Sedentary people often complain that their buttocks and thighs are thick, which actually has a lot to do with sitting posture. The correct sitting posture should be standing on your back and abdomen, not leaning on the chair surface. If you lean back, your back muscles will be stretched, which will easily lead to low back pain for a long time. On the contrary, if you lie on your back and tuck in your abdomen, you can not only prevent abdominal fat accumulation, but also stretch your back muscles, which will help you concentrate on your work. A sedentary person can put a piece of paper between his knees. Many people always cross their legs from time to time when sitting, which is not only easy to hunch over, but also hinders blood circulation. Restrain yourself with such a small piece of paper and stick your legs for a while.
Massage stovepipe method
Massage is the most direct and effective way to shape the legs. It can stimulate acupuncture points on the legs, promote blood and lymphatic circulation, expel toxins, eliminate edema, and regulate hormone secretion by stimulating important acupuncture points distributed on the legs. You can get more massage by soaking your feet at night.
Magic ball stovepipe method
While eliminating leg edema, we should also exercise calf muscles. A simple way, two billiard balls can exercise your leg muscles at any time. Whether you are sitting at your desk or sitting on the sofa at home, you can put these two fitness balls on your feet and use the strength of your legs to drive them to slide back and forth. For people with thick calves, low-intensity exercise is the best way to exercise. Exercise calf muscles and massage the soles of your feet at the same time. And because the legs have to move back and forth, there is no chance to cross legs again.
Lift your heels.
If you want to strengthen the calf muscles and lose excess fat, you just need to lift your heel, stand on tiptoe for a few seconds, and then return to your original position. Repeat this action several times a day, which is simple and doesn't take much time. Besides stovepipe, you can also exercise the flexibility of your feet.
One minute stovepipe exercise before going to bed.
Lie flat on the bed with your legs at a 45-degree angle and your knees bent in the air.
The left leg bends to the maximum, and the right leg tries its best to climb up. The foot surface is always in a hook state, which is conducive to stretching the muscle lines that recede slightly, and the legs are always clamped, which is conducive to pulling the muscle lines on the inner thigh. Put down your right leg and bend it as much as possible, while your left leg tries to climb up. Clamp your legs and repeat the action just now.
