Maybe you run 30 to 40 kilometers a week, but for dinner you eat whatever you can get your hands on. You can maintain a regular eating regime from Monday to Friday, but when the weekend comes you give up! Have dinners out with friends, don't skimp on chips or soda because you know you're working out hard and the activity keeps you in shape.
Eating whatever you like without consequences on your body seems like a distant dream, especially if you are convinced that you burn calories in the gym or physical activities. But what happens to you if you exercise a lot but don't eat healthy!
"Skinny fat" is the term that defines such a phenomenon in social networks, which is otherwise explained as a body that has a lot of fat, but little muscle. Accumulating fat from eating unprocessed, high-sugar or high-salt foods, regardless of whether you are in good shape, can lead to the same health risks as obese people.
Exercise doesn't completely reverse the effects of a bad diet, experts say. According to them, there is also an increased chance of premature death if you exercise but neglect healthy eating. In one of the latest studies on the effects of physical activity and diet quality, researchers found that those who exercised regularly but ate whatever they wanted were at greater risk of mortality compared to people who exercised but also ate healthily.
Nëse doni të humbi peshë, sekreti qëndron tek djegia e më shumë kalorive se ato që merrni përmes ushqimit. Ngrënia e ushqimeve me yndyrë dhe shumë kalori e bën këtë sfidë të pamundur. Nëse po digjini shumë kalori, por ushqimet që hani janë plot yndyrë dhe sheqer, atëherë ju duhet të stërviteni akoma më shumë se një person që mban një regjim ushqimor të rregullt.
Ushqimet e përpunuara, pijet me gaz dhe të ëmblat kanë pak ose aspak lëndë ushqyese. Me mungesën e vitaminave, proteinave dhe fibrave për t'ju ngopur, ju do e keni vështirë të mendoni për palestrën kur jeni vazhdimisht të uritur. “Njerëzit që nuk mbajnë një dietë të shëndetshme janë gjithë kohës të uritur, pa humor dhe pa motivim për ushtrime në natyrë apo palestër,” thotë dieotologia Grace Derocha.
Gabimet që bëni me ushtrimet fizike
Physical activity doesn't matter in the long run if you don't pay attention to the foods you eat. People who do vigorous exercise burn more calories than those who do cardio. According to dietitian Derocha, consumption of foods without value for the body and organism make it more difficult to build muscle mass.
Balance is the key to success
Being healthy doesn't mean giving up all the foods you love. Instead of feeling guilty about junk food, sweets, chips or fizzy drinks, choose foods with fiber, omega-3s or carbohydrates, while not cutting back on physical activity.
