Now the sport of swimming is becoming more and more popular. In some places such as public swimming pools, you can see people swimming every day. People usually come here for the purpose of fitness and weight loss, especially girls who love beauty, who hope to lose weight by swimming. So can regular swimming really have a significant effect on weight loss? The editor will tell you the detailed answer below. Swimming is a whole-body exercise that helps improve cardiopulmonary function and exercises almost all muscles in the body. Moreover, the density and heat transfer performance of water are greater than those of air, so swimming consumes more energy than other sports. Experiments show that the calories consumed by staying in 12-degree water for 4 minutes are equivalent to the calories consumed in one hour on land at the same temperature. It can be seen that under the same time and intensity, the heat consumed in water is much greater than that on land. The energy consumed during exercise is constantly replenished by sugar and fat in the body, so regular swimming will gradually reduce excess fat in the body. In addition, the resistance to human movement in water is 12 times greater than on land. When your hands and feet move in the water, you will definitely feel a strong resistance, so the muscles of your back, chest, abdomen, buttocks and legs can be well exercised during swimming. The well-defined muscles on the swimmers' bodies are the best evidence. When swimming, the metabolism rate of human body tissues and cells will be greatly accelerated. In about 30 minutes, more than 260 calories can be consumed. Moreover, this metabolic rate can be maintained for a period of time after the human body leaves the water. It can be seen that swimming is an ideal way to lose weight. It is not difficult to conclude from the article that swimming can indeed help lose weight. Therefore, friends who have this need may wish to learn swimming and keep up with the pace to achieve a certain amount of exercise. In addition, you must pay attention to your own safety when swimming to avoid some sudden accidents. |
