[Weight loss tips] Sit-ups are the fastest way to lose weight in the abdomen

The waist and abdomen are where fat is most likely to accumulate in the human body, and they are also the key areas for female friends to lose weight. Sit-ups are considered to be the fastest way to lose weight in the waist and abdomen. So what is the most effective way to do it?

Wrong movements to lose weight in waist and abdomen

1. The body is not raised high enough: Many people do sit-ups for years, only lifting their head and shoulders off the ground. It’s just a wrong posture and can’t really achieve the effect of reducing belly fat.

2. Hold your head and neck and pull it up: Many people like to hold the back of their heads with both hands when doing sit-ups and then use their hands to lift up the entire head, which will cause pressure on the neck.

Wrong posture can easily cause sports injuries. If you want to achieve the desired effect of sit-ups, then quickly look at how to do it in the correct posture and stop doing "useless work"!

Correct sit-up movements for waist and abdomen weight loss

1. Relax your body and lie on your back on the bed or on the floor.

2. Raise your legs and place them on bedding or a chair so that your knees and hips are approximately at right angles. This will prevent the thigh and groin muscles from being involved in exerting force.

Editor's suggestion: If the height of the bed or chair is not suitable, you can stack them up with books or magazines, and the height can be freely controlled.

3. Cross your hands in front of your chest.

4. After starting the movement, contract your abdominal muscles, lift your upper body up, and feel your shoulder blades (upper back) leave the bed.

The editor recommends: It is best to lie on a yoga mat with greater friction to prevent your buttocks from rushing forward with the movement of your body, which would affect the standard of your movements.

5. Then slowly lower yourself until your shoulder blades lightly touch the bed, and immediately repeat the next movement.

6. Generally, do 2 to 3 sets each time, rest for about 1 minute between sets, and 15 to 20 times per set.

Precautions

During the movement, the waist should never leave the bed or the ground, only the upper body should be lifted and lowered. You can observe whether your head or elbows touch your knees. If so, it means your waist has left the ground, so be sure to correct it. To make it easier, place your hands at your sides or reach them up and forward, touching your knees with your fingers as you lift your torso. If you want to increase the difficulty, you can slow down the movement or increase the number of times. This movement does not have a large range of motion, but it is very effective for the abdominal muscles and is one of the basic movements in fitness training.
