Why do yoga practitioners gain weight first and then lose weight

For those who want to lose weight and pursue perfect physical and mental health, yoga fitness is a great aerobic exercise for weight loss. But some friends who have undergone a period of training have found that their weight loss has not eased, but has even worsened. Oh my god. What exactly is the reason for this? This issue must be a concern for many friends. Let's take a look at the detailed introduction of this issue in the article together.

First of all, what you are lifting is not body fat, but net weight. During fitness exercises, body fat will accelerate and muscles will also grow. Muscles of the same volume have much higher mass compared to human fat. Secondly, the absorption capacity has increased. Yoga fitness can adjust the body's condition to achieve balance, so after practicing for a period of time, people's appetite will be stronger and their basal metabolism will also increase. The gastrointestinal system has undergone recuperation, and its absorption capacity is stronger than before. Perhaps you have the same appetite as before, but due to improved absorption, you have digested and absorbed a large amount of nutrients, which is why you have gained weight. Thirdly, the storage of glycogen and water. During the entire process of fitness exercise, the human body consumes a lot of muscle glycogen and liver glycogen. After exercise, the human body automatically stores a large amount of glycogen to achieve balance. During the entire process of supplementing with saccharin, a significant amount of water will be stored according to the 1:3 ratio of saccharin to water, which will make you feel "fat".

There is no need to rely on feudal superstitions about weight loss, shaping is the key. There is no need to view relying on yoga for weight loss as a phased overall goal, but rather as a habit that can provide you with a healthier lifestyle. If you continue, you will definitely achieve the actual effect you want.

Training today's yoga poses together can help relieve your work stress, eliminate edema, promote stronger laxity in the body, and make muscle lines smoother.
