Why are your legs getting fatter? 3 reasons worth reflecting on
They turned into elephant legs, became thick and swollen, and they lost the confidence to even wear a skirt. Alas, how to thin legs after childbirth has become a problem for expectant mothers.
What happened to your legs?
To solve a problem, we must first face the problem squarely. So the first thing you need to do is look in the mirror and find out what's wrong with your legs. Generally speaking, after giving birth, your legs are most likely to have the following conditions: 1. Eumpiness in your legs: Eumpiness may occur in your thighs and calves. After childbirth, if the body has not fully recovered and there is still inflammation in the body, it is likely to develop edema. In addition, edema is also related to a person's physique. In general, people with edema constitution are more likely to gain weight in the lower body than in the upper body, and are also accompanied by constipation, cold hands and feet, less sweating, and low blood pressure.
2. Thickening of legs: Because during pregnancy, many people will supplement a large amount of high-calorie nutrients for the health of their children, this may lead to weight gain throughout the mother's body. This way, the legs will naturally become thicker. Generally, through exercise and dieting, as the overall body slimming down, the leg curve will also improve.
3. Rough leg skin: When a woman gives birth, it will have a certain impact on the body's endocrine system, which will also have an effect on the skin. Some people's skin may become smooth and smooth as a result, while some people may become dull and rough. Usually, leg skin can be effectively improved through cosmetic methods.
How to thin legs?
1. Being sedentary or lacking exercise for a long time will not only lead to the inability to burn body fat and gain weight, but also lead to decreased muscle contraction and varicose veins.
2. Soaking feet and legs runs through all functions of the human body. By soaking feet to unblock the meridians, you will not only get a pair of beautiful legs, but also a good body.
When soaking feet, the water temperature should not be too hot, about 50 degrees. Foot soaking agents such as bath salts can be added to the water to accelerate blood circulation and achieve a better anti-edema effect.
3. Standardize your sitting posture Since the new mother is still recovering, it does not inhumanely force the new mother not to sit for a long time. If the time cannot be adjusted, adjust the posture. Correct sitting posture is also helpful for stovepipe. The correct sitting posture is: the upper body is upright, the shoulders are pressed backwards, the thighs and calves are preferably at 90°, and the soles of the feet are completely on the ground.
Maintaining this sitting posture will distribute the strength in the legs more evenly, which can reduce the burden on the legs and prevent varicose veins from occurring.
4. The gallbladder meridian is located on the outer side of the thigh and refers to the area from the thigh base to the knee. As long as she has free time, the new mother can use her fist to tap gently along the base of her thighs to her knees, about 50 times a day. This can promote bile secretion and accelerate the decomposition of accumulated fat in the legs, thereby achieving the purpose of stovepipe.
