Moderate-intensity exercise for more than 30 minutes is the best for burning fat!

Everyone says that if you want to lose weight you must exercise, which will not only help you lose fat and improve your complexion, but also keep your skin from becoming loose and dull. However, if you want to lose weight through exercise, which type of exercise is most effective in burning fat? Some people say: "High-intensity exercise is the most effective way to burn fat." But some people also say: "Moderate and low-intensity exercise is the best way to burn fat." Which statement is correct? Let the sports coach answer!

High-intensity exercise is difficult to sustain, and prolonging the time of moderate-intensity exercise is more effective in burning fat

Coach Zhou Boyang said that although the higher the intensity of exercise, the more calories and fat can be consumed, it is difficult for most people to continue exercising at high intensity. For people who want to lose weight through exercise, it is recommended to focus on moderate-intensity exercise. At this time, the exercise time can be extended and the proportion of fat consumed will be relatively higher.

For example, for a 30-year-old office worker with a resting heart rate of 60 beats per minute, when he or she is doing continuous brisk walking or easy jogging, the heart rate reaches the range of 112 to 138 beats per minute, and is higher than the first ventilation threshold VT1, which means that the body can withstand the critical value of this exercise intensity. At this time, the body will start to feel breathless and unable to speak a sentence of 20 words continuously. For this person, this exercise intensity is moderate intensity exercise.

Moderate-intensity aerobic exercise for 30 minutes will start to burn fat

Usually, as long as moderate-intensity aerobic exercise lasts for more than 30 minutes, the body's energy source will change from the original 50-50 ratio of carbohydrates and fats to using more fat. The longer the exercise time, the higher the proportion of fat used.

If you want to achieve the effect of "burning fat" during exercise, it is recommended to engage in moderate-intensity exercise, and the exercise time should last at least 30 minutes.

Coach Zhou Boyang pointed out that if you want to achieve the effect of "burning fat" during exercise, it is recommended to engage in moderate-intensity exercise, and the exercise time must last at least 30 minutes. If the exercise time is less than 30 minutes and the intensity of aerobic exercise is less than moderate intensity, the fat burning effect will be limited.

【Health Tips】:

The key to successful weight loss is calorie intake. When calorie consumption is greater than the calories consumed, the body will start to consume fat due to insufficient energy, and in the long run, it will achieve the effect of weight loss. However, if the amount of exercise increases and the amount of food consumed also increases, resulting in calorie intake greater than consumption, then the excess calories will still be converted into fat and stored in the body. People are reminded that losing weight requires not only exercise, but diet control is also very important!

If you want to lose weight successfully, the most important key is "calorie" intake. We remind people that losing weight is not only about exercise, but diet control is also very important!
