We hear about the core and the need for strengthening it. Most people also have the desire to have a toned, strengthened and flat abdominal region. But did you know Yoga has some exercises that will literally crush the bulge?
There are specific poses, that target excess weight in the abdomen and coupled with a customized diet, those seeking abdominal weight loss would find success in using these yoga exercises.
-The Sun Salutations:
These are a combination of poses that serve as a warm up-routine for a Yoga session or class. Due to the forward and backward bending motions involved, after performing a few to several rounds on a daily basis, you are bound to notice a marked loss of weight in you abdominal area and the added bonus of muscular tone.
-The Bow Pose:
This simple pose involves laying flat on your belly and grabbing your ankles with both arms while simultaneously lifting your head up high. When performed correctly, you should be resting on your abdomen. Needless to say, it is a pose commonly recommended for weight loss and the prevention and correction of chronic constipation.
-The Peacock Pose:
This is slightly more challenging. The objective is to balance your abdomen on your conjoined elbows while simultaneously raising your legs and head of the floor. Naturally, merely attempting it speeds up abdominal weight loss and detoxification of the visceral organs and the preparatory stage could suffice as the actual execution of the pose till the mastery of it is achieved.
Of Course there are a few other poses that could be quite useful for toning the abs such as the Shoulder Stand, the Plough, Wheel, Crow Poses, as a matter of fact, one benefit of Yoga is it never exercises just one isolated muscle, when doing one pose, for most, You will be working muscles in the entire body as a whole.
In addition, keeping in line with my previous article for the need of a cleaner colon as the first step to abdominal weight loss or tone, these poses are excellent for detoxifying the body while simultaneously exercising the muscles of the abdominal region.
Personally I include other basic calisthenics like the Hindu-Push Ups, the use of the Ab-wheel, windmills etc. to offer a bit of variety occasionally, however that’s just on occasion, the afore mentioned Yoga Poses are excellent into themselves for exercising the Abdominal region thoroughly.
So empower yourself with these tips and information to achieve your goal for weight loss. Lose that gut starting today.
