This place is too big for women to have children

As people's living standards improve, the obesity rate among women of childbearing age is also increasing year by year. So does obesity have any impact on fertility?

First of all, in order to measure whether a person's weight is overweight, we need to introduce a term: BMI index, which is body mass index. The BMI index is easy to calculate, which is a person's weight (kg) divided by the square of their height (m). That is, BMI index = weight (kg) ÷ height2. The BMI index of Chinese adults is normal between 18.5-23.9, below 18.5 is underweight, 24-27.9 is overweight, and above 28 is obese.

So, let’s summarize the impact of female obesity on fertility.

1. Obesity is not conducive to ovulation. Foreign researchers studied 1,880 infertile women and 4,023 controls and found that when BMI is greater than 27, the chance of infertility due to anovulation is three times higher.

2. Obesity will have an adverse effect on the outcome of ovulation induction. A study of 270 patients with PCOS who underwent ovulation induction found that nearly 80% of patients with a BMI of 18-24 ovulated, while only 12% of patients with a BMI > 35 ovulated. And overweight women may need more hormones.

3. Obesity can increase the risk of miscarriage.

4. Long-term obesity in women will have adverse effects on the fetus, including gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, and macrosomia.

It seems that being overweight for women is not only detrimental to fertility, but also has a negative impact on the next generation. So, my female friends, please control your weight.

Recommended methods for women to lose weight

First of all, don’t worry that exercise will turn you into a “muscular woman”

For girls, most of them do fitness exercises for the purpose of body shaping and fat loss. They are always worried about building muscles or losing the feminine "flavor". In fact, you know that it is not easy for boys to build muscles. They have to eat a week's worth of food in a day and keep conquering heavier weights. What's more, due to the hormone levels in the body, it is even more difficult for girls to build muscles. So please stop worrying and take a look at the gym to see if there are any girls like "muscle men"? ! Look at many supermodels and celebrities who all love fitness and have great body lines. For example, Cindy Crawford often uses equipment and likes to hit sandbags. Can you say that her muscle lines are not beautiful? Health and Beauty also revealed that Monroe also "lifted weights" at home. Although women of that era were advised not to lift more than a cup of coffee, Monroe became a "heartthrob."

Strength training + aerobic exercise

Theoretically speaking, for strength training, each set can be more than 15 times and up to 50 or 60 times. It is recommended to do about 25 times, and then adjust according to personal circumstances. You also need to strengthen aerobic training. The best aerobic training for fat loss is long-term moderate-intensity running with a heart rate of around 140. Control calories in your diet, eat small meals frequently, and maintain a balanced diet. Remember that only by losing fat can you see good lines, and only when you have a certain foundation can you see a perfect body after losing fat. Otherwise, if you don’t have any muscles, what will be left after the fat is gone? Skin and bones? ? !

The simplest and most effective plan is 3 days a week, or 6 days a week, 3 days × 2 cycles, that is, one day each for chest, back, and legs, chest plus biceps, back and triceps, and on the day of leg training, the quads, hamstrings, and calves are trained, but the abdomen and shoulders are not trained. The abdomen can be trained 3 to 4 times a week, and 4 to 8 sets can be added after each training, or 4 sets × 2 to 3 movements. You can also use one day alone to strengthen abdominal muscle training and then combine it with aerobic exercise. For shoulders, you can do fewer chest presses on the day of chest press, and add 3 sets of incline presses and 3 sets of push-ups. Wait until the advanced stage to train shoulders, biceps, and triceps separately, which will add 3 more days, making it exactly 6 days.

There are many benefits to the 3-day plan. If you train for 6 days, you can complete two cycles. If you train for 4 days, you can use the extra day to train your key points and major contradictions. If you train for 5 days, you can use the missing day to abandon your relatively best part or temporarily wait for other parts. In short, you should first train your weakest points, the parts that need the most improvement, and the major contradictions that need to be strengthened.

If you want to lose fat quickly, please stick to aerobic training at least 3 to 4 times a week. You can do it about 30 to 40 minutes after each machine training, or you can run for 30-60 minutes on an empty stomach in the morning, or you can arrange an aerobic day and run to your heart's content. Pay attention to controlling calories in your diet.
