With the coming of winter, there is an obvious drop in temperature. The extremely cold weather makes people need to consume high-calorie foods, but at the same time, they are unwilling to go out for exercise because of the cold weather. In fact, you don’t necessarily have to do exercise outdoors. You can also exercise your body at home through some physical activities. Let’s take a closer look at what kind of exercise you can do at home. 1. Sit-ups Sit-ups can not only increase the elasticity of the abdominal muscles, but also protect the back, improve posture, and enhance the strength of the abdominal muscles. It is especially effective in eliminating belly fat and avoiding lower back pain. The correct way to do sit-ups: Lie on your back on the mat with your knees bent to about 90 degrees (straight-leg sit-ups will increase the burden on your back and easily cause damage to it). Place your feet flat on the ground. It is best not to fix your feet on flat ground (for example, have a partner hold your ankles with their hands), otherwise the thigh and hip flexors will join in the work, reducing the workload of the abdominal muscles. It is better to use a slower speed when performing it, just like a slow motion playback. When the abdominal muscles pull the body upward, you should exhale, which ensures that the deeper abdominal muscles are involved in the work at the same time. After lifting your body 10 to 20 cm off the ground, tighten your abdominal muscles and pause for a moment, then slowly lower your body back to its original position. 2. Rope skipping Rope skipping is the most practical way to deal with obesity, prevent dyslipidemia and hypertension. It is also a good aerobic exercise for endurance training. 3. Push-ups Doing push-ups can play an important role in developing balance and support skills. It can also improve the central nervous system, which is beneficial to the firmness of bones, flexibility of joints, strength of ligaments, thickness and elasticity of muscles. At the same time, it can accelerate blood circulation, increase lung capacity, promote growth and development, and improve athletic ability. The three exercise methods introduced in the article are relatively common and suitable for indoors. In addition, you can also cleverly use some props at home, such as a mineral water bottle filled with water, which can be used for some arm strength exercises. However, no matter what method of exercise is used, it is not recommended to do it immediately after a meal. The best time to exercise is half an hour to one hour after a meal. |
