To make the whole day successful, you need to start the morning with something pleasant - for example, by smiling at your own reflection in the mirror. But what to do if the “picture” is not pleasing, the fat folds are visible to the naked eye, and there is no money, time or desire to go to the gym?
An excellent way out would be easy weight loss exercises, which will not take much time, but will allow you to “tighten” your figure, make it slimmer and neater. What exercises are the most effective, how to perform them and what rules to remember when training? This will be discussed further.
What you need to know about such gymnastics
Trainers in different countries are actively arguing which gymnastics is best for losing weight: some argue that you must train for at least an hour, others focus on cardio or strength training. However, the presented complex differs from popular programs in a number of advantages:
- it works the main “problem” muscles, but does not cause excessive fatigue;
- gymnastics takes about half an hour a day, and can be performed at a convenient time;
- there is no need to purchase special devices or sports equipment;
- People with different levels of physical fitness can exercise.
If you have chronic diseases of the joints, heart, diabetes, or high obesity, consult a doctor before starting training.
If you feel unwell, reduce the intensity of your workout or cancel it. Please note that the complex should be performed regularly: in this case, the muscles will become more resilient, stronger, but not more prominent (without the effect of a “pumped” body). Fat tissue will gradually “dissolve” (since energy is required to nourish muscles even at rest).
To ensure maximum benefit from your classes, follow these simple recommendations. First of all, adjust your diet: reduce the amount of fat, sweet or fried foods. Add more protein and greens to your diet. Drink at least two liters of water.
It is important to exercise every day, only on weekends you can make an indulgence. Choose the time for training depending on your schedule, but no earlier than forty minutes after a meal and no later than half an hour before it. Try not to overeat after training.
Start with the minimum number of repetitions and only then gradually add load.
The benefits of strength training
This sport has undeniable benefits for human health. It is able to rid a person of external defects, for example, stoop, crooked posture, sunken chest, etc. Strength gymnastics will help train the cardiovascular system.
A person who regularly attends training becomes stronger and more resilient. It is noted that gymnasts-athletes have a good nervous system. For women, this sport will help them achieve an almost ideal figure, and will also restore the ability to quickly restore the body.
Recently, athletic gymnastics has been increasingly practiced among young people. The fact is that active sports will help distract the younger generation from bad habits. Frequent exercise makes a healthy lifestyle a habit and a person disciplined.
