I lost weight after I stopped exercising

Some people will exercise every day and insist on exercising. Such training day after day, year after year will not only make their body shape more beautiful, but also make their body healthier. However, at some point in time, he suddenly stopped exercising, and during this period, his weight suddenly dropped. So why did he lose weight after stopping exercising? Come and take a look with the editor.

Muscle is denser than fat, so muscle is much heavier than fat. When you stop exercising, you lose muscle, so you feel lighter, but this is actually just the result of muscle loss.

Most people are worried that after stopping training (about 2 weeks), they seem to have returned to their pre-liberation state overnight, especially their circumference and strength have dropped too quickly.

Another small number of people were confused - why do I feel better and even stronger after not training for 2 weeks?

In fact, both situations are possible.

People who feel better after taking a break from training may be:

1. Stopping training for a short period of time does not have any huge impact, especially for ordinary fitness people.

2. When some people face the so-called "plateau period", part of the reason is training fatigue, the body's functions cannot recover well, or it is accompanied by mild inflammation and the edge of injury. A short break from training can actually give the body a good rest, which in turn improves athletic ability.

So why do some people still think that their status has declined?

1. If your training cycle is relatively short, your training time and training experience are insufficient, and the intensity is not very high (to put it bluntly, you are a novice), then it is natural for such a situation to occur.

2. For non-novice people, many people pay too much attention to the benefits of training. For example, muscles will become engorged with blood during training, and this engorgement will definitely not be maintained if they do not exercise for a few days. Therefore, they judge visually that they "can't do it anymore", and coupled with some psychological hints and worries, they think that stopping training will make them lose the state during training. To put it bluntly, they deny themselves in their hearts first.

This is called "de-training syndrome," and its manifestations vary greatly. This definition was originally only used for professional athletes, but for many fitness enthusiasts, this self-psychological suggestion is indeed very similar to "de-training syndrome." There are many other suggestions of "psychological guilt" in sports, such as girls who are losing weight occasionally eating a high-calorie meal.
