Shorts for weight loss

For many women, the problem of getting rid of extra pounds is always relevant. Shorts for weight loss, a recently popular thing - a strong temptation for ladies who dream of a flawless figurebut they don’t want or are not able to spend time in the gym.

Operating principle

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

  • The effect of the sauna (or steam effect). Thermal underwear prevents air from reaching the body, and it begins to heat up and sweat heavily, while blood flow increases. As a result, fat deposits are burned, as well as toxins and toxins are removed through the skin.
  • Massage. Some models of shorts easily massage the skin thanks to special inserts.
  • The effect of the compress. Products support the muscles of the hip and pelvis, due to which they do not get tired so quickly during training - the risk of injury is reduced.
  • Warming action. Certain models are saturated with pepper extract and other warming substances that enhance blood circulation.

Advantages and disadvantages

Despite the claimed benefits of shorts for weight loss, the purchase of this thing should be treated wisely. If you just lie on the couch and wait for the result, then you won’t achieve anything. In addition, some busy women who do not find time for sports training simply put on shorts for work under basic clothes. It is clear that this will not bring the desired effect.

Such a model as “sauna” shorts is suitable only for a certain physique. If you have a big difference between the waist and hips, 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.Such weight loss should serve as a motivation for you, so that physical exercises are surely connected to the struggle for an ideal body.

Such shorts also fight cellulite - stimulation of local blood flow contributes to the visual smoothing of the “orange peel”. However, according to fitness trainers, a regular wrapping with cling film can also give a similar effect.

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

It’s important to know that tightly compressing shorts also put pressure on the genitals - And this can lead to inflammatory processes and even infertility.

In women prone to hypertension, even local overheating of the body can provoke a hypertensive crisis.

Reviews of consumers and doctors

The opinion of medical specialists regarding thermal shorts is ambiguous. Some completely allow their use, considering effective in the fight against overweight, while agreeing that physical activity must be present. Others consider such experiments hazardous to health. Thermal shorts violate the natural physiology of a person - violate the lymphatic flow, respiration of the skin, compress the pelvic organs.

Reviews of women actively using these clothes are also shared. Some constantly take them to the gym with them and, in fact, feel their positive effect: perspiration intensifies many times, the skin is smoothed, although the “orange peel” does not disappear completely (because to forget about cellulite,need a set of measures - a rational diet, massage). Many women, in fact, take extra pounds, but again, subject to physical exertion (gym, fitness, dancing). Plus, many people like to do house cleaning in them (and this is also a load).

Other ladies criticize this product, believing that the advertisement misled them, and they speak of zero result.
