Super sexy "butt dance" made her lose 6.8 kg in a week

Following "Gangnam Style" and "Harlem Shake", another super sexy dance move "twerking" is now popular and has set off a new wave in the entertainment industry. Recently, Australian rapper Iggy Azalea also claimed that she lost 15 pounds, equivalent to 6.8 kilograms, in one week by twerking!

Female singer performs "buttocks dance" to boldly release her beautiful buttocks

The new dance step "twerking" has a great origin, as it has even been included in the Oxford Dictionary. It refers to a dance derived from striptease, in which the buttocks are circled and twisted up and down, which looks very sexually suggestive. The reason why it became a trend is thanks to the American funny little queen Miley Cyrus who is always in the spotlight, who boldly released her beautiful buttocks and danced a sexy butt-sticking dance with singer Robin at the MTV Video Music Awards. Their bold movements caused an uproar in the outside world.

Different from the general hip dance or twerking dance, in addition to twisting the hips, the "hip dance" also involves bending down at the waist, with the focus on the movement of the hips and waist. Some people on the Internet are not satisfied with just imitating hip twerking while standing, and some even twerk while standing upside down. According to the Daily Mail, Iggy Azalea said in an interview that the motivation behind choosing this dance move to lose weight was actually for her latest song Mo Bounce. Although the music video only lasts a few seconds, the 26-year-old is seen swinging her hips vigorously.

Lose 6.8 kg in one week and completely change your body shape

Iggy Azalea did not just do the "butt-sticking dance" casually. She consulted professionals beforehand and gained valuable experience. She also claimed that she rehearsed countless times in the short video and completely changed her body shape. And in one week, you can lose 15 pounds, which is equivalent to 6.8 kilograms. "I've never felt so flexible, and I can incorporate yoga moves into my hip-jumping dance."

Foreign doctors suggest that you should not lose weight too fast to avoid side effects

Generally speaking, doctors recommend losing 2 pounds per week, equivalent to 0.9 kilograms, which is a relatively healthy weight loss. It's unbelievable for a person to lose 15 pounds in a week, says Dr. Todd Sontag, a family physician at Orlando Health Physicians Associates. It's probably not sustainable or effective in the long term. Because weight loss is different from fat loss, when you first try a lifestyle change like this, you won't just lose fat in the first week; much or even most of the weight you lose will be water weight.

He warned that such rapid weight loss could be difficult for dieters, both mentally and physically. First, the dieter will face the inevitable hurdle of realizing that this weight loss will not last forever. He said it's impossible for anyone to lose 15 pounds every week endlessly. Second, such rapid weight loss increases the risk of side effects, such as gallstones or electrolyte imbalances.

You can safely dance the hip-stick dance by combining core muscle stability training

Physical therapist Lin Yanru reminds that the hip-sticking dance involves repeated and rapid rotation of the pelvis forward and backward and flexion and extension of the lumbar spine. Good core muscles are needed to stabilize the spine and pelvis to avoid spinal instability or excessive movement during the process. You can start with a slower speed and a smaller amplitude, and then start to speed up when there is no discomfort. You can also combine it with core muscle stability training to dance the hip-sticking dance more safely. If you already have lower back pain or iliosacral joint pain, you must be especially careful when performing it to avoid causing pain.
