[헬스픽] A honey tip to lose arm fat the healthy way!

In the cold season, the clothes were much thicker. The outerwear looks stuffy, but the particularly narrow forearms attract attention. Fitness instructor Caroline Grainger says that women tend to accumulate fat more easily in their arms than men, saying, “The arms are a more fat-prone area for women.” How to lose arm fat that doesn’t come off easily?

◆ Reduce calories and increase activity

Basically, to lose weight, you need to eat fewer calories than your body burns. Reduce your calorie intake by choosing fruit over sweets and tea over soda. Also keep in mind that salty eating habits increase bloating in the body.

◆ Stop delicious refined sugar!

Sweet, refined sugar is delicious to the mouth, but fatal to the body. Increases blood sugar and insulin resistance, leading to diabetes and adult disease. Reduce your sugar intake by using commercially available sugar substitutes such as stevia and allulose.

◆ Dietary fiber intake is ↑

Dietary fiber not only promotes intestinal activity to reduce fat accumulation, but also helps reduce appetite by maintaining a feeling of satiety for a long time. Plan your diet around seasonal vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans.

◆ Aerobic + strength training is essential

I think aerobic exercise is enough to shed fat, but strength training should be combined to keep your arms toned and slim. Lose fat with aerobic exercise and build muscle with strength training. The biceps, triceps and deltoids of the shoulders are mainly exercised, and swimming, pull-ups and push-ups are also effective.

◆ Sleep is also important

Lack of sleep tends to secrete cortisol, an appetite hormone, and increase calorie intake. Several overseas studies have revealed that people who slept less than 7 hours were more likely to be obese. Furthermore, the short sleep duration increases the appetite for salt and sugar and induces the accumulation of cellulite.
