What should we pay attention to in yoga?

Yoga slimming is really good for people who want to lose weight, because yoga focuses on internal regulation, so it is not easy to rebound after losing weight. This weight loss method has advantages that cannot be compared with weight loss with drugs and exercise. More and more people like yoga as a way of losing weight, which is very high-end and classy. For yoga beginners, there are some issues that need to be paid attention to. If you are not careful, it may have adverse effects on your body.

Assess your own situation first

Know whether you have high blood pressure, heart disease, cervical spine injury, herniated disc, or any previous injuries, and inform your teacher to avoid any actions that may cause danger.

Beginners looking for professional guidance

Beginners should avoid practicing yoga alone. They should choose a professionally certified yoga teacher for guidance and choose appropriate courses. They should warm up before practicing. Do it within your ability and stop immediately if you feel uncomfortable.

Be careful

Fitness instructor Jian Hanning demonstrates the following 5 yoga moves with a higher risk level, and reminds beginners to do them under the guidance of a professional yoga teacher and not to practice alone.

Keep your shoulders stable and don't shake

Contraindications: Not suitable for people with herniated disc, cervical spine injury, or yoga beginners.

Step 1

Lie flat on your back with your feet together, your hands flat on both sides of your body, bend your knees, and use your abdominal strength to lift your buttocks.

Step 2

Bend your elbows and support your lower back with your hands, while keeping your knees bent and raising your feet above your body.

Step 3

After making sure your body is stable, stretch your legs toward the ceiling, press your chin slightly against your chest, and extend your neck toward the top of your head. Hold for a few breaths, then slowly descend back to the ground.

Note: If you cannot do step 3, do not force yourself, just do step 2.

Therefore, yoga exercise is a gradual process. You should not rush into it. You should choose the exercise method that suits you according to your own situation. Yoga also has many postures. Some postures are too difficult and require very high flexibility of the human body. Such postures are not suitable for beginners to exercise.
