Chang'e, please don't laugh at my magnanimity! 3 Yoga Tips to Reduce Belly Fat

During the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, people eat and drink to their heart's content without restraint. Be careful about gaining weight, especially abdominal obesity. It is really a headache to get rid of the fat. In particular, a "big belly" hides many high-risk diseases. Not only is it easy to suffer from coronary heart disease and diabetes, but it is also easier to lose confidence in the out-of-shape body. Now, let Teacher Sisii teach you how to use yoga to lose belly fat and add points to your health.

To eliminate abdominal obesity, practicing yoga more often can increase the consumption of core muscle fat and help you lose weight healthily. (Demonstration/Sisii Yoga Health Teacher)

Teacher Sisii, who has many years of experience in teaching yoga, pointed out that most people think that a "medium-sized" body shape is just a symbol of middle-aged obesity and at most affects the appearance. However, medical research shows that people with a "medium to wide" body shape are at high risk of developing metabolic syndrome and are very likely to develop cerebrovascular disease, heart disease, diabetes and hypertensive diseases, which is worthy of public attention.

Stay away from diseases and lose weight healthily starting from the abdomen

Especially for people with abdominal obesity, yoga can not only strengthen core muscles but also help them lose weight in a healthy way. This is mainly because the core muscles are located in the middle of the body, covering the abdomen, back and pelvis. Having strong core muscles can protect the spine, improve lower back pain, beautify the body lines and make people move agilely. It can be said to be the backbone of the human body.

For example, the "boat pose" can strengthen the core muscles, improve the back pain caused by long-term sitting of modern people, promote intestinal peristalsis, improve digestive function, and more importantly, tighten the lower abdomen; especially practicing hot yoga more often can reduce excess fat in the body, while also getting better muscle lines and a higher level of vitality.
