FAQ
What happens if I don’t get enough sleep?
Your brain won't receive enough sleep if it doesn't get the signals it needs to regulate hormones, chemicals that regulate appetite and metabolism. As a result, your body may become more hungry and can gain weight. Overeating can also be caused by a lack of sleep.
Is it possible to gain weight by exercising?
Not at all. In fact, exercise helps you to maintain your current weight. When you work out regularly, you'll build muscles and increase your metabolism, helping you burn more calories throughout the day. This means your body will not store as much fat.
What Are Cardio Exercises?
Cardiovascular activities are any exercise that makes your heart work harder than normal. Swimming, cycling, rowing, and jogging are all examples. These activities are great for burning fat and increasing metabolism. They also strengthen your heart and lungs, which makes them great ways to stay fit.
Can I have alcohol at work?
Alcohol has calories, so it's not recommended to consume large amounts while working out. Moderate alcohol consumption (one drink per week) can help increase endurance during training. It may also be beneficial in reducing fatigue and muscle aches that can result from vigorous exercise.
Do I need to warm up before exercising?
Warming up prior to an activity helps reduce muscle soreness. It also improves performance. There are many methods you can use to warm up, including running, jumping rope and stretching. Start slowly and gradually increase your pace and intensity.
Do I need food before I exercise?
No. It doesn't matter what you eat before going to the gym. But if you're feeling hungry after exercising, you may be tempted to snack on light foods like yogurt or fruit.
