Want to lose weight but too lazy to exercise? 5 tips for lazy girls to learn how to lose weight without realizing it

Many people regard the new year as a new starting point. In particular, they would like to make positive wishes at the beginning of the year to live a healthier life, or to develop regular exercise...but afterwards it is difficult to generate enough motivation to achieve it. Roger Frampton is a model and a fitness trainer. His TEDx Talk segment "Why Sitting Down Destroys You" has over 2 million views on YouTube. Below he will share his experience and teach you how to achieve the biggest change with the least effort. Girls who want to lose weight but are too lazy to move can easily develop good weight loss habits by learning these five tips.

1. Don’t sit if you can stand

There are about 300 joints and 800 muscles in the human body. Sitting for long periods of time can cause our spine to repeatedly freeze in a bent state. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose a standing position when commuting, try to hold a meeting while standing, or drink while standing at the bar on Friday night!

2. Squat like a three-year-old

The "squatting" posture is actually the most relaxing resting position for humans. Unfortunately, around the age of 4, humans begin to become aware of the existence of chairs, and then gradually become dependent on them, seeing them as the only choice for resting. Soon after, humans lose their innate ability to squat.

"Squatting" has many benefits. Spending three minutes a day doing deep squats (when squatting, the heels must be in contact with the floor, the toes are facing forward, and the knees should be wider than the feet) can not only keep our hips flexible, but also improve the digestive system and help defecation. You can start squatting in shoes with heels, which will make it easier to get started than doing it barefoot.

3. Make use of free outdoor playgrounds

By the age of 75, about two-thirds of people will suffer from chronic diseases and may even rely on medication to maintain their lives. However, some diseases are preventable. London is a city with many free outdoor sports fields, providing various equipment such as horizontal bars and parallel bars, but these sports facilities may not be easy to find. We especially recommend the sports venues hidden in Primrose Hill, Kennington and Maida Vale. Why not take advantage of the weekend to go to these places with a few friends to exercise!

4. Do stretching exercises in bed

Sitting for long periods of time reduces the secretion of enzymes that burn fat, and can deprive you of the opportunity to easily lose excess weight. The best thing about a bed is that it is super comfortable and is something you can always have at hand whether you are at home or traveling. In addition to sleeping in it, you can also do stretching exercises in it. First, sit in the middle of the bed, then spread your legs as wide as possible and hold them there, imagining that your whole body is about to be torn apart. Spending a few minutes every night doing this stretching exercise in the comfort of your bed can help your health. It is a savior for lazy people!

5. Do stretching exercises while watching TV

Are you planning on watching any TV series this year? If so, where do you plan to watch it? Most people are used to lying on the sofa and watching TV shows lazily, but maintaining the same posture for a long time can easily put pressure on the vertebrae, causing spinal curvature and reducing the breathing space of the lungs. You might want to try floor stretching exercises. In addition to relieving the tightness and soreness that has accumulated in your body over the past year, you can also distract yourself by watching your favorite shows. It is a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

Try the following:

Sit down and cross your legs: This is the most basic movement in yoga classes and it is easy for children to learn. Don’t forget to alternate your legs.

Leg stretch: Sit on the floor and place your legs in front of you, as wide as possible. If you feel like you're about to fall backwards, stack some books behind you to make it easier.

Crocodile pose: Lie face down with your hands on the floor at your chest, support your upper body with your elbows, and imagine yourself as a sphinx.
