What will happen to the body after the suspension of exercise?

Release time:

2024-06-20

When we promise ourselves again and again: "This time we will devote ourselves to training", it may be another prophecy that cannot be persisted for a long time. Of course, this is normal. Almost every fitness enthusiast has encountered this situation. After weighing the trade-offs, they make the decision to temporarily disconnect the training plan. So, today we're going to explore what happens to your body over the next time you're out of training?

Within 10 days: Your brain has begun to change.

For years, researchers have been exploring the benefits of exercise on the brain, including a 2013 survey report that it is very likely that exercise can help offset the memory loss caused by aging. And now, research in the Journal of Neuroscience on "aging" has found that even a short vacation from your workouts can lead to changes in your brain's memory.

After 14 days (2 weeks): Your endurance will drop and your body's main strong muscles will begin to change.

After just 14 days, you will find that some activities of climbing stairs or playing football are no longer as easy as before. Why does this happen? In fact, the most important thing is that your oxygen intake has decreased. For example, when you jump rope and sweat, your body's oxygen intake peaks, and your body has enough oxygen for you to use. And this high oxygen uptake body characteristics will be in the two weeks after stopping exercise, oxygen uptake decreased by 10% of the original. After four weeks, your VO2 max will drop by about 15%, and after three months, it can drop to about 20%, and this is a conservative estimate.

Of course, keeping exercise simple can help. A study in 2009 found that in an experiment with a group of canoeists, the average maximum oxygen uptake of male canoeists who stopped training for 5 weeks decreased by 11.3 percent, while that of another group of lightly trained canoeists only decreased by 5.6 percent.

Within 28 days (4 weeks): Your strength will begin to decline.

Some people will notice that within two weeks of their stopping training, strength has begun to decline, and after four weeks can form a large gap with people who continue to train. Studies have pointed out that the rate of decline in strength is often slower than the rate of decline in endurance. 11 years well-known sports research magazine has been found: when a group of men stop doing resistance training, 24 weeks later, they still have a small amount of high-level strength.

Within 56 days (8 weeks): You may start to gain weight.

Dr. Hameed calculated that after eight weeks, we will easily notice changes in our body shape in the mirror, and even elite athletes will not be immune to rebound. In 2012, a study in the leading sports journal found that swimmers who stopped training for 5 weeks increased their body fat levels by an average of 12% and saw significant increases in weight and waist circumference. (We should also point out that these athletes are not completely relaxed, they still do some light and moderate exercise in due course. A 2016 study also found that when elite taekwondo athletes stopped training for eight weeks, their body fat increased significantly and their muscle mass decreased.

In fact, that is to say, the benefits you have earned from long-term exercise will slowly disappear two weeks after you stop exercising. Okay! Cheek up! Keep fighting!
