As a rule, young guys look slim and fit. Even girls sometimes envy them, they say, guys eat whatever they want and do not get better! And the thing is that the youthful body is a rather energetic thing that can process all the calories that enter it. But the years go by, the guy grows up, sometimes his stomach also increases. Why is my belly growing?
Men's size is a special issue! They mean a lot to the strong half of humanity. For example, many men by the age of 30 completely lose their athletic form! Their tucked up belly turns into a saggy tummy or big belly. All sorts of studies in this area have shown that a huge "mammon" (Jewish belly) with a normal weight of a man has a negative impact on his he alth. According to statistics, the death rate among people with a large waist is quite high. Sorry for the details, but many "pot-bellied" men are horrified that their dignity is simplylost in the background of fat folds! Why does the belly grow in middle-aged and old men? Let's find out!
Why does a man's belly grow?
There are so many different opinions here. Some say that this is due to the abuse of beer, others are inclined to think that malnutrition is to blame, still others are almost sure that this is due to constant driving, others say that impaired metabolism in the body is the true the reason why the belly is growing! In men, all of the above factors, of course, "contribute" to this problem, but that's not all. Do not think that everything is so simple. The reasons for the growing belly in men are completely different, friends, and there are only two of them! Let's dwell on them in more detail.
So why is the belly growing
- In men, the most important muscles responsible for the appearance of their abdomen are, of course, the abdominal muscles. It happens that they lose their tone, relax. It is this weakness of theirs that provokes its "swelling". For example, among beer lovers, the rectus abdominis muscle quickly loses its tone, which provokes the formation of a "beer keg" in the place where the toned press was recently. And for drivers, on the contrary, the stomach begins to hang down on the sides. This is because the man is sitting in the car in such a way that his oblique muscles are completely relaxed.
- The second reason for a large male belly is the presence of fat deposits. Of course, at first it is a completely harmless fatty layer, which is difficult to notice with the naked eye. But over time, subcutaneous fat grows, and hence the abdominal (internal) fat, located in the omentum and surrounding the abdominal organs. It is this internal fat, according to doctors, that causes great damage to men's he alth! After all, for its processing, the liver has to take even more insulin from the blood, which leads to its increase in the blood. This, in turn, leads to a faster heart rate. I think it is not necessary to explain that it wears out faster than usual. As a result - diabetes, hypertension, risk of stroke and problems with potency.
