A sedentary lifestyle and sitting often have a negative impact on health, increasing belly fat and some diseases. It is recommended to participate in at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week.
Regular exercise not only helps prevent diseases related to excess fat but also increases muscle mass, promotes metabolism and improves body composition. Exercise also helps burn stored fat effectively by regulating insulin levels and enhancing fat metabolism.
If you are new to exercise, start with 10 - 15 minutes a day for your favorite activities such as walking around the neighborhood, dancing or yoga. At the same time, increase small amounts of exercise during the day such as taking a staircase instead of an elevator.
Take a break in small steps like achieving your daily walking goals, as this motivates and helps maintain long-term exercise routine. Every 30 - 60 minutes, you should stand up, stretch or walk for a few minutes to reduce long periods of sitting, stimulate blood circulation and muscle activity.
In addition, doing weight training 1-2 times a week focuses on major muscle groups that help reduce visceral fat, improve strength and muscle mass. In addition, 3 aerobic sessions are also very effective in reducing belly fat.
