An Effective Way to Lose Weight: Jogging

A recent study has shown that if you go jogging wrongly, you can not lose weight.People who want to lose weight usually get the advice that you should go jogging daily. But actually, it does not help you lose weight as much as you think. It will help your tissues and muscles become solid, the amount of fat be burnt more, but the weight does not reduce at all. The reason is muscle tissues are heavier than fat so they are heavier though they are smaller. According to the research of the professors of physical training at Birmingham University of Exercises and Sports in England, after jogging, your weight maybe does not decrease, and even increases but your physique is firmer.Therefore, what is the reason causing jogging to make you gain weight instead of losing weight?Eating before exercising Running consumes a large amount of body energy. Many people feel ravenously hungry during or after exercise. Therefore, they usually tend to eat before jogging to resist hunger. The adequate supply of energy for the body to practice is necessary but you should not eat too much. You should just eat some cookies or drink a small glass of milk 30 minutes before training so the effectiveness of exercise will be much better.Jogging too little If you have run for weeks but did not see the results, that clearly means there is something wrong with the training method. Jogging for 45 to 60 minutes a week does not mean much to weight loss. If you want to reduce about 1 pound in 7 days, you need to consume 500 calories more, equivalent to 4-to-5-kilometre jogging a day. Inadequate jogging will just make the body ask for more energy and if the daily food intake is a little bit more than the calories burnt, you will get fat quickly.


Running too slowly After you return home from the gym, your body is soaked with sweat and you believe that you have just burnt 500 calories but it is not true. A person who weighs 150 pounds will burn 495 calories after running for 45 minutes at the pace of 16 kilometres per hour. To be sure about the calories consumed, please pay attention to the calorie counter at the treadmill and run faster than usual.Change the running scheduleIf you already have a standard running schedule with a stable pace, you should change your running road after 1 to 2 weeks. The reason is that your body was familiar with the running terrain and the efficiency of weight loss will be low. Therefore, if you find a steep terrain and unsteady road surface, your muscles will consume more energy that will increase the efficiency of weight loss.
