Men have to deal with the stress of belly fat and women have to deal with thigh fat throughout their lives, but it turns out that there is a good reason for this.
‘Thigh fat’ is a lifelong concern for women
Thigh fat is something that women worry about at least once as they become more interested in their appearance after puberty. Some people are born with slim thighs, but in general, women tend to have a lot of fat in their thighs. The reason for this is female hormones. Lower body obesity is usually more common in women, and this is related to female hormones. During pregnancy, our body needs to act as an insulator to maintain an appropriate temperature for the fetus to grow well and as a cushioning material to protect the fetus. This is because fat is already accumulated around the lower abdomen and thighs. There is also a body shape issue. If your pelvis or thighs are out of alignment due to an incorrect body shape, fat accumulation may occur due to muscle imbalance.
So what should you do to have slim thighs? Avoid wearing tight-fitting clothing, such as skinny jeans, and take a half-body bath in warm water after going out to help improve blood circulation and prevent waste from accumulating. It is also important to stretch regularly to prevent swelling. It’s good to relax your leg muscles, and it’s also essential to drink enough water and eat vegetables and fruits. Additionally, doing exercises that strengthen your thigh muscles, such as squats, lifting your legs while lying down, or riding a bicycle while lying down, can increase thigh elasticity and make you look slimmer.
The enemy of men, ‘belly fat’
As early as their late 20s or early 30s, men tend to add more holes in their waistband one by one due to their expanding lower abdomen. Generally, when men gain weight, their lower abdomen protrudes. This is because in men, fat distribution is concentrated in the abdomen, and in women, it is distributed in the lower extremities (hips, thighs). Usually, when classifying obesity, it is classified into female-type obesity if there is excess fat on the buttocks and thighs, and male-type obesity if there is excess fat in the abdomen, depending on the distribution of fat by region.
Men and women have different types of belly fat. The true identity of belly fat in men is visceral fat. The belly fat of most women is different from the subcutaneous fat located just beneath the skin. Visceral fat is fat accumulated around the organs in the stomach and cannot be seen or touched with the naked eye. Also, unlike a woman’s subcutaneous fat, which is deformed by weight when lying on its side, visceral fat cannot move in a limited space, so it always maintains a mountain-like shape.
One thing to be careful of is that a man’s belly fat can affect his health after middle age. Representative examples include chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol. These diseases mainly cause arteriosclerosis, which causes heart disease and stroke. Belly fat not only increases the risk of arteriosclerosis, but also causes colon cancer, kidney cancer, and prostate cancer, just like the chronic diseases listed above.
This type of belly fat cannot burn many calories through sit-ups or aerobic exercise alone. You should also adopt a eating habit of choosing brown rice, vegetarian food, and various diet foods.
