Shorts for weight loss

For many women, the problem of getting rid of extra pounds is always relevant. Slimming shorts, a recently popular thing, are a strong temptation for ladies who dream of a flawless figure., but at the same time do not want or do not have the opportunity to spend time in the gym.

Thermal shorts, according to manufacturers, are based on the following principles of exposure to the body:

• Sauna effect (or steam effect). Thermal underwear prevents air from reaching the body, and it begins to heat up and sweat vigorously, while blood flow increases. As a result, fatty deposits are burned, and slags and toxins are removed through the skin.
• Massage. Some shorts easily massage the skin thanks to special inserts.
• Compress effect. The products support the muscles of the thigh and pelvis, due to which they do not fatigue so quickly during training - the risk of injury is reduced.
• Warming action. Certain models are impregnated with pepper extract and other warming substances that increase blood circulation.

Despite the declared benefits of slimming shorts, the purchase of this item should be treated wisely. If you just lie on the couch and wait for the result, you will not achieve anything. In addition, some busy women who do not find time for sports training simply wear shorts to work under their main clothes. It is clear that this will not bring the desired effect.

A model such as "sauna" shorts is only suitable for a certain physique. If you have a large difference between the circumference of the waist and hips, then the product will not "stick" well to the body. When the so-called steam effect occurs, then you lose excess moisture, it has a certain weight, and formally you, of course, lose weight. But muscle tone does not improve at the same time.Such weight loss should serve as motivation for you so that physical exercise is sure to be included in the struggle for an ideal body.

A number of experts claim that the periodic squeezing of body parts entails a violation of the lymph flow, which is already dangerous to health. In this case, the structure of the skin also undergoes pathological changes due to a violation of oxygen access. Diaper rash may occur. Since bacteria are always present on the skin, they begin to multiply with the steam effect, and dermatitis or allergic reactions may appear.

It is important to know that tightly squeezing shorts also put pressure on the genitals. - and this can lead to inflammation and even infertility.

Many people, deciding to try on themselves the notorious slimming shorts, do not even realize that they have a number of contraindications:

• Pregnancy and lactation.
• Skin diseases, high level of skin sensitivity, tendency to irritation.
• Allergy to synthetic fabrics.
• Varicose veins disease.
• Problems in the work of the cardiovascular system.
• Kidney dysfunctions.
• Gynecological pathologies.
• Oncological education.
• Chronic diseases of internal organs in the acute stage.

A sufficient assortment in slimming shorts stores offers products for daily wear, as well as for sports. And although almost all shorts are made from similar materials, due to the texture and density of the fabric, their effect is different.

• Slimming. Such products visually correct the female figure, make it more slender, and act as a corset that conceals fat deposits. But these shorts do not imply weight loss as such.
• Sauna-effect shorts. Promote weight loss by removing moisture from the body.
• Anti-cellulite. In addition to the steam effect, a light massage is also carried out due to the material with a cellular structure. Shorts with red pepper extract also fight cellulite.

A separate option is expensive myostimulator shorts on wireless electrodes. They work the muscles of the thighs, glutes and abs. But, according to experts, such products do not lead to weight loss, but only contribute to an increase in muscle tone. Ideally, myostimulants should act as an adjunct to active sports training. It should be borne in mind that improper or prolonged use of these devices may cause skin burns.

Slimming shorts are presented by various manufacturers. Let's review the most popular brands:

• Artemis. The shorts and breeches are pleasant to the body due to the addition of lycra and an inner cotton cover. The brand offers products with a high waist, as well as a comfortable side zipper. The waist circumference is adjusted with a Velcro fastener.
• Vulkan. The shorts feature a trendy design - ribbed panels on the sides to make a woman look stylish in the fitness club. The thermoseed inside the product provides a light body massage and prevents the appearance of stretch marks.
• Hot Shapers. Made of a special material (neotex - a combination of neoprene with polyester and nylon in equal parts).
• Sunex.Reversible high-waisted models are produced, made of neoprene and latex.
• Hotex. Develops anti-cellulite shapewear made from nylon with spandex for daily wear, impregnated with pepper.
• Mega slim. Elongated slimming shorts with front zipper, suitable for cellulite prevention and skin firmness recovery.

Thermo shorts, regardless of the manufacturer, are basically made of neoprene - highly elastic waterproof material that can tighten the figure and take any shape. Depending on the model, this fabric is contained in the product in different quantities, complemented by nylon, polyester, elastane. Only some products contain latex and thermosel.

These materials are inherently non-allergenichowever, dyes and special impregnations (red pepper extract, fish liver extract) can irritate the skin. Neoprene thermal underwear has a thickness of about 4 mm, therefore it is imperceptible under clothes. A number of manufacturers apply cotton dusting on the seamy side for more comfortable wear.

If you have no contraindications to the use of slimming shorts (it is recommended to consult a specialist in advance), you still need to wear them with caution, observing a number of rules:

• Do not wear these clothes for more than three hours in a row.
• It is not recommended to wear thermal shorts on a naked body - so that the abundant sweat is absorbed, put cotton underwear under them. Avoid contact of the shorts with the genitals.
• Do not engage in too intense sports in weight loss models - prefer fitness, yoga, fitball.
• After you have removed your shorts, be sure to take a shower and ventilate the item in the open air.
• If you do not have time for sports, then at least apply an anti-cellulite cream under the thermal shorts.
• Choose a model strictly according to your size.
• If you constantly feel pressure, give up these clothes to avoid problems with the genitourinary system.

In order not to harm your health, it should be remembered that when using shorts for weight loss, you must strictly follow the rules of hygiene, in particular, wash them regularly, because a lot of bacteria accumulate on the sweaty skin. Turn the garment inside out first to minimize wear and snagging. Do not use chlorine powders and bleaches - this will negatively affect the fabric. In general, wash thermal shorts very carefully and do not try to dry-clean them. Manufacturers recommend washing their products by hand, but to save time, you can also use the washing machine, only without spinning and drying.

The price of thermal shorts starts at 600 rubles. The price of some branded models can go up to 3,500 rubles in stores. On average, these products can be purchased in specialized stores or online stores for 1200-1500 rubles. Separately, it is worth mentioning about myostimulator shorts - here there is already a different price range - over 10 thousand rubles.

The opinion of medical specialists about thermal shorts is controversial. Some quite admit their use, considering them to be effective in the fight against obesity, while agreeing that physical activity must be present. Others consider such experiments to be hazardous to health. Thermal shorts violate the natural physiology of a person - they disrupt lymph flow, skin breathing, squeeze the pelvic organs.

Reviews of women actively using these clothes are also shared. Some people constantly take them with them to the gym and, indeed, feel their positive effect: sweating increases many times over, the skin is smoothed, although the "orange peel" does not disappear completely (after all, in order to forget about cellulite,a set of measures is needed - a rational diet, massage). Many women, indeed, lose extra pounds, but again on condition of physical activity (gym, fitness, dancing). Plus, many people like to do house cleaning in them (and this is also a load).
