Boosting metabolism to help lose weight? Sufficient sleep can help burn fat

Before sharing about exercise and fitness, I want to emphasize the importance of sleep and rest. Because getting enough sleep is the first step to losing weight. If you delay your sleep time or stay up late, your body won’t be able to repair itself, your metabolism will slow down, and you won’t be able to build muscles! Therefore, no matter how late you stay up to work overtime and then get home, take a hot bath to relax your body and mind, crawl into bed and have a good sleep. "Proper rest" can help you improve your metabolism, help burn fat and build muscle!

Have you ever calculated how much sleep you get in a day? Sufficient and good quality sleep is really important for healthy weight loss! How much sleep each person needs actually depends on each person's physical condition, and there is no absolute answer. However, medical evidence shows that the average sleep for each person should be 6 to 8 hours, which is most appropriate. In particular, if you can choose to fall asleep during the golden sleeping time from 10 pm to 6 am the next day, it will accelerate your metabolism and muscle development, and it is also good for your skin and mental condition, and your body will naturally become healthier and healthier.

But you will definitely start to wonder, for people like artists or others who are in industries that easily cause their work and rest schedules to be reversed, how should they choose the right time to rest? Indeed, I am unable to rest during the golden hours from 10pm to 6am the next morning, but my workaround is to choose to use the "quality" of sleep to make up for the "quantity" mentioned above. For example, after finishing filming, I usually go home directly to take a hot bath and relax, and not let other entertainment and external affairs delay my sleep, thereby improving my sleep quality.

The most natural and harmless way to lose weight and exercise is the golden triangle of "exercise + eating habits + recovery and rest". I will share with you my own insights on exercise and diet later, but as for "rest", I hope everyone can get enough sleep. From now on, leave the nightlife that you can refuse and unnecessary social events as soon as possible, and don’t let yourself lose at the starting point of weight loss and fitness! Moreover, staying up late will cause rapid aging, poor physical condition, and put a burden on the kidneys and liver.

Therefore, the best way to avoid aging is to make an effort to get used to going to bed early and getting up early. Exercise can relieve stress, help you fall asleep more easily, and put insomnia aside. If you suffer from insomnia or your sleep quality is not very good, you should be careful. This may be a warning signal from your body, calling you to "get up and exercise"! After taking a shower, doing some stretching exercises on the bed, or hanging your legs upside down on the wall to relax, etc., are all helpful to fall asleep quickly!

Modern people are under great pressure in life, and habitual insomnia is becoming more and more common. I believe that there are more and more such people around you. If you want to improve insomnia problems, or even cure it once and for all, "exercise" is really a great prescription. I strongly recommend that you try it yourself. Because exercise can relieve your tension, physical and psychological stress, and relax your muscles.

In addition, before going to bed, you can do some stretching exercises, stretch your feet against the wall as far as possible, and let the blood flow backwards for about 10 minutes. At this time, the whole body can be completely relaxed and stretched, and you can continue to exercise to relieve stress. Combined with soothing stretching movements, I believe that the disturbing problem of insomnia should soon go away from you. As long as you take care of the quality of sleep, you can produce leptin and growth hormone, increase the metabolic rate, help burn fat, and at the same time, bones and muscles will grow fully.
