Sports, jeans and 3 more things that harm the waist
Yes, as you can see, not only food!
Sports and training
Believe it or not, grueling workouts can play a cruel joke on your waist: they simply add extra centimeters. For example, there are a number of exercises that are simply contraindicated for frequent use. These are side bends with dumbbells, bends in the bar, as well as any abdominal exercises with weights. And by the way, you don’t need to pump the press every day, you will only make it worse. The muscles will become denser and heavier, thereby adding extra inches. A couple of times a week is enough. Considering that when performing any workout, the abdominal muscles work in one way or another, arrange one circuit workout for the press once a week and do sports according to the usual pattern.
Tight jeans and tights
The cold is slowly but surely creeping up, which means that the time will soon come for jeans and nylon tights. If you like jeans with a low rise, then make sure that the belt does not dig too much into the sides. Putting on tight jeans in the morning, you admire your own waist, and in the evening you wonder: where did the protruding abdomen come from? And this is all the result of contraction and circulatory disorders (especially in a sitting position). It is better to choose jeans with a slightly high waist, in which both walk and sit comfortably!
Incorrect posture
Try to force yourself to go through the whole day with your head held high and your back straight – you will immediately notice the result. The abdominal muscles are tightened – after all, they are constantly in tension, the folds on the press are smoothed out. Thanks to this static tension, the abdominal muscles work on their own!
Coffee
Coffee retains water in the body, thereby contributing to puffiness and cellulite, hated by all girls. If you are very fond of coffee and cannot refuse it in any way, then limit yourself to one cup in the morning. But not 3-4 mugs for the whole day!
Fruits and vegetables
Not always and not all fruits and vegetables help us lose weight. For example, watermelon and grapes, beets and carrots contain a lot of sugar, and you need to be careful with the amount of their consumption. A raw food diet can lead to dysbiosis, bloating and other troubles with the gastrointestinal tract.
