This exercise technique has shown very good results. The undoubted plus of this complex is that you do not need any additional devices.

So are you ready to start? Then get ready and start working!

A set of physical exercises

Stretching the spine. This simple exercise will keep your spine flexible. Stand up straight and fold your hands behind your head into the "lock". Then bend over so that your elbows touch your knees. Return to starting position. Do 12 reps.

Deep squats. This exercise is the basis for a good workout of the quads of the thigh, buttocks and muscles - the flexors of the legs. Put your feet shoulder-width apart, put your hands on your belt. Sit down to the floor. Stand up and repeat the exercise 12 times.

Finger Rises. This exercise develops calf muscles... Put your feet slightly narrower than shoulder width apart. Get up high on your toes. Lower your heels to the floor. To increase the load, you can stand with your toes on a small elevation, for example, on a thick book, and so do the exercise.

Lying push-ups. Lean on the toes of outstretched straight legs and on two arms spaced shoulder-width apart. Lower your straight body to the floor by bending your arms, then return to the starting position, pushing up from the floor with your hands. Decrease or increase your arm width to target different muscle groups.

Lifting the body. Sit on your buttocks (preferably on a rug). Raise your straight legs and place them on a chair or sofa. Then lift your glutes and core as high as you can. Return to starting position.

Raising the legs. This exercise will work out the press, it is one of the main ones. Sit on the floor and stretch your legs straight in front of you. Put your hands on the floor behind the body. Quickly lift your straight legs up so that your body and legs form a V. Lower your legs.

A bike. This exercise will perfectly work all the abdominal muscles, it is very simple to perform. Lie on the floor, close your hands behind your head, raise your legs at a 45-degree angle to the floor, and slowly begin to simulate pedaling. When the left knee is on top, raise your torso and touch it with your right elbow. Then do the same with the right knee and left elbow.

These days, the problem of excess weight is so popular that there is probably no point in talking about it. Millions of women and men around the world struggle every day with extra centimeters, and this struggle does not always bring the desired results. Very often, having tried fasting days and all kinds of diets, women torture themselves with the same question, why do I eat very little and still not lose weight? Everything is very simple - reducing the diet will not be able to give the desired result without certain physical activity.

It is possible that the prospect of performing exercise for weight loss will not give you great joy. But don't forget that magic never happens. But if you are persistent and persistent, then desired result- a stunning figure - will not keep you waiting long.

Things to do?

Choosing one or another type of physical activity is necessary not only according to personal preferences. The choice of exercise will directly depend on which parts of the body you need to correct. For example, for those who do not have obvious signs of obesity, it is better to focus on jogging, gymnastics, shaping or light types of aerobics.

Where is the best place to do these physical exercises, you ask? Anywhere: in the gym, fitness center, in the pool and even at home, especially since mastering them is not so difficult. The main thing is by all means to agree sports activities with your doctor so that there are no contraindications for health reasons.

A few words about proper nutrition

Even if you unquestioningly and regularly do all the exercises, but do not limit yourself in food - positive result can not expect. Notice it comes it is about proper nutrition, and not about diets. Be sure to give up semi-finished products (even if after training you will be too lazy to cook dinner), do not eat fried food, ketchup, mayonnaise, alcohol. Certainly after intense workout You are supposed to have a hearty dinner, but you should not overeat on other days.

What you will need for classes:

A rug for doing exercises on the floor;
A narrow bench with a rather elastic upholstery;
Dumbbells;
Sports uniform, footwear and special gloves;

At home, it is best to do the exercises three times a week, with intervals between sessions on the same day. The ideal time for training is from 11.00 to 14.00 and from 18.00 to 20.00. Classes should be carried out regularly and exclusively with a positive attitude.

Remember that anyone a set of exercises for weight loss effective no more than 4 weeks, and then the body begins to adapt to stress. It is at this moment that you need to either increase the load, or change the set of exercises. Fulfill exercise for weight loss at home best not earlier than two hours before meals or before bedtime. Moreover, you should definitely like them. Otherwise, the result may turn out to be much more modest than you expect.

Each lesson must begin with a warm-up, and for this you need to remember school physical education lessons.

As we already said, there are special exercises for each problem area of ​​the body. We will talk about them now.

So, let's begin:

Slimming Exercises

The belly is one of the most problem areas for most of the fairer sex. Moreover, this problem can bother even those who have no reason to worry about their figure. The thing is that it is on the belly of a woman that the most fat accumulates.

First of all, I would like to warn you that you never do only exercises to lose weight on the abdomen. By themselves, they will not help you lose weight. In this case, you are threatened with strengthening and increasing muscles, as a result of which you may be completely without a waist.

To achieve maximum results, you should alternate between different ones, applying different amplitudes for this. Let's take a look at the most common of these exercises:

Twisting exercise

Its action is directed to the rectus muscles and it must be performed with a small amplitude. To do this, you must lie on the floor and firmly press your lower back to it. Bend your legs at the knees, point your elbows in different directions and put your hands behind your head. As you inhale, lift your head and shoulder blades off the floor, while lifting your chin up. As you exhale, return to the starting position.

Reverse twisting exercise

Like the previous one, this exercise is performed with a small amplitude. Lie on the floor, bend your knees, put your hands behind your head and spread your elbows to the sides. While inhaling, tear off the shoulder blades and head from the floor, while lifting the pelvis. As you exhale, take the starting position.

Raising the torso
