Want to slim your waist and abdomen? Just a few simple steps are enough

The waist and abdomen are the parts of the human body where fat is most likely to accumulate. Many people who want to lose weight are troubled by this. But in fact, if you want to lose weight around your waist and abdomen, you don’t need large-scale strenuous exercise. Just a few simple tricks are enough.

Waist slimming and abdominal exercises

Step 1: This move is a bit difficult. Lie on your side on the floor with one arm bent, supporting your body with your elbow and your forearm pointing forward. Keep your body straight, then push your waist down so that your entire lower body touches the ground, and then pull up. Repeat this movement 2 sets, 20 times each set.

Step 2: Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width apart and your arms outstretched. Then twist your waist downward, touch the sole of your left foot with your right hand, stand upright, and switch to your left hand. Repeat this movement 3 sets, 10 times each set.

Step 3: Stand with your feet apart. Hold a fitness bar with both hands, place it on your shoulders (if you don't have a fitness bar, you can cross your hands and hold them flat in front of your chest), and keep your back straight. Then stretch your waist to both sides slowly, pay attention to the amplitude, and avoid straining it. Repeat this movement 3 sets, 20 times each set.

Tips for slimming waist and abdomen

Action essentials 1: Sitting and pulling the spine

When sitting, try to keep your spine straight, so as not to provide a breeding ground for excess fat. With the body in place, place one elbow against the side of the waist, lean the body to one side, and stretch the other hand backward and upward as far as possible. At this time, lift your chin to avoid fat accumulation under the chin, and at the same time think about your navel, which is also called "focusing on the Dantian." This can make the limbs more coordinated and open, and enjoy the innate beauty of the limbs.

Action essentials 2: Lunge

Bend the front leg and push the back leg, alternating legs and repeating. This can restore and maintain knee joint function and enhance its toughness.

Action Tip 3: Turn into the shape of "8"

With the spine as the center, open your hands naturally and use your hips to draw a horizontal "8" shape. It can reduce fat in the waist and abdomen, maintaining its flexibility and beauty. The principle is that, under the premise of getting the body in place, the movements don't require large amounts or large amplitudes, the emphasis is on getting the limbs in place.

Action Tip 4: Sit and Pull Arms

Sit down and force your spine to be straight. Feel as if there is a rope pulling you upward. At this time, stretch your neck as far as possible, put your hands together, and stretch your arms backward and upward as far as possible. The purpose is to regain your natural upright state. This is very effective in improving the posture of the neck, chest, and lumbar spine, reducing neck wrinkles, and squeezing out excess abdominal fat.

When standing, move your ankles while maintaining a "lifted, retracted, relaxed and straightened" state. Stand straight on one leg, and repeatedly bend and stretch the other leg's ankle upward and downward as far as possible. This is effective in restoring strength in the foot and knee, and tightening the abdominal muscles and buttocks. Alternate legs to perform this movement.
