Check out the five big lies of yoga and Putila
I believe that there are many women who are keen on yoga and Putila, but behind these two people there are many unknown lies, or there are conceptual misunderstandings about our practice of yoga and Putila. Today, we will find out these "lies" and give you a healthy way to lose weight.
"The best yoga hands must be surprisingly flexible."
Truth: What yoga masters fight for is "balance","spiritual peace and stability" and "spiritual clarity". It is not a competition to see who can bend his body into an arch bridge, or to see who can put his head between your legs. If you blindly pursue this, you will always be a layman in yoga.
"Practicing Pilates can stretch muscles and increase height"
Truth: Give up this fantasy! The length of your muscles will not change after you mature. All Pilates can do is help you stretch those muscles that have not yet been fully stretched. However, there is no denying that practicing Pilates can improve your body's flexibility and cultivate the correct standing posture with your chest raised. It can indeed make you look "taller".
"Pilates will help you lose weight"
Truth: I'm sorry to tell you that's a lie. Unless you are already a very advanced Pilates practitioner, the calories burned by practicing Pilates alone are not enough to help you lose fat.
"A strong back is a healthy back"
Truth: The vast majority of back injuries occur because of sudden muscle strains and wrong pad movements, not because your back is not strong enough. If a strong inverted triangular back always gets injured during twisting or weightlifting exercises, sorry, it's not as healthy as you seem.
"If your back is bad, try to exercise as little as possible"
Truth: Just like machines rust when they are inactive, doing some exercises such as brisk walking is good for the recovery of the back. These exercises are not intensive but can exercise many muscles in the back and reduce the pressure on the spine and allow the fragile back to recover as soon as possible.
