New Yoga Life

Yoga to lose weight, why do some people look thin, weight is not reduced but increased?

There are often yoga students or members will ask: “everyone says that I am thin, and I also feel that the weight on both sides of the abdomen and waist is significantly less, but the weight on the scale is actually increased

.

“Beginners of yoga, especially those who come to study yoga to lose weight, often feel like this: after practicing yoga for a period of time, they seem to have lost a lot of weight on the surface, but as soon as they get on the scale, their weight not only doesn’t decrease, but also increases

.

But the complexion obviously looks good, the skin on the face also becomes tight, even the lower abdomen is more flat

.

Why? Weight loss ≠ weight loss many friends will equate weight loss with weight loss, but in fact, weight loss is not exactly the same as weight loss

.

The real way to lose weight is to lose fat, not just the number on the scale

.

Most people who look thin but gain weight after yoga, fitness and exercise, the reason is that their body’s original muscle is insufficient, so they insist that the increased muscle weight after exercise should be greater than the reduced fat content, especially some people with weak Qi and blood

.

After practicing yoga, their body is obviously much tighter, so they will gain weight instead of losing weight

.

For people with poor physical fitness and insufficient muscle content, persisting in exercise for a period of time will lead to the increase of protein content in the muscle, and protein needs to combine with water in the body

.

A kilo of muscle protein will combine with 3.5 kilos of water

.

So if you consume a kilo of fat and add a kilo of muscle protein, the natural weight gain will be greater than the weight loss

.

So: you don’t have to worry about the number of weight..

.

Because Light weight doesn’t mean beautiful figure

.

Look at the following pictures and you will agree with me! It’s the same 130 pounds weight, the figure is different from two sizes ▽ before 125 pounds fitness, pk130 pounds weight gain after fitness, the line is more beautiful ▽ in fact, weight can lie, your weight is not as bad as you think, so it’s unscientific to deliberately pursue weight in a certain number

.

The same weight table now varies from person to person

.

A girl over 120 Jin seems to most of us It’s absolutely obese

.

Is it shocking to see the comparison between her figure on the left and her weight on the right (62kg)? She’s the most popular fitness website in the United States

.

Paige is supposed to be obese when she gains weight, but why does she look thin instead? Weight is not the best measure of obesity

.

Someone said, is fat is thin, do not look at weight, look at what? Here the Yoga person small make up provides several slightly reliable standard

.

Most of the thinness and fatness you see with your naked eye are real

.

When you start to lose weight, take a picture of yourself

.

Please note that it is not allowed to have 45 ° elevation angle here

.

There can’t be P-map

.

Anyway, it’s just as true as it is

.

After losing weight for a period of time, take a picture of yourself from the same angle

.

Two contrast a look, obviously thin, then you also calculate success

.

BMI index BMI is the body mass index, which is commonly used to measure the degree of obesity and health in the world

.

The Chinese standard is as follows: specific calculation method: body mass index (BMI) = weight (kg) × square of height (m)

.

For example, a 1.6m female with a weight of 60kg, her BMI = 60 × (1.6×1.6) ≈ 23.44, if your BMI is decreasing

.

So you can think you’re losing weight

.

Body fat rate body fat rate refers to the proportion of body fat weight in the total body weight, also known as body fat percentage

.

It reflects the amount of body fat content and the degree of obesity

.

If the body fat rate decreases, it means that the fat content in your body decreases, then you are really thin

.

Generally speaking, the male body fat rate between 10% and 20% is normal, and the female body fat rate between 17% and 30% is standard

.

The male body fat rate > 25%, female body fat rate > 33% is obesity

.

However, this standard is not fixed and will change with age

.

For women over 50 years old and men over 55 years old, the standard value of body fat percentage can be increased by 2% – 3% every 5 years old

.

Body fat rate calculation formula now many measuring instruments can measure a person’s body fat rate, but if you don’t want to rely on the measuring instrument, you can use BMI to calculate the body fat rate

.

The calculation formula is: body fat% = 1.2 × BMI + 0.23 × age-5.4-10.8 × gender (male gender = 1, female gender = 0)

.

If a 20-year-old woman weighs 50kg and is 1.6m tall, her BMI = 50 ÷ 1.62 ≈ 19.53, her body fat rate is: 1.2 × 19.53 + 0.23 × 20-5.4-10.8 × 0 = 22.636

.

Look at the above pictures, 65kg weight + 19% body fat rate vs 65kg weight+ 9% body fat rate is the same 65 kg, but the painting style is completely different! Because the weight of muscle is different from the weight of fat

.

Two people who are both 65 kg, if they have low body fat, they will look stronger; relatively speaking, those with high body fat will look fatter; that is to say, even if some people have heavy weight, it does not mean that you are fat

.

WHR can’t reflect a person’s visceral fat, no matter BMI or body fat rate, so who takes WHR as the standard to judge a person’s visceral fat

.

Waist circumference ≥ 102CM for male, ≥ 88cm for female or WHR > 1.0 for male and > 0.9 for female were central obesity

.

But this standard in our country, male waist circumference ≥ 85CM, female waist circumference ≥ 80cm is already regarded as central obesity

.

At present, the average WHR of Asian men is 0.81, and that of Asian women is 0.73; the average WHR of European and American men is 0.85, and that of European and American women is 0.75

.

As for the most perfect waist to hip ratio, there is no fixed international standard, but it is generally recognized that the ideal waist to hip ratio for women is between 0.67 and 0.80, and the more suitable waist to hip ratio is 0.72

.

When WHR is less than 0.72, women’s figure will be pear shaped; when WHR is more than 0.72, women’s figure will be apple shaped

.

The ideal waist hip ratio for men is between 0.85 and 0.95

.

So don’t focus on your weight

.

Weight doesn’t have to be honest

.

You may be fatter or thinner than you think

.

Whether you are thin or fat, you should be optimistic about the standard

.

If you feel uneasy about one standard, you can have more than one standard

.

If all the criteria tell you that you’re thin, you’re really thin..
