Does regular squatting help lose weight?

Nowadays, female friends will try their best to show their graceful little figures to everyone no matter in winter or summer. So for friends who are fat, one thing they should do all year round is to lose weight. Friends who have experience in losing weight through exercise and fitness should know that squats are a method often used in weight loss. Regular squat exercises have a good slimming effect on our body, so today I will tell you how squats can help you lose weight?

Please first prepare a cube-shaped object whose height does not exceed your belly button. It can be a box, a chair, or a very low table, etc., as long as one of its faces is perpendicular to the floor. As shown in the picture below, it is 100% effective in preventing your knees from going beyond your toes. But please don't use the wall, otherwise you may end up falling onto the floor because there is no room to lean forward.

Stand facing the box with your toes resting on the bottom of the box. Keep your upper body straight, chest up, abdomen contracted, and then raise your hands to shoulder height. The purpose of this movement is to pull your body's center of gravity forward and also to prevent you from sitting down on the floor.

Take a deep breath, then slowly sit your butt back as if there was a chair behind you. Your upper body will lean forward slightly to maintain balance, but the emphasis is on the squatting movement of sitting back rather than leaning forward. Please note that your abdominal muscles remain contracted and your upper body remains straight.

Your weight should be on your heels, not your toes, from start to finish. Inhale slowly as you squat down until your thighs are parallel to the floor, then slowly pull them back up. Exhale slowly during the retraction process, try to maintain a constant speed, and avoid squatting down quickly and then bouncing up. After completing the movement, your posture should be the same as the preparation movement before squatting. Remember to pull your buttocks back and don't leave them behind.

After the above introduction, have you learned how to use squats to lose weight? The most critical thing when using squats to lose weight is whether the movements are standard. If you do not squat according to formal requirements, no matter how many times you do it, the effect will not be particularly obvious. Therefore, we must strictly demand ourselves. If you have learned it, we can do squats to lose weight at home in the future.
