How to lose weight by jogging? Is it good for health and figure!
My private observations prove that if you want to lose weight you should run. So, gathering information from different forums, I would like to present such review.
With a help of jogging it is possible not only to lose weight. Regular jogging promotes the recovery of cardiovascular system, strengthening of immunity and stress reduction. It is managed to run away from your problems.
Jogging is a perfect exercise stress, which is foreseen by the nature (all our ancestors sometimes run away from dinosaur, sometimes after the mammoth).
jogging and weight lossIn science there is a term “runner’s high” – a pleasant state of happiness which is known for all runners (it is concerned with a secretion of lactic acid in muscles and oxygen satiation of all cells).
But here we are going to speak only about jogging in respect of grow thin.
Just to lose weight, experts advice to alternate fast long-distance race with slow short-distance race. In such a way it would be difficult for organism to get accustomed to single-type loads and as a result it will need to burn much more calories.
It is possible to use «ragged tempo», which consists in sharp speeding (as a rule 1-2 minutes) and then lowering the rate of running practically to «jogging». During one exercise may be 2 or more accelerations.
A half marathon programme with training at the speed in combination with long-distance race is a perfect way to lose weight. By the way, jogging during more than an hour and a half makes organism to use saved fat supply by way of energy source!
