Eating show YouTuber Hibap (real name Jwa Hee-jae, 29) revealed her body with zero excess fat.
On the 28th, Hibap posted a photo after exercising on her social media (SNS). Wearing a bra top and leggings, Hibap's body is nothing short of amazing. Shyly covering her face with a sticker, Hibap showcases a slim figure with no excess fat, featuring delicate muscles from her shoulders to her arms, waist, and legs. Notably, her clearly defined abs demonstrate a workout routine comparable to that of a trainer.
Hibap is a popular eating show YouTuber with 1.7 million subscribers. "My highest monthly income is 100 million won," Hibap said, revealing that she has eaten up to 25 packs of ramen in one sitting and can easily consume 15 servings of meat. Despite this, she has maintained a height of 165cm and a weight of 49kg for over ten years.
The diet exercise recommended by Hibap on YouTube and other platforms is interval running. By incorporating exercise into her daily life, she has gained popularity as a 'slim eating show YouTuber' among the MZ generation. Let's take a look at Hibap's management method.
The Key to Hibap's Weight Management is Interval Running
High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) alternates between short bursts of high-intensity exercise and short recovery periods. By alternating between high and low intensity, it quickly raises the heart rate, resulting in a greater calorie burn over the same time period. The afterburn effect keeps metabolism elevated for a while after exercise, leading to additional energy expenditure and favoring fat loss.
Interval running on a treadmill is easy to adjust in terms of speed and incline, allowing for a tailored intensity that efficiently promotes fat burning. It is advantageous for fat loss and maintaining abs as it burns a lot of calories in a short time while improving cardiovascular endurance.
Hibap recommends doing a '5-minute set' of interval treadmill running, starting at ▲speed 6 for 1 minute walking → speed 6.5-7 for 1 minute fast walking → speed 10 for 2 minutes and 30 seconds running → walking at a slow speed for the remaining 30 seconds, repeating this 3-5 times. Hibap mentioned, "The second set is tough, but if you get through this stage, you can finish it." By repeating 1-2 minutes of fast running + 1-3 minutes of walking for 20-30 minutes, you can target both fat burning and cardiovascular strengthening effectively. Hibap is also a fitness enthusiast who incorporates jump rope and weight training into her routine.
Interval running on a treadmill helps improve cardiovascular function by repeatedly raising and lowering the heart rate, reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. It enhances overall blood circulation and oxygen supply, reducing daily fatigue and making activities like climbing stairs and walking for long periods much easier. Short but intense aerobic stimulation increases insulin sensitivity and improves blood sugar control, which is beneficial for diabetes prevention and management. Regular practice enhances both cardiovascular endurance and muscular endurance, creating a physique that supports long-term activity levels and weight management.
Beginners should increase the ratio of walking and fast walking before high-speed running to reduce strain on the knees and waist, gradually increasing speed and time for safety. Adequate stretching and rest can help reduce the risk of injury from high-intensity workouts.
Hibap's Daily Diet Through an Active Lifestyle
Thin people do not lie around. Their daily life is a continuous movement and activity. Hibap revealed her secret to maintaining a slim figure, saying, "Exercise is a part of my life. I run to the gym and back. If I have a drinking appointment and no time to exercise, I just run about 5km to the drinking place," emphasizing that her daily life is filled with exercise.
By making exercise a part of her daily routine, it greatly helps in managing weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar, as well as preventing chronic diseases. It facilitates energy metabolism, increases basal metabolic rate, and helps maintain muscle mass, allowing her to eat the same amount without gaining weight. By consistently engaging in both aerobic and strength training, she can reduce body fat while maintaining and increasing muscle mass, leading to improved body composition and stable weight fluctuations. Just 150 minutes of regular aerobic exercise per week can reduce the risk of obesity and related diseases and help manage weight.
Moreover, regular physical activity improves blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels, lowering the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and obesity. It helps increase bone density and strength, preventing osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and joint pain, and is particularly effective in reducing the risk of falls and fractures as one ages. Moving the body enhances immunity and blood circulation, slows down cellular aging, improves mood, and enhances sleep quality, concentration, and cognitive function. Habits like walking one or two stops, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, and stretching while watching TV contribute to a lean and healthy body.
