Genetic heritage

Before menopause a woman’s body stores fat on the hips, this is the type of figure is called a pear-shaped. It is these stocks thousands of years ago helped cave women to survive in times of drought and famine, besides in such difficult conditions, fat stores allow women to give birth and breastfeed children, and in fact during pregnancy and breast-feeding women spend at least 1,000 calories per day. It turns out that the formation of fat in the hips – the genetic heritage of our ancient ancestors.

“Genetic feature of body fat in the hips in women – one of the main reasons why most of the fat is so difficult to get rid of.”

There are two main types of accumulation of excess weight. For some people, it accumulates in the lower body, creating a so-called pear-shaped, in others the fat is concentrated in the abdominal area, and this figure is called “apple”. By the way, people with pear-shaped body, in this case, have a certain advantage, because, according to studies, the fat on the abdomen and hips, is a health hazard, because abdominal fat clogs in the arteries and into the circulatory system. But there is another side to the coin: It is difficult to get rid of the fat from hips than stomach.

Specificity of exercise with weight

The basis of the training should be exercises that involve the joints, such as squats, lunges, presses and work with dumbbells. These movements are directed by the work of many muscle groups, which perform collectively and hence burn more calories, which in turn leads to a more rapid weight loss. Even if you do not notice until the decrease in the volume of the thighs, the trained muscles in this area will make the hip more formalized and slender, though it will become evident only when the fat go away.

Low-intensity workout burns more calories in a given zone, while the high-intensity exercise enables to burn more calories in the body. Spend 20 minutes daily on a cardio workout, alternating days of high and low intensity. During high-intensity training run, swim, perform interval exercise at the gym, at a lower intensity just walking in the park or go for a swim in the pool.
