To be healthy and healthy, reducing fat is not as good as gaining muscle

Muscle reduction and obesity can increase the risk of death.

According to the survey, between 40∼ between 80 years old, the muscle mass in men will decrease by 10.8%, and the female will decrease by 6.4%, and the male internal fat will increase by 42.9%, and the female will increase by 65.3%. The medical magazine Lancet conducted a massive survey of 4 million people, and the results showed that excessive obesity would increase the mortality rate by 171%.

The following picture is a diagram of muscle mass and fat mass.

The

diagram shows that the lowest mortality rate is the area with high muscle mass and low fat mass (D). The highest mortality rate is the area with less muscle mass and more fat mass (A).

From this we can see that if you want to be healthy and grow stronger, you must undergo strength training to increase muscle mass; at the same time, you must also reduce weight to reduce fat mass.

However, it is very difficult to exercise muscle strength and reduce the importance of double-tubes. People who do not have sports habits or those with high aging may decide to give up as soon as they hear it.

At this time, you can think about which type of mortality rate is lower if both muscle and fat are more and those with less muscle and fat?

The UK conducted a 400,000 survey and the results showed that those with lower mortality rates were those with high muscle and fat. In other words, it is better to do muscle strength training than to reduce weight.

If you want to be healthy and healthy, you should try to strengthen your muscles first than reducing fat!
