Slim thighs without asking for help, do this for 8 minutes every day

With the arrival of spring, women who love beauty have put on short skirts, but the fat accumulated over the winter often makes their thighs bloated, like a sponge that has swelled up after soaking in water. If you want to get rid of the edema and burn fat to help your thighs get slimmer inch by inch, yoga teachers suggest that you can take 8 minutes every day to practice leg stretching and lifting movements. If you persist, you can shape your leg lines into beautiful shapes and give you long legs. (Video/Photographer Huang Zhiwen)

Are you still worried about fat legs? Yoga teacher Tang Youxin said that to beautify your leg lines and revive your beautiful legs, the only way is to move! Sitting like a couch potato all the time will only make your weight loss plan a distant dream. From now on, find a flat floor, put a cushion on it, and start practicing according to the following movements.

Thin thighs: side-lying leg lift plus cross-leg sitting

After lying on your right side, first support your right elbow under your body, stretch the distance from the ground, slightly pull in your stomach, lift your buttocks, and try to stretch your legs. Lift your left leg up when you inhale, and slowly put it down when you exhale. Keep the mantra of "lift up when you inhale, and lower your leg when you exhale" and do it 4 times. The fifth time, when you lift your foot, stop in the air and draw a circle forward 8 times, and then draw a circle backward 8 times to allow your thigh to get a good stretch and exercise.

Then slowly stand up from lying on your side, cross your legs, overlap your knees, stretch your hands outward to support the ground, lean your body forward slightly, and feel the thigh muscles tighten and stretch; then sit up straight, with your right foot facing forward, bend the sole of your left foot and place it on your right knee, arch your right foot, and use both hands to push your buttocks forward towards your right foot. Use your breathing to slowly relieve the fatigue of your left foot after drawing a circle. After adjusting, switch sides and do it again. Doing each side once counts as one set, and you can do 2 to 3 sets a day.

Don't make NG moves

Teacher Tang Youxin said that it takes about 8 minutes to complete one set, which can fully exercise the lower limb muscles. She reminded everyone that when doing the exercises, some people's shoulders will sink, which may hurt the shoulder blades. Remember to keep your elbows down and your shoulder blades up. In addition, when lifting your legs to draw circles, the pelvis tends to tilt forward and backward, and the side cannot be fully stretched. It is still necessary to keep the pelvis perpendicular to the floor, relax the toes, and face the instep forward to achieve the best effect.
