How to thin legs with elliptical machine without hurting knees?
Hello. In the gym, we often see people bending down to step on the elliptical machine, and some people get numb when they step on the elliptical machine for a while. These are the reasons for the wrong posture! Many people think that it doesn't matter if the posture is wrong, as long as the exercise effect is achieved. This is a big misunderstanding.

In fact, straightening on the elliptical machine can not only exercise the abdomen, but also exercise the muscles of the upper body and consume more fat. The reason why the toes are numb is probably that the bodybuilder focuses on the toes, which leads to the toes being too hard. Therefore, the focus of exercise should be shifted to the heel, so that the large muscle groups can exert their full strength, which can greatly extend the exercise time and have more exercise effects. Moreover, bad posture will increase the risk of sports injury, toe numbness and ineffective sports.

1, not high speed. Although the sports injury of elliptical machine is very small (much smaller than running), it is not completely absent. Low resistance and high speed will cause excessive and inefficient wear of knee joints, just like high-speed idling of cars, which will cause extremely high sports injuries; The inertia of the huge elliptical machine flywheel will also bring reaction to the knee joint, and stepping on it for a long time will inevitably bring knee discomfort.

2. Don't push with one leg. Individual athletes may be used to exerting force on one leg while the other leg is relatively small, so they should consciously correct their anti-habits on the elliptical machine, or even deliberately correct their own anti-habits, so as not to cause imbalance and serious sports injuries to their bodies after long-term exercise.

Step on the whole foot. Both the sole of the foot and the heel are stepped on the pedal. Keeping the pedal state whether stepping or returning can affect more muscle groups, reduce sports injuries, and even have a shaping effect, making the calves and thighs more slender.

4, the soles of the feet as far as possible. The distance between the lateral pedals of the flywheel rear-mounted model is large, and the feet are far apart when pedaling, which is slightly different from normal pedaling and walking. In order to achieve a more natural and reasonable exercise effect, when stepping on the elliptical machine, please tilt your legs inward as much as possible, and the center of gravity of your hips, waist and upper limbs will move with your strength to avoid eversion and eversion into incorrect pedaling posture. I wish you all the best, health, happiness and happiness. Please adopt it. Thank you.
