Detox yoga to be a "clean" beauty

The accumulation of toxins in the body not only causes dull skin and gastrointestinal disorders, but also causes problems such as body edema and puffiness. In fact, some simple exercises can not only exercise the body, but also have the functions of purification and detoxification.

Exercise can accelerate metabolism and is the best way to achieve detoxification.

Breathing method: purifying the respiratory tract

Many times people's breathing is an unconscious reflex action, and the volume of gas inhaled into the lungs each time is very limited. In fact, the faster the breathing rate, the smaller the breathing volume. The oxygen that was finally inhaled was sent out before it could take effect. Coupled with the short exhalation, waste carbon dioxide continued to remain in the lungs. Therefore, instead of taking a hundred short breaths, it is better to take deep breathing or even abdominal breathing frequently to help accelerate the metabolism of waste in the body and purify the blood.

specific methods

1. Press the right nose with your thumb, exhale residual gas from the left nose, and then inhale gas from the left nose;

2. Release your thumb, press your left nose with your ring finger and little finger, exhale from the right nose, and then inhale gas from the right nose. Then press your thumb on your right nose and exhale from your left nose. Repeat this, taking 10 sets of breaths at a time.

Note: Start at the left nostril and end at the left nostril. Exhale slowly for twice as long as you inhale.

Massage method: Promote metabolism

If you want to achieve detoxification effects through massage, you must first understand the correct method. First of all, the massage gestures are very particular. They are not simply rubbing and squeezing. They should be "stroked" along the flow of the lymph, that is, massaging from the extremities of the limbs towards the heart. For example, massage the legs, massage with both hands from bottom to top in the order from ankle to knee and then to hip. This will help promote the flow of lymph and blood, make muscle metabolism more vigorous, provide cells with more nutrients to promote metabolism, and accelerate the elimination of waste.

Exercise can speed up metabolism, help detoxify the skin and lungs, eliminate toxins that cannot be solved by other organs through sweating and other methods, and can also prevent constipation. Individuals can choose the exercise method that suits them according to their preferences to help their bodies detoxify. Here are some recommendations to help you detoxify

Bounce can stimulate detoxification of the lymphatic system, relax tense emotions, lower cholesterol, improve circulation and breathing, and even dispel the body's fatal cellulitis.

Fast walking: We walk every day. Just speed up while walking, swing and stretch our arms as loudly as possible, which is the easiest and most convenient detoxification exercise. It stimulates lymph nodes and lowers cholesterol and high blood pressure.

Xiao Rong: Hello, my question is related to sneakers. There are a wide variety of sports shoes on the market nowadays. If I want to engage in different fitness activities, what type of sports shoes should I choose?

Answer: When performing fitness, choosing the right sports shoes can make the fitness effect twice the result with half the effort. Otherwise, it will cause sports injuries. Sports shoes should usually be selected based on the type of exercise you are engaged in.

Walking fast: Choose sports shoes with elastic soles to reduce the impact force on the joints with each step you take. In addition, the soles should be easier to bend than running shoes, because the feet are more powerful when pedaling back during walking, and the feet are also more bent. Big, the heel is the main force for shouldering the whole body weight when walking, and the heel should also be stable and firm.

If you walk frequently, the elasticity of your shoes will soon lose. Although it is not broken on the surface, the protective effect is not very good. It is recommended to change a pair of walking shoes every year.

Running: A good pair of running shoes is essential. Choosing the right running shoes for you depends on your weight, the shape of your feet, the way you run and whether you have injuries. Try on shoes before buying them and try running for a while to see if they are elastic enough and fit. In addition, the sole should be easier to bend. If you grab the ends of the shoe to bend it, the largest bending should be at the sole of the foot. The heel should be suitable. If it is too large, it will make you unstable when running and easily damage your ankle.

Jumping exercise: You can choose a pair of multi-purpose shoes, which will provide good support for the soles of your feet and meet the needs of a small amount of running and jumping. Generally speaking, the gym is kept at a constant temperature all year round, and you will sweat while working out. It is best to choose sneakers with good breathability and relatively light weight. Changing your sneakers every year is also a good way to protect your joints.

Simple exercises: Accelerate sweating and do some simple detoxification exercises at home. Play your favorite music at will, and continue to exercise for 20-40 minutes. You can easily achieve the effect of losing weight, sweating and detoxifying.

Push-up: Fold a soft cushion or bath towel in half and place it under the knees, move your hands forward to make your body at about 45 degrees, while reducing your abdomen, open your hands slightly wider than your shoulders, and point your fingers forward; Slowly bend your arms and press your upper body down to about 5 centimeters from the ground, while inhaling in during the pressing process, then use the squeezing force of your chest muscles to return your upper body to its original position, and exhale during the process.

Leg flexion exercise: Lie on your back on the mat, with your hands flat on your sides; bend your knees and lift your legs at the same time, holding your thighs against your abdomen for 5-10 seconds; continue to repeat after restoration.

Bridge support: Lie on your back, place your feet flat on the ground with your knees, place your hands flat on both sides of your body, and inhale; at the beginning, raise your hips, let your lower back stop off the ground for about 1 second, and slowly exhale; Then move your hips down without touching the ground, and inhale while you move down.
