Since the summers are approaching and those Sweaty days are here and the feeling of completely drenched in sweat gives us psychologically another kg of weight loss. Now when it comes to a scientific practice of weight loss, the first step always comes is Analysing your Body Composition. These days every gym whether an International Gym or an International Standard gym would have this machine with them. A Body Composition machine or BCA machine typically gives a picture of body’s Lean Muscle Mass, Fat Percentage, Water Percentage, Segmental Body Fat, Metabolism(BMR), Body Mass Index(BMI) and explains you the targeted loss/gain required. So don’t forget to check if it is Fat loss or simply water loss while sweating.
So to every individual who would be essentially looking forward for results, must keep a track record of these in order to optimize results. Meanwhile we speak about Running for Weight Loss, essentially all what feels is not good, therefore too much of Cardio isn’t a good idea at all! According to ACSM’s(American College of Sports Medicine) Guidelines:
Cardiorespiratory Exercise
According to the ACSM, you should perform a minimum of 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity cardiorespiratory exercise. This recommendation can be met by completing 30 to 60 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise on approximately five days per week. As an alternative, you can perform 20 to 60 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise on approximately three days per week. The ACSM stresses that the required daily amount can be broken up throughout the day.
Resistance Exercise
Resistance training for each major muscle group should be done two to three days per week with a variety of exercises and equipment. Performing two to four sets of each exercise, with eight to 12 repetitions per set in order, will improve your muscular strength and power. The ACSM suggests a break of at least 48 hours between resistance training sessions to give the muscles time to recover.
