What are the best aerobic exercises for weight loss

In fact, there is no universal "best weight loss" aerobic exercise. The core of fat loss effect is never the type of exercise, but the total consumption that you can persist for a long time, and whether it can adapt to your physical condition.

There is quite a quarrel on the Internet about this. One group insists on the "fat-burning heart rate", saying that the heart rate must be raised to 60%-70% of the maximum heart rate for more than 30 minutes to maximize the proportion of fat energy supply. According to this standard, jogging, continuous swimming, medium-intensity aerobics, and skipping are indeed ranked first. In the front, the caloric consumption per unit time can reach 400-600 kcal per hour. For people with a good foundation of exercise and no joint problems, it saves time and is highly efficient. Many 996 colleagues around me cannot squeeze out time. I do 20 minutes of intermittent aerobics at home after get off work every day. Combined with a controlled diet, I can lose more than ten kilograms in two months.

But the other side’s argument is not unreasonable. They say that there is no need to worry about the fat-burning ratio, as long as the total consumption is enough. Even if your heart rate is not in the so-called fat-burning zone, walking an extra two kilometers a day and taking a few fewer elevators will not necessarily save you less energy than doing high-intensity aerobics for half an hour, and you will not be easily injured. I met a 170-pound friend who lost weight before. He started dancing Pamela with a blogger and developed effusion in his knees within a week. Later, he switched to brisk walking for 40 minutes after meals every day, and occasionally rode a shared bicycle for half an hour on weekends. He did not deliberately diet. He lost 11 kilograms in the first month. In half a year, he steadily lost 30 kilograms without rebounding.

In fact, choosing aerobic weight loss is really like choosing shoes that fit your feet. If you wear running shoes that are comfortable for others, you will squeeze your feet and feel like giving up after taking two steps. No matter how efficient you are, it is useless. If you have a large body weight and bad joints, there is really no need to force yourself into high-intensity activities. Elliptical machines, incline walking, or even slower square dancing will have good results as long as you persist every day.

Oh, by the way, don’t be fooled by the saying “more sweat means more fat burning”. You can sweat all over in summer even if you don’t move. You can’t say you can lose weight just by sitting, right? Also, nothing aerobic can stop you from showing off with a cup of full-sugar milk tea and fried chicken after exercise. If you really want to lose weight, control your diet a little and choose exercises that you can do. It is more reliable than the "best exercise for weight loss".
