Can long-distance running run rough legs? If you choose running to help you exercise or lose weight, you may consider this problem. Some people say that running for a long time may actually make your legs thicker, so many people dare not run. Running is a very beneficial aerobic exercise for weight loss, but most people will consider how to lose weight quickly and improve the efficiency of weight loss.
If you choose long-distance running, will you run rough legs?
Under normal circumstances, people who have been engaged in running for a long time will not cause their legs to be long and thick. Instead, the subcutaneous fat layer will become less and less, and the subcutaneous muscle layer will become more and more developed. Therefore, visually, people will feel that although their legs are thicker, their weight is actually relatively reduced. Moreover, running for a long time will be of great help and benefit to the body. For example, running for a long time will improve the heart and lung function of the body, strengthen the oxygen carrying capacity of the lungs and the blood supply function of the heart, and also improve the endurance and physical fitness of the body. Running is a very healthy aerobic exercise, which can eliminate the extra fat under the skin. Long term running will make the muscles of the lower limbs more developed, increase the resting metabolic rate of the body, and also help to lose weight.
As long as the running method is correct, not only will the legs not be thick, but also the legs will become more beautiful. There are three main reasons why some people think that the lower leg will become thicker after running, except for congenital factors: first, the muscle will be congested after exercise. After any exercise, there will be short-term muscle congestion (a large amount of blood will flow to the target muscle after the resistance training of the target muscle with considerable intensity). The circumference is enlarged. This situation usually recovers slowly after rest. 2、 The exercise time is not enough. Unlike sprinters who need developed thigh muscles to provide kinetic energy to complete explosive sprint, long-distance runners have thin and slender legs. The reason is that they have been trained in endurance for a long time, and their bodies must bear the stimulation of greater endurance. Therefore, endurance is growing. The endurance muscles in the human body are relatively small and not strong. Therefore, the legs of long-distance runners are relatively slender. In other words, a reasonable combination of running speed and duration during running is the key to training leg muscles. If you want to have more slender legs, you should do more endurance long-distance running, jogging, or fast walking. It is characterized by slow running speed, which means that the exercise intensity is low and rhythmic, and it lasts for at least 30 minutes.
As for the question of whether long-distance running can run thick legs, the above contents have been fully explained. In fact, as long as the method is correct, even if you run every day and the running time is not short, you will not have thick legs. Warm up and stretching exercises should be done before and after running, which can effectively prevent the legs from getting thicker.
