For people who want to adjust their figure without resorting to methods of plastic surgery, it is very important to choose a set of exercises that will be not only effective, but also quite simple to perform. Among many types of physical activity, bodyflex exercises occupy a special place, which are aimed at increasing the amount of oxygen in the body, which leads to the natural burning of subcutaneous fat. This system is especially fond of women who have recently become mothers, and whose figure has changed greatly as a result of this. Bodyflex classes take about 15 minutes a day, which even the busiest person can afford.
Especially loved by the newly minted bodyflex moms are exercises for the abdomen, which they easily perform in their free time from caring for a child. It is worth remembering that even for conducting classes using this technique, there are some limitations. So a strict contraindication to bodyflex is pregnancy of any period, some chronic diseases and medications. Classes on this system should be treated with the same seriousness as the trip to the fitness center.
In order to correctly perform bodyflex exercises, it is necessary to master the breathing technique using the abdomen. Initially, all children breathe in this way, but then, as they grow older, they switch to chest breathing. With age, a person begins to use in this process only 20% of the total volume of his lungs. Even in ancient times, people were treated with deep diaphragm breathing, which helps to naturally saturate cells with oxygen, increase lung capacity and cleanse the body of harmful substances.
Proper breathing, on which all bodyflex exercises are based, takes place in several stages. First you need to exhale as much as possible all the air from the lungs, squeezing the lips with a tube. Then there is a sharp breath through the nose, which continues until there is a feeling of fullness inside the lungs. This stage is replaced by a sharp exhalation, which should occur due to the expulsion of air using the diaphragm. This is accompanied by the sound “Groin!”, Indicating that everything is done, right. At the penultimate stage, you need to hold out as long as possible without breathing. In this case, it is necessary to tilt the head and slowly pull the stomach into itself until you feel that it is sticking to the ribs. At this moment, the abdominal muscles are being trained intensively, as well as a massage of the internal organs. When you do not have the strength to hold your breath, you need to sharply breathe air into yourself. In this case, a sound resembling a sob will be heard. Such breathing is the basis for any bodyflex exercise included in the basic set or advanced.
In order to strengthen the abs, it is necessary to lie on your back, straighten your legs, and then bend them at the knees. The distance between the feet should be approximately equal to 35 cm. Next, you need to stretch your arms up and perform a breathing exercise. Further, the rib cage rises with the shoulders, but the head remains on the floor and leans back. As if grabbing hands for air, you need to tear the blades as far as possible from the floor, then slowly lower yourself and repeat this another 3 times.
In addition to helping burn fat, bodyflex exercises can also reduce your cravings for smoking. They have a beneficial effect on the entire body by increasing the access of oxygen to its cells. Today released a lot of manuals on the implementation of this complex. For beginners, it’s best to choose video tutorials where the trainer will show you a set of exercises and demonstrate proper breathing. From the first time, many may not be able to do everything correctly, but if you try in a couple of weeks, you can master this technique and see the first results.
