Can a yoga column roll away muscular legs?

The most visible effect of practicing yoga is that it can achieve the effect of body shaping and beauty, but in fact, in the process of practice, it also has the effect of self-cultivation and self-improvement imperceptibly. You can calm down and relax in this process. After slowly relaxing the tense nerves in your body, the leg muscles will slowly relax through yoga column training, which will achieve some leg slimming effects, but there are also objections as follows.

1. No, muscles are muscles and will not be rolled away, and the same goes for fat. This thing is for massage and relaxation. Generally, foam rollers are used to relax the body in two situations: one is after exercise, when the exercise load often makes the muscles tired and stiff, and the rolling relaxation of the foam roller can effectively relieve the stiffness and prevent muscle soreness after exercise; the other is that the body already has stiff and tight muscles, and frequently rolling the stiff parts and muscles with a foam roller can improve this adverse condition and prevent the occurrence of chronic injuries.

2. Place your calf on the foam roller and your other foot on the ground, rolling from the ankle to below the knee. If you feel that the massage pressure is not enough, you can cross your other leg over the rolling leg like crossing your legs.

Lie on your side, place the foam roller near your hip joint, place your other foot on the ground, and roll your outer thigh. If you feel the massage pressure is not enough, you can place the leg that is touching the ground on the leg that is rolling.

3. Downward Dog Pose This is a classic yoga move that can exercise your upper and lower body at the same time and stretch your ligaments. Support yourself with your hands and feet, and lift your body into an inverted "V" shape. Make sure your hands are shoulder-width apart with your fingers spread out. Stand with your feet as wide as your hips, heels pointed back, and toes, heels, and hips in one plane. Relax your head, maintain this position, and take 5 deep breaths.

4. Precautions when using the yoga column: Do not roll back and forth too fast, slow down and roll back and forth slowly; keep breathing normally during the movement and do not hold your breath. It is wrong to think that the more painful it is, the more effective it is, because excessive pain will induce protective muscle contraction, which will reduce the effect. Do it according to your ability. It is fine to feel pressure or slight pain in the muscles. You can use your hands and one lower limb for support to reduce the pressure. There is no need to put your whole body weight on the foam roller and feel the "heart-wrenching" pain. For sore spots, what you should do is stay still and press; that is, stay at this point and apply slight pressure instead of rolling back and forth. Relax each part for about 1 to 2 minutes, and take a short break after each 30-second rolling.
