Why Yoga Doesn't Help You Lose Weight

We often hear that many women use yoga methods, but fail to achieve their ideal weight loss results. In fact, when this problem occurs, you need to rationally understand that yoga is not a fundamental method of weight loss. It is only a sport that helps weight loss. If you only practice yoga and do not pay attention to your diet, then naturally it will not play a good role in helping you lose weight. Therefore, when practicing yoga to lose weight, you must also pay attention to your diet. Combining diet and various exercises is the best way to lose weight.

Some celebrities with good figures are fans of yoga, but a recent study in the United States shows that practicing yoga is not very effective in maintaining body shape or losing weight. At best, it can only serve as a supplement to aerobic fitness exercises.

It's surprising that people don't all embrace yoga. Despite the perfect bodies of the likes of Paltrow, Christie and Madonna, many people still don't understand the charm of this ancient sport. Practicing yoga may have benefits in other areas, but it has few physical benefits. The average yoga class doesn't increase heart rate or burn as many calories as a slow walk. Even yoga moves are not as effective as light aerobic exercise.

A fitness physiologist said: "If people think yoga can help them lose weight and keep in shape, they are really wrong. Yoga can improve the body's flexibility, but it doesn't help much in other places." According to statistics, in recent years, yoga has been very popular in European and American countries. Many people regard it as an important means of fitness. In the UK alone, there are 1.5 million people practicing yoga, mainly yoga qigong. In the study, conducted by the American Fitness Association, some women were sent to attend yoga and qigong classes three times a week for 55 minutes each time, while the rest of the women were asked not to participate in any of what the researchers called "active fitness."

I hope that friends who want to lose weight can pay attention to these common sense issues and not fall into the misunderstanding of yoga weight loss, because this will only make your weight loss more difficult. If you want to lose weight successfully, we need to pay attention to various weight loss methods. It is very important to combine them. Moreover, losing weight is not something that can be achieved quickly. You need to pay attention to persistence.
