Xiumin Stats
Height: 173 cm / 5 ft. 8 inches
Weight: 67 kg / 148 lbs
Using this diet and exercise plan, Xiumin lost 8 kg / 18 lbs.
Xiumin used to be quite chubby in his debut days, but started dieting around 2016 to lose the baby fat. He has opened up about his struggles with weight loss and body image, and admits to starving himself and over-exercising. For example, during promotions for “Growl”, he skipped days of eating and only drank coffee. Unfortunately, this kind of starvation-binge dieting only leads to a yo-yo effect, where you gain back more weight than you lost. However, now he says that he has found the perfect way for him to lose weight and keep it off, and it’s all due to the diligent diet and exercise routine outlined below,
Here’s the routine Xiumin followed to lose so much weight:
Xiumin’s diet is less about the quality of the food, and rather about when you eat. Here is a sample of what his day might look like:
7:00 - 8:00 // Walk
8:00 - 9:00 // Eat breakfast
9:00 - 1:00 // No eating
1:00 - 2:00 // Eat lunch
2:00 - 6:00 // No eating
6:00 - 7:00 // Eat dinner
7:00 - 11:00 // No eating
Xiumin said that it took him about a month to see results, and after that, the weight dropped off easily. He has been maintaining his low weight since beginning the diet.
The best thing about this diet is fasted cardio, which is done when you walk first thing in the morning without eating anything. Fasted cardio is an excellent way to lose weight. By exercising on an empty stomach, your body pulls from energy stored up in the form of fat, which means that you burn fat quicker. People who do fasted cardio are also shown to burn more calories during the day, leading to rapid weight loss.
Let me know what other diets you’d like to see, or if you’d like me to try one out.
