Bad habit 1: long-term inactivity

Urban white-collar workers who sit in the office all the year round are prone to poor blood circulation due to lack of exercise, which not only makes women's feet cold in winter, but also causes edema in their feet, making them look fat and wide.

Bad habit 2: swollen feet when sleeping

Ankle is one of the parts prone to edema. If we don't pay attention to it, fat and body waste will combine in this part to form orange peel tissue. It is very important to massage your feet properly when taking a bath or soaking your feet, so that the edema will last until the next day.

Bad habit 3: Walk by pulling your heels.

Many people are used to pulling their heels when walking, so they can't make full use of their foot muscles. After a long time, waste will accumulate more easily, leading to the formation of orange peel tissue on the ankle. Therefore, when walking, please deliberately raise your feet and form a habit.

Bad habit 4: basically don't take the stairs

The action of climbing stairs is an excellent opportunity to exercise the muscles around the ankle, which can fully exercise every muscle of the ankle. I suggest that if you have the opportunity and time, don't take the elevator, you can exercise your ankles and lose weight.

Bad habit 5: sedentary

Especially when driving by subway, many people can't wait to sit down as soon as they see a vacancy. In fact, standing can move to the ankle position in all directions, so that the ankle muscles are always in motion and promote blood circulation in this position. By exercising the muscles around your ankles and calves, you can have tight legs and metabolize body waste faster.

Bad habit 6: love to cross your legs

Many people are used to crossing their legs when sitting. But this will actually hinder the blood and lymphatic circulation in the legs, leading to edema in the lower body. Over time, the veins of the lower limbs will gradually protrude, which will seriously affect the circulation of the lower body, leading to fat thickening and even muscle stiffness.

Methods to prevent calf thickening:

Stand up straight, with one leg back as far as possible, the sole of your foot on the ground, the leg behind you kept straight, the front leg bent and upright. Try to pull your arm back. Hold on for 8- 12 seconds, change legs and do it again.

Or stand up straight, lift one leg, grab the shoes with your hands and get as close to your hips as possible. Keep your hips balanced, your knees together, and your upright legs slightly bent. If you have trouble keeping your balance, you can hold the wall or chair. Hold on for 8- 12 seconds, change legs and do it again.

Extended data:

In fact, running is a very good means of fitness, and more running is of great help to people's whole body blood circulation and respiratory system. As for why some people feel their calves thicken after running, it may be related to the initial running posture. When running, if the forefoot touches the ground, the force is generally on the calf, which will lead to the increase of calf muscles after a long time.

Then it may be related to the diet after exercise. Some people feel that exercise consumes a lot after running, and then they will replenish their energy. Once they let their guard down, they will easily eat more than before. In addition, there is another situation that running mainly exercises the large muscle groups of the lower limbs, which will increase the social muscle groups of the legs, but in fact, if you measure the waist circumference, you will find that the waist circumference is small and the increased muscles are healthy.

Therefore, if you want to avoid running, you should pay more attention to your running posture and don't relax after running.
