Introduction: In this era of efficiency, we are always told to go fast, to be faster. However, Japanese writer Hisako Umekata achieved her health and weight management goals in a counterintuitive way – ultra-jogging.Hitoko Umekata began trying ultra-jogging at the age of 50, when she was severely overweight and in poor health. However, by sticking to the ultra-jogging workout, she not only managed to lose excess weight, but also regained her confidence and vitality. Today, Hisako Umekata has become a face for ultra-jogging, and her story has inspired countless people to join the ultra-jogging family.
Ultra-jogging, this seemingly contradictory way of running, not only allowed her to successfully lose weight, but also allowed her to find joy and balance in running. So, what is it about ultra-jogging that allows an overweight person to achieve such an elegant metamorphosis?
1.Ultra jogging: Easy to get started and enjoy the sport
Ultra jogging, as the name suggests, is a type of running that takes place at an extremely slow pace. This style of running allows runners to run for long periods of time without feeling tired and out of breath. It was through ultra-jogging that Hitoko Umekata gradually lost weight and regained her health. The easy introduction to ultra-jogging allows more people to enjoy the joy of running instead of being intimidated by the pain of running.
2.Ultra jogging: Efficient fat burning, healthy weight loss
Many people believe that only fast running can burn fat. However, studies have shown that ultra-jogging is actually a more efficient way to burn fat. Because ultra-jogging allows the body to continue to burn fat under low-intensity exercise, so as to achieve the effect of fat burning. Hisahiko Umekata not only lost weight through ultra-jogging, but more importantly, she achieved healthy weight loss in this way.
3.Ultra jogging: suitable for beginners and those who are overweight
For first-time runners and overweight individuals, running fast can put too much strain on the knees and ankles, which can lead to sports injuries. Ultra-jogging, on the other hand, can reduce sports injuries while allowing beginners and overweight people to gradually adapt to running, so as to achieve the goal of healthy weight loss. The story of Hitoko Umekata is the best proof of this.
4.Ultra jogging training recommendations
How to do ultra-jogging training scientifically and effectively? Here are some suggestions:
Choose the right venue: A park, playground, or quiet street are all good options. Make sure the ground is flat so you don't sprain your ankles.
Wear comfortable shoes: A well-fitting and well-supported pair of running shoes is crucial. It protects your feet from injury and improves running comfort.
Adjust your breathing: Maintain a steady breathing rhythm, inhale deeply as you inhale, and exhale slowly as you exhale. This helps improve oxygen utilization and reduce breathlessness.
Control your heart rate: When ultra-jogging, your heart rate should be between 60% and 70% of your maximum heart rate. The maximum heart rate can be estimated by the formula "220 - age". For example, a 30-year-old person with a maximum heart rate of 190 (220-30) should maintain a heart rate between 114-133 when ultra-jogging. Speed control: The speed of ultra-jogging is about 5 6 kilometers per hour, which is about the same as walking, or slightly faster, in order to keep the heart rate in the 60 70 range of the maximum heart rate, so as to avoid the burden on the heart and help burn fat.
Mind Building: Ultra-jogging is a great way to maintain a positive attitude towards exercise without worrying about frequency, speed, or mileage. You can start by watching TV at home and then gradually switch to running outdoors with friends. Not being out of breath or tired will make it easier for you to stick with it and quickly establish a habit of exercising. Perseverance: Any workout requires consistency to see results. Do ultra-jogging workouts at least 3 times a week for 20-30 minutes each time.
