Foot bath
Don't treat foot baths as a routine daily foot cleaning. Proper foot bath techniques can make weight loss twice as effective. The soles of the feet contain various important acupoints. A hot foot bath before bed not only stimulates these acupoints, helping to relieve fatigue, accelerate metabolism, and promote peripheral circulation, but also speeds up detoxification. Various metabolic wastes that affect body shape can be quickly eliminated from the body through circulation and bodily fluids, removing obstacles to weight loss.
For foot baths, it's recommended to use a dedicated foot bath basin to maintain a constant water temperature. Adding some liniment or essential oils with blood-circulating and muscle-relaxing properties can enhance the slimming effect. The foot bath should not be too long; about 20 minutes is sufficient. Slight sweating is the ideal state achieved with a proper foot bath.
Stand against the wall
Standing against a wall, also known as "standing against the wall," is a simple method that not only avoids fatigue but also effectively burns body fat, firms the skin, accelerates metabolism, and helps improve sleep quality. When practicing, remember the core principle of the "three-point alignment": your heels, buttocks, and the back of your head should be aligned as close to the wall as possible, with your knees and heels together and your arms relaxed and hanging naturally at your sides. However, for faster weight loss, you can forcefully straighten your arms and place them against your outer thighs, while keeping all your muscles engaged.
Hip-lifting exercises
Hip-lifting exercises primarily target areas like the buttocks and inner/outer thighs that often don't get enough exercise. This effectively firms muscles and maintains a lifted, shapely buttock. It's best to practice before bed. Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and feet slightly apart. Place your hands naturally on either side of your hips, palms flat on the bed. Engage your core and lift your hips, slowly raising them upwards, then slowly lower them back down. Maintain even breathing throughout the exercise. Aim for a slight burning sensation in your buttocks and thighs. Practice for 5-10 minutes before bed each night, and you should see results in about a week.
Abdominal massage
With your navel as the center, press your palm firmly against your abdomen and massage in circular motions, 100 times per set. Do 3 sets of this massage every night before going to sleep. Abdominal massage can effectively stimulate the meridians in the abdomen, helping to increase the speed of fat metabolism. At the same time, the peristalsis of the intestines will also speed up, and you will feel a relaxed and comfortable bowel movement the next morning.
