Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep & Positivity (4)

Exercise (Part-II)
Obesity Epidemic is currently an urgent global issue.

The healthiest ways to fight against the obesity by ourselves are nothing else but Physical Exercises and Diet Control.

Today, I don't want to have too much theoretical discussion but a practical method to share with you, especially for those who have a problem with their BMI or waist.

What I'm going to introduce later is what we called "Slow Training" and "Slow Jogging".


Slow Training is a kind of exercise that trains your muscles by your own without any equipments, it's a safe, easy exercise, furthermore it only takes for 5 minutes to complete a whole set of workout.

The link below is the explanation and guide of the Slow Training (Written in Chinese, in order to allow all other classmates understanding it):

While for Slow Jogging, it's yet another conceptual breakthrough that most studies on exercise were suggesting that people should go for a high exercise intensity in order to burn more calories and so as to lose weight.

Recently, more scientific evidences prove that slow jogging (running speed below 4KM/Hr) hardly increase the lactic acid level in our body, which means you'll have longer-lasting performance without tiredness!


Moreover this exercise may increase more vessels all over your muscles, and the efficiency of the circulation and metabolism in your body will be intensified at the same time! Read more about the details of slow jogging, please click at the following link.

  1. The first exercise you introduced seems really time-saving. To complete the whole set of workout only needs 5 minutes is really fast!!! Besides, the steps are not that difficult to learn. It is an useful exercise indeed!!! As for the slow jogging, which you also mentioned in your post, the only thing I can say is that it feels like another tedious activity.

  2. Yes, it is tedious, especially if you're jogging all ALONE... XD
