Two common misunderstandings about dynamic bicycles: getting thicker legs? Sweating is equivalent to reducing fat

Dynamic bicycles are one of the most popular sports in gyms!

  The biggest feature of dynamic bicycles is that they make you feel that they can immediately release the energy that you have reserved for a long time, creating a sense of accomplishment. It can not only reduce fat, but also improve cardiopulmonary function.

  But many people fall into some misunderstandings when performing dynamic bicycles! Especially for girls!

  Two wrong concepts for cycling practices

  Misconcept 1: Will riding a dynamic bicycle turn into an elephant leg?

  You can go and see the dynamic bicycle coaches who have many years of training experience. Their firm and slender appearance will tell you that there is no need to worry that dynamic bicycles will turn you into a "big max".

  Many girls are particularly worried Cycling aerobic exercise will make your legs thicker, but in fact, such worries are actually unnecessary. Continuous high-frequency and low-strength riding cannot reach the level of making your legs thicker!

   Not every exercise will make you thicker muscles! Bodybuilder has worked hard to get such muscles!

  1. Why do you think your legs will become thicker? Because you were deceived!

  1. An illusion, just an illusion

  Some people feel their legs are very tired and tight when riding, and think that their legs are "long and thicker". In fact, this is just an illusion, just an illusion

  Many girls think about why their legs are thicker when riding a bike. I tell you, that is just an hind legs exercise. Congestion in the body causes muscle to swell, and it will decrease to its original state the next day. In essence, the muscles are almost not growing (or in other words, they grow very little...) It is recommended that you record your circumference data, and the caliper will not lie!

  2. The intensity is wrong, aerobic exercise will not grow muscles!

  High-intensity and intense anaerobic exercise may make the legs grow muscles, which is the consequence of thick legs. Aerobic exercise consumes sugar, fat, and amino acids in the body, which will only reduce excess fat. The calves of sprinters are very thick. Marathon athletes have very thin calves. Because most of them are aerobic exercise.

  Muscles are not something you want to grow, they can grow if you want to grow (girls are born with less androgenic hormones).9 9% of girls think that they have muscles, but they are actually fat. It takes a year and a half of hard training for boys to see some results when going to the gym!

Pay attention to the time and speed of cycling. Mainly slow-paced aerobic exercise

  To avoid thickening legs, low-intensity cycling (avoid explosive sprinting and riding), which is characterized by low intensity, rhythmic, and long duration. You should also pay attention to time and speed when riding. Generally, the aerobic exercise time takes at least 30 minutes, not more than an hour. The speed cannot be too fast, and the heart rate should be controlled within the heart rate range of aerobic exercise, but it cannot be too slow, otherwise it will not work as an exercise.

  Aerobic heart rate: (220-year Age) × (60%-80%).

  On the contrary: Many people's legs become thinner after persisting in bicycle training for a period of time! Because their overall fat ratio has decreased! The local area will naturally be smaller

  Misconcept 2: Is the more sweat you sweat, the more you can lose weight?

  In fact, what needs to be reduced is fat, not water. Exhaust a large amount of sweat is actually the loss of body water, and does not necessarily mean that the body fat is consumed.

   Sweat is the method of body regulating body temperature! Although fat decomposition will produce some water, it is not much! The main factor that determines how much you sweat is the temperature around you! Standing still while standing still, sweating more, evaporating and sweating more, but it does not mean that you are consuming a lot of calories! The little sweat in fitness in winter does not mean that you are not working!
