One of the most common naggings I hear since I was a child is ‘don’t eat junk food’. If you eat only one type of food that fits your mouth, your body is more likely to grow disproportionately. This is because you need to eat a well-balanced diet to get a balanced intake of nutrients.
Just as unbalanced diet causes nutrient imbalance, unbalanced exercise also causes imbalanced physical development. ‘Exercise eating’ is not only inefficient in consuming calories, but also makes it difficult to supply oxygen to the blood.
Now that interest in health PT and Pilates is growing, what kind of exercise bias are modern people showing? The famous exercise YouTube channel ‘All Blanc’ explained the problem of eating out and how to solve it.
◆ Men focus on upper body exercise and women focus on lower body exercise
It was found that men put more effort into building upper body muscles such as shoulder, arm, and chest muscles. As a result of analyzing viewers by YouTube video on the All Blanc channel, it was found that male viewers mostly watched the six pack and those that developed back muscles.
Conversely, it was found that women watched lower body exercise more intensively. Women mostly watched the leg line needed to create slim legs or exercise that gave them a ‘hip up’.
Just as the preferred exercise area was different by gender, the preferred area was also different by age. The relatively young age group in their 20s and 30s preferred high-intensity strength training and aerobic exercise. On the other hand, those in their 40s or older preferred exercise that was enough to maintain their stamina without straining their joints.
◆ Exercise that can be used throughout the body
I understand the psychology of people who want to develop a specific part, but full-body exercise is necessary for more balanced physical development. There are a total of 48 exercises for 24 minutes, suggested by CEO Joo-Yeop Yeo. The three types of actions are analyzed as follows.
1. ‘Full body exercise’ effective for calorie burning
The most effective part of full-body exercise is calorie consumption. This is because you use your body to burn fat. In the middle of high-intensity strength training, if you add a whole-body exercise that gently shakes your body, you can see a good effect not only in increasing muscle mass but also in dieting.
2. ‘Lower body exercise’ with various postures added
The best thing regarding lower body exercise is squats. At this time, if you perform a ‘pull-down’ movement that gathers the back muscles to the center at the same time as the squat, the effect of the exercise can be seen even more. In addition, if you perform the burpee test along with the squat, you can see the effect of burning calories and improving muscle strength at the same time.
3. Exercise using gravity at various angles
Since our body is fundamentally affected by gravity, it is good to exercise to develop muscles by increasing the strength to resist it. A typical example is an abdominal exercise in which the legs are raised slowly while lying down.
