A indexer style that helps women strengthen their pelvis and strengthen their abdominal muscles
There is a theory on weight loss in Japan that people's obesity, especially below the abdomen, stems from the pelvis being too wide open, and an action has been introduced that can bring the pelvis together and close: lie flat on the bed, lift your legs, buckle your toes inside and touch each other, and straighten your knees. When practicing this movement, I do feel that the strength of the pelvis is gathering inward, but it is unknown whether it will be useful for weight loss.
Putting aside weight loss, the health of the pelvis is of great significance to women, especially those entering the reproductive age. Doing more indexer exercises can improve the flexibility and elasticity of the pelvis, and can also strengthen the abdominal muscles. It can be described as beautiful and healthy.
Exercise: Index Style
1. Lie on the floor to the left, bend the knees of your left leg, straighten your right hand, place your right hand on the outside of your right thigh, bend your left hand, and support your head with your palms.
2. Inhale, lift your right foot, bend your knees, bring your thighs as close to the ribs as possible, stretch your right hand to grab the tip of your right foot, and keep your body still on your side.
3. Exhale and pull your right foot towards the top of your head with your right hand, without bending your right hand.
4. Stretch the right leg as long as possible to stretch the leg muscles and ribs and abdomen muscles.
5. Hold this position and breathe 5 times.
6. Bend and relax your right knee, straighten it again, and repeat 5 times.
7. Change the other side to do the above exercises.
Exercise efficacy: This posture mainly acts on the pelvis, allowing the shapes of the left and right pelvis to open and close equally and return to the normal position. At the same time, it can also improve the digestion and excretion ability of the practitioner and strengthen the abdominal muscles. The thoracic and cervical vertebrae can also be exercised, which has special effects on treating bronchitis, tonsillitis, cough and other diseases.
Experience sharing: Overall, if the flexibility of the legs is good, doing this exercise will stretch the thigh muscles and muscles well and feel very stretched. When lifting your feet, be careful not to lean forward and keep your upper body in a chest posture. Only in this way can you achieve results. Focus on your legs for better results.
