It's true that running helps you lose weight quickly, but you should also do this.

It's said that exercising like running or using a treadmill helps you lose weight quickly. Indeed, aerobic exercise is effective in burning body fat and reducing weight. However, experts say that to burn body fat more effectively, you must combine strength training with aerobic exercise. Why?

 

Building muscle through strength training increases your basal metabolic rate, making it even more effective for weight loss than cardio alone. Start with moderate-intensity strength training, then work up to a sweat with cardio. Moderate intensity is defined as lifting a weight you can lift for about 10 repetitions. Slowly increase your intensity for at least three months, combining strength training and cardio to burn more body fat and double your weight loss results.

For your health, it's beneficial to combine aerobic and strength training. In fact, research has shown that combining both types of exercise is effective in preventing "metabolic syndrome," a major cause of chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. A research team led by Professor Cho Young-kyu of the Department of Family Medicine at Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital analyzed the risk of metabolic syndrome in 22,467 people aged 40 and older, dividing them into aerobic, strength-building, and combined (aerobic and strength-building) exercise groups based on their usual exercise patterns. The team compared the risk of metabolic syndrome in men with a non-exercise group. The results showed a 15% lower risk of metabolic syndrome in the aerobic exercise group, a 19% lower risk in the strength-building group, and a 35% lower risk in the combined exercise group. For women, the risk was 17% lower in the aerobic exercise group, 27% lower risk in the strength-building group, and 26% lower risk in the combined exercise group. The research team recommended combining aerobic or strength-building exercises to prevent chronic diseases, rather than focusing solely on one type.

 

 

When dieting, managing your diet is just as important as exercising. If you're dieting, you should break the habit of skipping breakfast. Not eating a proper breakfast can lead to overeating at lunch, which can lead to weight gain. .

 

You're likely to reach for sugary, high-calorie snacks like cookies and chocolate before lunch. Eating three regular meals a day, but slightly reducing the amount you eat at each meal, will help with your diet. If you don't have time for breakfast, consider eating simple foods like boiled eggs, a protein drink, salad, or low-fat yogurt.
