Is mountain climbing good for weight loss?

As people's requirements for their own body shape continue to increase in modern society, more and more friends envy those friends with better figures. This gives them a greater advantage in dressing, making their overall body proportions appear more perfect. At the same time, it can also increase your confidence and sense of superiority. So is climbing mountains helpful for weight loss in daily life? With this question raised by everyone, let me find out with you in the following time.

Mountain climbing is an aerobic exercise that can increase the protein in the blood, increase the number of immune cells, enhance immunity, and help excrete carcinogens, harmful substances, toxins, etc. from the body in a timely manner. While promoting metabolism, it also speeds up fat consumption, so mountain climbing also has the effect of beautifying the body and losing weight.

Studies have confirmed that if a person weighing 70 kg climbs a slope of 70 degrees at a speed of 2 kilometers per hour for 30 minutes, the energy consumed is about 500 kcal. It is equivalent to swimming at a speed of 50 meters per minute for 45 minutes, or running continuously on a treadmill at a speed of 8 kilometers per hour for 50 minutes.

1. Remember to spend about ten minutes warming up before climbing and moving all the joints in your body to avoid injury.

2. During the climbing process, you should maintain even breathing and keep your heart rate at the most suitable 120-140 beats/minute.

3. When going up a mountain, it is best to lean your center of gravity forward to save effort; when going down a mountain, walk in a Z shape to reduce the impact on the knee joints.

4. After climbing, be sure to do some relaxing activities to avoid blood circulation obstruction caused by stopping suddenly.

5. Climbing mountains can easily cause sweating. Drinking an appropriate amount of water 15 minutes before exercise, and drinking small amounts of water frequently, can help reduce dehydration during exercise.

I believe that through our understanding of the above, most friends already have their own standard answer to the question of whether mountain climbing is beneficial for weight loss. Although mountain climbing seems simple, we still need to prepare some climbing tools in advance and be familiar with some precautions to avoid accidents during the climbing. If you are going with the elderly and children, you should be more careful.
