Fitness is something that everyone needs, some to maintain a good body, some to improve their figure, and some to lose weight. But in the process of fitness, there are also many problems that can be encountered. The auxiliary tools for fitness include waist belts. In fact, are waist belts good for the body? Let's learn about the hazards of fitness belts with the editor below.
The hazards of wearing fitness belts
1. Affects blood circulation. Tightly wrapping the waist with a waistband can create a curve in the waist, but it also divides the body's blood circulation into two parts. On the one hand, it increases the afterload on the heart during contraction, which can lead to hypertension and coronary heart disease in middle age over time; On the other hand, it compresses the abdominal cavity, restricting the activity of abdominal organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and kidneys, resulting in poor blood flow and affecting their function.
2. Obstructing breathing, abdominal muscles are powerful assistants in respiratory movements. When a person breathes, the contraction and relaxation of abdominal muscles can assist in the up and down movement of the diaphragm, which is beneficial for the progress of respiratory movements. If the waist is too tight, this movement will be obstructed, affecting the entire lung capacity, leading to insufficient oxygen supply throughout the body, which can easily cause dizziness and respiratory infections.
How to lose weight correctly
1. Low fat foods can save a lot of calories because fat contains twice as many calories as protein and carbohydrates. After reducing the fat content, many foods still taste similar to before, of course, there is no need to skim off all the fat. A cup of low-fat milk contains 86 calories, while a cup of whole milk contains 150 calories. Boiled tuna contains 66 calories, while fried tuna contains 110 calories. Low fat cheese and low-fat salad dressing can make food equally delicious, but consume fewer calories.
2. Eating desserts does not cause a surge in calories. Fat free yogurt, regular cookies, and fruit desserts all contain cream, which can satisfy those who want to eat desserts, and the calorie content is not high. If you eat a pint of cream ice cream, you immediately consume 1000 calories. When you freeze low-fat milk ice cream in the refrigerator, you only consume 100 to 150 calories.
The hazards of wearing fitness belts have been briefly introduced above. A waistband can compress many tissues in the body, so it is not recommended to use this type of waistband. Both body shaping and weight loss require the right methods, and improving one's diet is a good approach. Eat less sugary foods, have balanced nutrition, eat more vegetables, eat less outside, and be light and healthy for the body.
