Experts have named the most effective workouts for changing body composition

Experts from Shape magazine named the type of training most effective for changing body composition. This is reported on the publication’s website.

Experts advised introducing high-intensity interval training (HIIT) into your schedule. According to them, this type of exercise is the most effective for getting rid of fat and at the same time building muscle mass in the body. Such workouts may include sprints and cycling. For older people, they can also help reduce bone loss.

Shape experts emphasized that changing body composition requires more than just exercise. They recommended increasing your protein intake to build muscle mass and limit age-related muscle loss. In addition, experts warned that it is important to eat a balanced diet consisting of whole foods and healthy fats.

Earlier, fitness expert Natalya Gorbunova answered a question about training until muscles fail. “Training to failure is definitely not suitable for beginners. They are not yet fully familiar with the technique of performing the exercises; the nervous system is not prepared for such loads,” Gorbunova said. She added that in this case, the muscles become overstrained and injuries occur.
