I feel exhausted after doing it, but why is there no effect at all?

"I exercise, but why can't I lose weight?" This may be a confusion for many people. Do you know why? Let me tell you the answer now.

1. Exercise time is too short

Exercise is one of the most effective ways to lose weight. The principle of exercise for weight loss is to insist on doing aerobic exercise at least three times a week. Short-term exercise will not have obvious effects. You must persist in exercising to achieve the goal of healthy weight loss.

Cycling, swimming and other exercises can effectively help lose weight as long as they reach a moderate intensity and last longer than 10-15 minutes. Experts remind that it is not a good time to exercise when you are hungry, before meals, or before going to bed.

2. Too much intensity

Exercise to lose weight. Vigorous exercise is ineffective and unhelpful for weight loss. For example, lifting barbells, due to the short exercise time and large amount of exercise, the body's consumption increases sharply. A large proportion of this consumption is sugar and water, which can easily cause hunger and thirst, and will involuntarily increase the amount of food intake. At the same time, this type of exercise is not easy to stick to. When the exercise heart rate exceeds a certain number of times, the fatigue often makes people give up exercise, and weight loss is naturally ineffective.

3. Anaerobic exercise does not help you lose weight

Many young people like high-intensity, high-volume, short-term sports, such as 100-meter and 200-meter sprints, high jump, weightlifting, horizontal bar and parallel bar exercises, etc. These are anaerobic exercises. The main function of anaerobic exercise is to exercise bones, muscles, joints and ligaments, and play a role in strengthening tendons and bones. Although they can enhance human muscles and explosive power, they cannot effectively stimulate heart and lung function. Their fitness effect is not as good as aerobic exercise, and they cannot achieve the effect of healthy weight loss.
