Weight loss bottleneck, persevere will be rewarded! When losing weight, if suddenly there is a period of time you can not lose weight? Do not panic, you may have encountered a platform period. The platform period, that is, the weight loss stagnation period. This is actually just the body’s normal self-protection phenomenon. In the early stages of weight loss, generally as long as you increase exercise or reduce the intake of a certain amount of diet can make weight loss. But once the body has adapted to the change, it will enter the weight loss plateau. When we reduce the intake of calories for a period of time, the body will adapt to the phenomenon, the food intake of calories as much as possible to absorb and make the most effective use, while reducing the basal metabolic rate, reduce energy consumption, so the calories and reach a new state of equilibrium, the weight will no longer fall, this situation is called. This is actually a self-regulation process of our body, the plateau period usually does not last long, usually 1-3 weeks, long 1 to 3 months or so. Everyone in the weight loss process will have a plateau period, only the length of time varies. After the plateau period, some people think they can’t lose any more weight, so they lose confidence and patience and give up losing weight. The best way to overcome the plateau period is to change and adjust your training program accordingly, and increase and control your calorie intake. Usually you only rely on the same kind of weight loss, such as running, swimming, then you can try to add another exercise or a new cardio exercise, and then add a partial, such as sit-ups, dumbbells. Anaerobic training will not only give you a more solid figure, but your muscles will not lose and shrink. You will definitely feel some strain in the beginning phase, after about 5-7 days, your body will be able to adapt to the change. Increasing the intensity and density of exercise during the plateau period can increase the body’s metabolic rate, resulting in higher calorie consumption and less adaptation of the body’s protective function to the drop in calories, which can effectively shorten the duration of the “stagnation period”. Weight loss is a persistent thing, it is normal to encounter a little bottleneck, persevere will be rewarded.
