Should You Workout While Getting CoolSculpting?

10 Jan Should You Workout While Getting CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting has recently been taking the aesthetic medicine market by storm and helping many people tone up, firm up and lose stubborn fat. Whether you are worried about a pooch in your belly, flabby arms, or excess fat on your thighs—Coolsculpting is a powerful solution that can help you get rid of this stubborn fat—and get rid of it for good.

Many people have tried CoolSculpting and gotten fantastic results with this procedure—and one of the biggest questions that patients have when they get this procedure a try is whether or not they should workout while getting CoolSculpting.

The answer is “yes.” One of the great things about CoolSculpting is that unlike invasive procedures such as liposuction, you can go back to your everyday activities right after the procedure is done—this means hitting the gym.

During the weeks while you wait for your body to destroy and naturally dispose of these fat cells, you should absolutely be working out, and here are a few reasons why.

1. It will speed up the process. If you workout after CoolSculpting, as the fat flushes out of your system, you are only going to expedite the process. In fact, people who see the most dramatic results in ashorter period of time are those that workout regularly. Plus, people who exercise are more likely to maintain a healthy diet, which will prevent you from adding to the fat you are freezing away.
2. It can help tone and tighten. Some people see such dramatic results with their CoolSculpting that they have a little bit of flabby skin leftover when they lose all of that fat. Working out, while your body eliminates the excess fat will only help tone and tighten this excess skin.
3. It will help you maintain long-term results. If you start working out now and get in a habit of working out, it will only keep you motivated to continue this healthy lifestyle long after your CoolSculpting treatment is over. This will help you maintain your results, and even lose more fat while you’re at it. In fact, most patients feel more motivated to take care of themselves after their CoolSculpting treatment, so they can continue to look their best, and get even more toned and sculpted.
4. It can help with actual weight loss. CoolSculpting is not a magic pill that will help you lose tons of weight—it is designed to eliminate stubborn fat. Working out while you do CoolSculpting is a great way to get the best of both worlds as you lose actual pounds and eliminate fat a the same time for the dramatic results you’ve always wanted.
