Maybe as a bodybuilder, I must want to refute this sentence, but from which aspect should I refute it?
In fact, what Bian Xiao wants to say is that if the purpose of fitness is to gain muscle and practice muscle, if you don't take part in the competition or be a fitness coach, it's not worth it at all, but it's not useless!
Why do I say fitness is not worth it?
1, muscle training is a waste of time. Some people think that muscle training is not bodybuilding, but the purpose of muscle training is to make muscles stronger, and bodybuilding is the same. So, in a sense, building muscles is bodybuilding. However, if you don't gain muscle for the purpose of bodybuilding, then this process is a waste of time.
In the process of gaining muscle, it is more difficult than losing fat and takes more time. Although most people know that each exercise only takes 60-90 minutes, in fact, you will find that you will spend more than 2 hours each time in the process of muscle training. This is only for amateur fitness enthusiasts, and some professional fitness enthusiasts, each training time is at least 3 hours.
During muscle training, you also need to arrange a fitness plan, that is to say, you need to have certain regularity, otherwise it will affect the effect of muscle training. You will find that after practicing for a week, there is always not enough time, so you should pay more time to improve the muscle gain effect. In other words, in the process of gaining muscle, you don't have enough time and are completely influenced by it? Restrictions? Yes
2. Muscle gain requires money to exercise. Although it can be done by hand, if you want to improve the efficiency of muscle gain, then you must take enough nutrition to effectively improve the speed of muscle gain. Even excluding the cost of going to the gym, protein usually needs a lot of money.
Generally speaking, we all know that protein excess is needed to gain muscle, so as to promote muscle gain efficiency. According to the standard calculation, you should consume 1.5-2g protein per kilogram of body weight. Simply calculate with eggs, you need 15-20 eggs a day to improve the efficiency of muscle gain. Although one day is not expensive, it is only 7-8 yuan, but you need to spend 2 10-240 yuan a month, and 2525-2880 yuan a year. Although this figure is relatively small, many people are moonlight people now, and they can't save thousands of dollars a year.
If you usually buy some fitness supplements, you will have to spend more money.
3. Muscular development is not in line with aesthetics, and girls will resent the aesthetics of Asians, especially those in Europe and America, especially girls. If a boy's muscles are strong, then they will feel sick. And some girls will think, why are you practicing muscles? If you don't take part in the competition and become a fitness instructor, you won't make money and waste money. What's the point? I have to say that this is the reality, and I can't say that girls are too materialistic.
Therefore, boys who are muscular and even have fitness habits will be rejected by girls.
4. Fitness doesn't necessarily make you healthier. Sticking to fitness will definitely make you healthy? In fact, this is not correct and cannot be very accurate. Although, after our sports performance ability becomes stronger, our physical health level will also improve. However, if you blindly pursue a big muscular figure, it is not good for your health.
While pursuing big muscles, it also means that you may need ultra-high intensity training or even excessive fitness. Some people directly use drugs (steroids) to gain muscle, and it is these behaviors that affect their health.
Then the problem comes. We don't take part in bodybuilding competitions or be coaches. What is the use of fitness? In fact, there are many benefits brought by fitness, such as losing weight, making the body healthier, increasing the body's immunity, relieving stress, making the mood happy and improving the quality of sleep.
Therefore, as an ordinary person, if you don't pursue bodybuilding competition and engage in the fitness industry, you can take fitness as a hobby, and there is no need to persistently pursue strong muscles. I don't care what others say, just treat it with a normal heart.
