Jogging makes you lose weight! 2 ways to burn fat: high knee and high leg raises

I'm eating less, but I still can't lose weight? Try jogging! Running can speed up your heartbeat, stimulate blood circulation, and dramatically consume body fat, helping you lose those crucial 5 kilograms. Fitness coaches say that maintaining the correct running posture and combining the two warm-up exercises of high knee and high leg raises can more effectively help burn fat and lose weight.

Jogging can effectively help burn body fat, allowing you to maintain your curves while being healthy and slim.

Fitness coach Mimi pointed out that if you want to achieve the maximum fat burning effect within a certain period of time, the most recommended exercise is jogging. Maintain the correct running posture, and do a good job of warming up before running and cooling down after running. Adjust the amount of exercise according to your personal physical condition, and maintain it for about 15 to 30 minutes a day. This will not only help you lose annoying body fat, but it will also be very helpful for your mental and sleeping conditions.

Warm-up and fat-burning action 1: High knee lift

Teacher Mimi mentioned that correct warm-up allows the body to enter the exercise state faster, increases body temperature and oxygen content, strengthens muscle regulation ability, and allows the body to adapt to exercise intensity faster. I’d like to share two warm-up exercises: high knee raises and high leg raises. You can practice them more before running.

The key to high knee raises is to lift both knees separately, and when the knees are raised, they should be approximately parallel to the navel. The mantra is "right foot, left foot" and keep alternating until the body feels warm. It is generally recommended to do the movement for 3 to 5 minutes. If you are new to jogging, you can count the number of times, 20 to 30 times (count left and right each time), and slowly increase the amount of training.

Warm-up and fat-burning action 2: High leg raise

The key to high leg raises is to lift both legs separately, with the toes preferably slightly higher than the navel. Do this until your body becomes warm. Because the intensity is slightly stronger than high knee raises, you can shorten the action time slightly. In addition, remember that when you raise your legs high, your arms can swing along with the movement to increase body coordination.

Jogging: Land on the soles of your feet first and don’t move your legs up

Teacher Mimi reminded that after doing high knee and leg raises, you can feel your body completely warm and slightly sweating, and this is the best time to start jogging.

After you start jogging, maintain regular breathing and pace, keep your arms on both sides of your body, swing them naturally, don't lean your center of gravity too much forward, and make sure your feet land on the ground first. If your center of gravity is wrong, your toes will land on the ground first and you will end up running with shaggy legs. If you are not careful! In addition, stretching and doing exercises after running can also help burn fat and avoid muscle soreness in your "iron" legs.
