Excess fat is a woman's lifelong enemy, especially for women who naturally love beauty. Extra fat means a bloated figure, which in turn damages their image, and image and appearance are what women care about most. Therefore, losing weight is urgent. Weight loss is the process of burning fat and building muscle. While fat is necessary for the body, too much fat affects the figure, obscuring a slender silhouette. Especially fat accumulation in the waist and abdomen makes a person look bloated and unattractive.
Yoga, a form of body shaping practice, teaches you how to manage your fat. It not only involves burning fat through exercise but also increasing muscle mass to help fat return to its proper place, sculpting a sexy figure and showcasing feminine grace. Those who can control their bodies can control their lives. Regular yoga practice not only burns fat, helps with weight loss and body shaping, but also cultivates character, nourishes the spirit, and calms the mind. Below is a set of yoga poses for reducing fat in the waist and abdomen. Ladies who want to lose weight, get started!
Slimming Yoga 1: Support Hero Pose
Action details:
Exhale and return to the four-legged bench pose, knees together, feet apart, toes pointing straight back, insteps flat, heels pointing towards the sky. Try to slowly lean back, if possible, resting your buttocks on the yoga mat between your feet. If this is difficult, take a yoga block, place it between your ankles, and grip the block with the inside of your arches, leaning back further to try and sit on the block. Once in position, interlace your fingers, inhale and raise your hands overhead, palms facing up, exhale and lower your head, maintaining your breath.
Locate your sit bones and gently push down on the yoga blocks while extending your arms upwards. Relax your armpits, being careful not to force your lumbar spine forward. On the next inhale, turn your palms over and bring them back to your chest, placing your hands on your thighs. Relax your cervical spine, close your eyes, and naturally adjust your breathing. Continue to stretch your knees and ankles.
Slimming Yoga 2: Side Plank Pose
Action details:
Relax in Child's Pose, maintaining natural breathing. On the last inhale, prepare for the left side plank. Begin in a square bench pose, arms straight down, then extend each leg back one at a time, toes curled back, completing the plank pose. Exhale, lean your body to your left, lifting your right arm off the ground and reaching towards the sky, alternating your stance with your legs, engaging your thighs, and lifting your pelvis. Maintain even breathing. For the last three breaths, you can slightly increase the speed of your breathing. On the last breath, exhale, lower your right hand back, bend your knees onto the yoga mat, and push your hips back, returning to Child's Pose.
Slimming Yoga 3: Supine Rest
Action details:
After the last breath, slowly shift your weight forward, supporting yourself with your hands. Exhale, straighten your knees, and lie face down on the yoga mat, placing your hands back at your sides and your forehead on the ground in a resting position. Maintain three even and steady breaths, with your abdomen slightly rising with each inhale and feeling as much air as possible being expelled from your lungs with each exhale. After the last breath, we begin the next set of movements.
