Lose Weight Without Dieting Or Tiring Yourself Out

[bishoujo 0]

This topic will be useful for lazy people (like me!) who do not like jogging, sports, working out in the gym and love eating. The following methods encourage you to make little movements that promote activity in your body daily and regularly without you having to sweat it out. Bear in mind, however, that it will have little effect on obese people and anyone who wants to lose a lot of weight quickly.

 

Laugh aloud for 100 times daily. You will burn as much calories as rowing a canoe for 10 minutes would.

 

Breathe deeply with your abdomen muscles: Take in deep breaths using your abdominal muscles. When you take in air, stick your abdomen out, and when you expire air, constrict your abdominal muscle (the opposite but usual way of breathing is the other way round, where your abdomen constricts when you breathe in and relaxes when you breathe out. If you are aiming to lose weight, use your abdomen muscles!) Persist for 10 to 15 seconds each time, which means 4 times in a minute.

Get as much sleep as possible: Research from America has shown that women who sleep less than 5 hours daily put on weight more easily. (I'm not sure if this applies to men, but the fat composition of men is different from that of women)

Simple Exercises to incorporate in your daily life:

 

1. Always choose the stairs instead of elevator or escalator. To have a firm butt, arch your foot and walk on tip toes when climbing stairs.

 

2. Keep your head and chest upright. When you are sitting at your office desk, remind yourself to stick your chest out and keep your abdomen in. You will be exercising your back and abdominal muscles and maintain a good posture.

 

3. Brisk walk. If you walk briskly for 30 minutes daily, you will be able to get rid of that annoying tummy effectively. Get a partner or dog to accompany you if you find it boring to walk alone. You can compete to make it fun.

 

4. Constrict the muscles in your butt. You can do this every day, as frequently as you like especially when you are sitting down. This will help to shape your butt.

 

5. If you take the bus, get down one or 2 stops earlier than your destination. In this way, you don't have to go out of your way to do any walking, and you save on bus fair.

 

6. Stand, not sit: For short distances on public transport, choose to stand so you can exercise your leg muscles.

 

7. If you have nothing to do over the weekends, go shopping or just meet your friends for a walk. Walk instead of drive.

 

 

The key is to always ensure your body is moving so you don't accumulate fats and you can burn some calories!
