow never to do this kind of exercise again. However, the fat-burning effect of this exercise is worth your anticipation, because this exercise will exercise the head, back, waist and buttocks, and of course the most important thing is to exercise your arm strength.

However, some people say that doing push-ups can only exercise the abdominal muscles and arm strength, and the effect on weight loss is not very obvious. You can try doing it first, 10 each time, and then gradually increase it, and stick to it for 15-20 minutes every day. In addition, Baike Girls recommends that girls combine it with other exercises, so that the fat-burning effect will be more significant.

When doing push-ups, it is recommended that girls can combine it with other exercises. This way it will be less boring and monotonous. You should really like sports instead of treating push-ups as a job, otherwise it will be difficult to stick to it. In addition to doing push-ups, you can also practice yoga, or jog, sit-ups are also OK.

Girls should not do too many push-ups and should not exercise for too long, otherwise it may harm the body. You can't eat when you start doing push-ups, otherwise you will vomit easily, but don't do push-ups on an empty stomach, because you won't have the strength to support your small body without eating.

Since push-ups are a type of strength training and their main function is to exercise muscles, combining them with other aerobic exercises will have a more obvious effect on weight loss (reducing arms). It is generally recommended to do it about 3 times a week, 1-3 sets each time, 8-12 times/set.

Of course, if you want to lose weight, you must persist in exercising for a long time and not give up halfway. After you exercise for a period of time, you will fall in love with push-ups, and it will become easy to do them. You will like the feeling of sweating. If you want to lose weight all over your body, you need to combine it with other exercises, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid greasy food.
