Tea and fitness

In recent years, we have witnessed an accelerated pace of life, which unfortunately means stress and unhealthy eating. In the sea of ​​obligations, we often forget the most important thing – our health. We can achieve a slim look and a healthy, well-shaped body with a proper diet, with moderate exercise, but also with the consumption of suitable teas.

Fitness and tea for better sport and exercise

We wonder what it is that connects tea and fitness, i.e. exercise

Of course a lot comes from exercise such as better looks, fitness and health. Juices are not a good choice if you want to keep your body hydrated while exercising. Sugary and carbonated juices can cause bloating and stomach cramps, which is by no means desirable during exercise. Recent research suggests that tea is a good choice before and during exercise because it promotes drainage, fools hunger and trims the line. Teas help us achieve a beautiful complexion, smooth and healthy skin, strengthen immunity, increase energy, speed up metabolism (loss of extra pounds and fat deposits) and achieve better results in sports.

Which teas to use as refreshment during training?

An ideal choice would be green tea. Universal cleaners of the body from toxins, stimulate metabolism, remove fat, expel water from the subcutaneous tissue (cellulite in women, important for bodybuilding), contain theine (caffeine), which is why they can be a good stimulant for training, and at the same time raise body temperature (thermogenesis). which results in increased consumption of calories (acceleration of metabolism), stimulate digestion, etc.

There is also an alternative to green tea, which are oolong tea, rooibos tea and yellow tea.

Fitness and tea for better sports and exerciseNamely, oolong tea contains a higher proportion of thein, which makes it a better stimulant before and during training, strengthens and strengthens the body/organism, and, like green teas, expels water from the subcutaneous tissue (diuretic effect). Also, it contains a higher proportion of polyphenols, healthy substances, which clean and strengthen the body/organism, and benefit the skin and complexion (reduction of cellulite).

Yellow tea contains an enzyme that stimulates metabolism and fat burning. This affects a noticeable loss of body fat and an increase in energy. Unlike oolong tea, it contains a minimal amount of theine (caffeine), so it can be consumed almost unlimitedly during the day, but also in the evening. This is important because it does not create stomach acids (problem of gastritis) and does not disturb, and the more it is consumed, the greater the effect for accelerating metabolism and burning fat.

Rooibos tea is rich in vitamins and minerals, of which vitamin C and iron predominate, which are good for strengthening immunity and increasing energy, and since it does not contain theine (caffeine) it can be consumed almost unlimited. This tea is ideal for athletes who lose a lot of fluid (running, cycling, etc.) and is suitable for consumption in the gym during the period of “definition” (loss of fat tissue) because it favors longer training sessions and stronger intensity.

So far we have talked about teas that are drunk before and during training, and what about afterwards, what about recovery?

Fitness and tea for better sport and exerciseThe ideal choice after training is white tea, popularly called the elixir of health, beauty and longevity. It is known that during the day and during training, the body creates toxins due to metabolic processes. They slow down recovery, damage the skin, complexion (cellulite), and their accumulation in the body can even lead to various diseases. 0&Itemid=686″>White tea best cleanses the body of toxins and is the strongest diuretic that helps the complexion, reducing cellulite, promotes faster recovery after training and has a soothing and invigorating effect. All of the above makes it the best tea drink after training or before going to bed, because it promotes sounder and healthier sleep for faster recovery of the body and muscles after sports efforts.

It can be concluded that tea is as much a traditional as it is a modern drink. Tea culture is a component of the quality and healthy life of a modern man.
