Many women achieve the ideal body in the wrong way and even make simple mistakes that are considered useful. Most women like to believe what they see on billboards and magazines, or what the society thinks is ideal such as society promote so-called “guaranteed methods for weight loss.” Common mistakes made by women include:
- Crash dieting (Drastically reducing calorie consumption.)
- Too much cardio exercise
- Do not use weight
- Excessive concentration exercise
Many people may not know that drastically reduce your calorie consumption is not the best idea for the long-term. Although it may work well in the last few weeks but not sustainable which means that you will resume back regular eating habits in a few months. Unfortunately, all weight loss is restored quickly or getting fatter. Therefore you need to start a good plan to get your body used to, rather than dramatically changing the habit.
Cardio exercise works well for overweight people due to it is a particular way of burning calories. If you are not overweight, then excessive aerobic exercise will cause the body to adapt to it which make you consume more energy and sugary food. So that why sprinters are strong and cross-country athletes are thin. Your body needs more energy to maintain the habit and begins to use the oxygen and power of the muscles to keep. Another effect is the production of cortisol hormones, so it consumes muscle tissue and slows down protein synthesis. The less muscle mass means a slower metabolism when the body is inactive. So combine it with other factors makes it easy to gain weight while your body is not active.
Not use weights at all is not a good idea since muscle creation is essential. You should have a good diet and a great cardio routine. But excessive workouts is not a good idea neither due to body needs recovery time for the muscles to grow. Therefore, you should proper distribute your exercise evenly throughout the week and make sure you every workout hard.
