There are effective ways to get rid of lower body fat in summer

With the arrival of hot summer, short skirts and shorts are coming out. It is a good time for women to show off their long and beautiful legs. However, for women with fat in the lower body, they cannot enjoy the joy of liberation, and have to endure the hot and sticky feeling in order to cover up their fat. Summer really forces fat women into a desperate situation. If you want to get rid of lower body obesity in the summer, you must first figure out whether you are suffering from "fat obesity" or "edema obesity"? Now let the experts tell you how to distinguish.

Fat obesity

Pharmacist Zeng Yizhen said that because women's ovaries secrete hormones to protect the uterus, they have more fat in their abdomen, buttocks and inner and outer thighs, and these fats are more difficult to remove. If they also eat more and move less and lack exercise, they will suffer from lower body obesity over time, which will affect their body shape.

For people with fat in the lower body, the best way to eliminate it is to combine exercise with diet control. It is recommended to adopt aerobic exercises that can burn calories and fat more effectively, such as brisk walking, jogging, cycling, indoor exercise bikes, etc. By using this type of exercise to reduce your body fat percentage to the ideal range of 25% for women and 20% for men, and then combining it with a balanced diet, you can effectively improve the curves of your lower body.

Edema type obesity

Women with edema in the lower body usually have puffy legs and loose, soft fat parts. This condition is often caused by eating heavy foods or sitting or standing for long periods of time, which leads to abnormal metabolism and excessive water accumulation in the body, causing edema.

To improve edema-type obesity, you should eat a light diet on weekdays, avoid eating too salty or too sweet food, and avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time. If it is unavoidable, you can wear preventive elastic stockings to reduce the pressure on the leg veins and promote smooth blood return.

In addition, you can also increase the circulation and metabolism of the lower body and eliminate water accumulation through moderate exercise. You can take a warm foot bath before going to bed, and lift your legs for 10 to 15 minutes to help blood circulation in your legs and prevent edema and varicose veins.

Muscular obesity

Lower body muscular obesity is caused by overdeveloped and tight muscles, the most obvious of which is carrot legs. For people with thick muscles, it is recommended to reduce exercise in this area, or use yoga, stretching exercises and other exercises to lengthen the local tight muscles, or use bathing and massage to soften the muscles and improve leg lines. In recent years, more and more people have turned to medical cosmetic methods to improve their looks. Usually, botulinum toxin is injected into the calf muscles to relax overused muscles and make the leg lines softer.

Pharmacist Zeng Yizhen said that many women with lower body obesity may have symptoms of obesity, edema and muscle type at the same time. In addition to focusing on improving the above-mentioned recommended methods, the common method is still a low-fat balanced diet and regular exercise. However, she reminded that you should pay attention to the following principles when exercising to have beautiful lines.

【Seven Principles of Exercise】

1. Warm up before exercise to ensure that your muscles will not be injured by exercise.

2. The intensity of exercise should be increased slowly and gradually until you find the rhythm and intensity that suits you.

3. It is recommended to do aerobic exercise mainly for burning fat. The heart rate needs to be maintained at about 130 beats per minute during exercise, which is about the feeling of being able to talk but not singing smoothly; continue exercising for more than 30 minutes; exercise at least 3 days a week, and slowly increase to five days a week or more.

4. Only by persevering and continuing uninterruptedly can you see the results.

5. If you feel uncomfortable during exercise, you should stop exercising immediately to avoid sports injuries.

6. Every time after doing aerobic exercise, you should do some cool-down exercises to relax yourself and also drink enough water. After exercise, you should avoid refined foods such as high-sugar and high-fat foods. You can reduce starch and increase protein intake to avoid accelerating fat accumulation.
