Is increasing the lower body muscles the only way to counteract ageing? Experts say this

☑ Increase the importance of muscles

For women in the second half of the 30s to 40s, to "reverse aging and fight aging", you must "strengthen the lower body muscles". This is the conclusion I got as a private fitness coach who helped many women sculpt their bodies.

Whether men and women reach the age of 40, they will clearly feel their changes in their bodies. People of this age have only three major problems:

"It's getting more and more difficult to lose weight."

"The body is distorted and the skin loses elasticity."

"I am always drowsy, which is difficult to eliminate fatigue."

If you want to resist physical decline and have a youthful body, the most effective way is to "strengthen the lower body muscles."

What is the relationship between anti-aging and muscle? Why the lower body? This idea certainly has some roots. First, let’s think about why tying muscles can resist aging.

Generally speaking, to revitalize the brain, we need to do brain training. But in fact, the most effective way to activate the brain is movement. According to the latest brain science research, exercise and using muscles can increase neurogenesis factors in the brain by 35%.

From the perspective of "slimming", fat is the source of heat in the body, and muscles are the most effective in consuming fat. By increasing muscle, you can consume more heat in your daily life and effectively burn fat. If the muscle mass is insufficient, even if the amount of food intake is not particularly large, the heat will often not be consumed smoothly and will be stored into fat. It is often said that as you grow older, you are more and more likely to gain weight; this is because the muscle mass is reduced and the body's "fuel consumption" also decreases, and it has nothing to do with age. As long as you exercise more and strengthen your muscles, you can restore your body to a young age and digest it no matter how much you eat.

Increased muscle mass, and it is also less likely to feel tired. After climbing the stairs, people who feel slim in their hearts will become much easier after plucking their muscles. People who are tired after walking for a few steps will also greatly reduce the fatigue in life.

☑ The key to young people is the advantage of using more muscles by secreting large amounts of growth hormones

, including the secretion of growth hormones, which play an important role in "reverse age and rejuvenation".

Skin moisturizing requires the operation of growth hormone. From the perspective of professional sports physiology, the skin is an excretion organ and a body temperature regulating organ, which discharges old waste materials such as sweat and sebum from the pores, keeps the body in a warm state, and avoids skin problems.

Does inputting nourishment from pores have a beauty effect? From the perspective of skin science, or perhaps it is somewhat effective. But from the perspective of the mechanism of body function, this behavior is like entering nutrients from the anus to maintain kidney health.

Don't you think there is something weird?

Enter protein and other nutrients from our diet every day to help us maintain skin elasticity and radiance. As long as you have a balanced diet and exercise more, you can increase the secretion of growth hormones, so that your skin can return to the clear, tender and elastic and full of youthful ages.

I hope everyone understands that spending a lot of money to buy cosmetics and care products, but ignoring the body mechanism, this is useless.

Growth hormones also promote fat enhancement, lower body fat, promote protein enhancement, anti-nails, and maintain immune function. There will be more detailed explanations on this point later.

In short, activating muscles to promote growth hormone secretion also helps with beauty and nourishment.

☑ Starting from exercising the lower body muscles

Recently, more and more experts have pointed out that exercising the muscles is very important for women's health and beauty, and I think this is a good phenomenon. Among the muscles in the whole body, the lower body muscles are particularly important. I also pay special attention to the training plan of lower body muscles for students. What this book needs to emphasize from beginning to end is the importance of strengthening the lower body muscles.

Why is the lower body? There are three reasons.

First, there is a saying: "Aging starts from the waist and legs." The body begins to degenerate from the lower body muscles. If the muscles are reduced, it is easy to feel tired, and then fall into a vicious cycle of "reducing activity by fatigue by ↓ reducing heat consumption by ↓ prone to fat". In order to make your body full of vitality, the most important thing to exercise is the lower body muscles.

Secondly, the big muscles in the body are concentrated in the lower body. As long as you exercise your large muscles, you can consume heat. In a different sentence, increasing the amount of muscle in the lower body can increase the weight and effectively burn fat, making people lose weight.

Third, the lower body is called "second heart". When blood is discharged from the heart, the blood at the tip of the foot must be relied on the contraction and relief of the lower body muscles. Many women have problems such as floating legs, thick legs, and leg pain. As long as they pluck the lower body muscles and promote blood circulation, they can improve the above problems.
