Can yoga reduce belly fat?

Yoga is a sport that is quite popular in today's society, and there are more and more yoga studios nowadays. However, many of my friends learn yoga by themselves by watching yoga videos on the Internet. This may lead to some differences in their understanding from those friends who practice yoga professionally. They do not know what parts of the body yoga can help reduce or how it can help with physical health. So, can yoga help you lose belly fat?

Yoga move 1: Cobra pose

1. Lie on your stomach with your hands under your shoulders and your legs together.

2. Inhale, slowly straighten your arms, and stretch the entire front of your body upward, look upward, keep your pubic bone on the ground and stretch your feet backward. Maintain this position and breathe normally for 6 to 8 times. (Every time I do this exercise, I can hear the sound of the vertebrae above the coccyx being stretched, and it feels so good to stretch my whole body!)

3. Exhale, slowly bend your arms, let your waist, chest, and neck return to the ground in turn, and return to the prone position. Repeat this posture 3 to 5 times.

Yoga pose 2: Boat pose

1. Sit up straight with your back slightly tilted back. Bring your feet together, bend your knees and place your feet on the ground, and place your hands under your knees.

2. Inhale. Lift your calves until they are parallel to the ground, with your toes pointing upwards. Lean your upper body back at a 45-degree angle to the ground, and tighten your abdomen to focus on balancing your entire body. Advanced exercise: exhale, lock your heels, and stretch your feet out and straighten them at a 45-degree angle, with your torso and feet forming a "V" shape. Lift your arms and stretch them forward parallel to the ground. Gather strength in your torso and straighten your back and chest. Squeeze your feet together. Keep breathing naturally. Hold this position for 10 seconds or more.

Yoga action three, spinal twist

1. Sit on the ground with your legs stretched forward and your back straight.

2. Bend your left leg, place your left foot on the outside of your right leg, and bend your right leg toward the left and back.

3. Place your left hand on the ground behind your body and lock your left knee with your right elbow.

4. Exhale and turn your body to the left and back as much as possible, thereby twisting your spine.

5. Turn to the limit.

Yoga action 4: plank pose

1. Lie on the yoga mat, place your hands on both sides of your chest, put your toes on the ground, and support your body with force.

2. Distribute the strength evenly across your palm, tighten the muscles of your chest, back, abdomen, and buttocks, and make your body a straight line.

3. Move your head forward and feel your yoga neck extending infinitely forward from the spine. Eyes naturally look straight down. Relax your throat and eyes.

4. Plank pose is a position in the traditional sun salutation. Alternatively, you can practice the pose as a single exercise and hold it for 30 to 60 seconds.

The above is an introduction to whether practicing yoga can reduce belly fat. I hope everyone can understand that yoga can reduce belly fat. But you must master the correct method, so that it can help to lose belly fat. Also, don't be too anxious during the practice. Only by persisting for a long time can you achieve great results.
