Fitness knowledge: The shape of muscles is born!

Some people say: You can shape your muscles through any movement or posture, so that specific muscles are more tangible!

In fact, this concept has been mentioned in the basic knowledge parts.

1. The muscles cannot be "shape" or "plasticized", and the shape of the muscles is determined by genetics.

You can make the muscles "larger" or "smaller". But you can't control their shape.

2. By the way, you can make certain muscles in the body This can be done by getting bigger and other muscles become smaller, so you can reshape your body shape. But you can't change the shape of individual muscles.

The shaping we usually call shaping is to achieve the goal by changing the size of the muscles. For example, the deltoid muscle is originally a peach-shaped similar to a triangle, and you can't train it to a square shape.

Many newspapers, magazines, books or TV channels like to use the tempting word "fixed shape": "There is no need to make the muscle bigger , you can make your muscles look better”

And such exercise content is mostly "light weight x high repetitions".

But this is an unrealistic method. If the weight you use is not challenging, your muscles will not grow; if your muscles do not grow, it will not look better than the current situation, nor will it achieve the effect of shaping.

Even if you eliminate the fat on the surface of the muscles, no matter whether you have too much fat, if your muscles are The flesh tissue has not been properly trained, and the muscles will not look good or be healthy.

In addition, you must know that muscles are difficult to grow. If you want to squat with bare hands to train your buttocks, you can grow muscles by touching a few dumbbells. This is unrealistic!

If you want to grow muscles, you need a certain amount of strength and weight to stimulate, and you also need sufficient nutrition to ensure muscle growth
