Of course, summer, along with the beach season, is already drawing to a close, but this does not mean at all that you can relax and run yourself until the next warm days. A perfectly toned belly will never be superfluous, and even in the cold autumn-winter period it will add self-confidence to you.
It has long been known that strength training alone, for example, enhanced abdominal exercises, cannot achieve a flat abdomen. This will only lead to the fact that you pump yourself "armor" under the fat layer. Fitness trainers are actively promoting cardio training, which, allegedly, are considered the best helpers in this difficult task. Spend half an hour a day running, and soon your figure will pleasantly surprise you. But what about those beautiful women who do not have free 30 minutes a day, or running is contraindicated for them due to health reasons, or (to be honest, the most common case) they simply do not have enough willpower to force themselves to run every day? In this case, breathing exercises will help you!
As you know, oxygen helps burn fat cells, and breathing exercises are aimed precisely at the active supply of oxygen to the body. And most importantly, oxygen has a beneficial effect not only on the appearance, but also on the internal state.
Just 15 minutes a day dedicated to light exercise helps:
- Dull the feeling of hunger
- Optimize the digestive process
- Break down fat cells
- Add vigor and strength
- Strengthen the immune system
- Calm the nervous system
Of course, this method of losing weight is not durable, and if the program is terminated, you will quickly (within a month) gain all your centimeters at the waist back, but if you exercise regularly, you are guaranteed success.
So, all that is needed is to get up 15 minutes earlier than usual and on an empty stomach (this is the most important thing) to perform only 3 exercises:
- We stand up straight, feet shoulder-width apart, hands at the waist. You can rest one hand on your stomach for convenience. We take a breath - round the stomach. Exhale - draw in. It is important to do gymnastics in a measured way and strain your abs. We repeat for 2 minutes.
- Then we act according to the same technique, only we inhale and exhale not completely. A small breath - round the stomach, inhale a little more, and inhale a little again. After a short exhalation, we draw in the stomach, exhale a little more, and exhale a little again. Do not forget to strain the abs as much as possible. We repeat the exercise for 10 minutes.
- And finally, we take a breath - we round the stomach, as we exhale, we bend over, exhale as much as possible, draw in the stomach and hold our breath. Immediately, we slowly straighten up and count to 8. It is important to do everything slowly so that your head does not spin out of habit. We repeat for 3 minutes.
Such simple exercises help to remove extra centimeters in a matter of days, in a week, with high-quality performance, you can get rid of as much as 5 hated centimeters in the waist area, and the best part is that the result is visible on the second day. This method is perfect if you have a vacation in a week, and your figure is not in order.
