On her Instagram account, Japanese weight loss expert Tamayo Arya shared a quick but effective exercise that can turn a saggy belly into a flat, tight one in just a few weeks. The trick is to focus on tensing and stretching your back and stomach muscles and preventing more fat from accumulating in that area.
We have created a step-by-step guide for this exercise to help you achieve a flat stomach and one great advantage: a more relaxed back. Have a good workout!
Simple Exercises To Reduce Hanging Belly
Step 1
It is always a good idea to warm up and stretch before any type of exercise. After warming up, stand with your arms on your hips. You can use a yoga mat or stand on a mat to avoid hurting your feet.
Step 2
Place your hands on your hips for balance and spread your legs more than shoulder-width apart. Remember that each foot should point slightly.
Step 3
Put your hands on your knees and squat down. Now you will feel your thigh muscles working. Remember to execute each movement slowly and precisely, making sure to feel the tension in all of your muscles.
Step 4
It is at this stage that exercise reaches its core. Lean forward, turning your right shoulder to the left and inward. Your left shoulder should be back. You should feel the stretch in your thighs, waist, and back muscles.
Hold this position for 3 seconds and go back to the previous one.
Step 5
While in this position, it is a good idea to take a deep breath before returning to work.
Step 6
Repeat step 4 in the opposite direction: turn the left shoulder to the right and inward, the right shoulder should go back.
Results
For best results, do 2 sets of 10 repetitions of the exercise. And do not forget that it is always a good idea to combine it with a healthy diet.
This exercise also helps build flexibility, allows your back to rest, and tightens your stomach and thigh muscles.
