Muscle exercises are a form of high-intensity exercise, so they consume a lot of carbohydrates. However, it does not stop there, anyone who has exercised knows that their body will heat up after the workout. This is the phenomenon of excessive oxygen consumption after exercise (EPOC).
During muscle training, the body falls into a state of lack of oxygen and energy. After stopping exercise, to compensate, the body must increase breathing and metabolism, causing the amount of oxygen consumed to be higher than normal. This process is similar to those when doing aerobics, and helps continue to burn fat even when resting.
In addition, when exercising, the body produces adrenaline and growth hormone, two factors that help increase fat burning speed. In other words, after a muscle training session, the body still maintains the same energy burning state as doing aerobics for a long time.
Kneel to chest
This is a job to train the lower abdominal and lumbar muscles - an important muscle group that helps strengthen the hips and improve the abdominal shape.
How to do it:
Sit with your legs straight, slightly leaning up and back, with your forearms resting to maintain balance. Lift your legs off the ground, tighten your lower abdominal muscles, and keep your chin slightly bent.
The closer you keep your legs to the ground, the greater the impact on your abs. As you exhale, bend your back and pull your knees together until your thighs are at right angles to the ground.
Repeat continuously, trying to maintain until the end of the song, not leaving it halfway.
