The most effective exercises for thin waist at home

For most women, gym classes are boring and tedious. Many of them believe that you can safely do without training.

In fact, exercise for the waist is very important, because diets alone will not be able to get rid of excess volume. So, ladies, you will still have to get out of the comfort environment and start practicing regularly.

What ideally should be waist

There is simply no universal way to understand whether your waist is normal. Different ways give completely different meanings. Surely among your friends there are fat thin.

Do not be surprised, many women, even without extra pounds, waist circumference is far from ideal. Let's see what should be the perfect waist. Pick up the usual centimeter tape and measure the circumference of your waist.

If it is more than 75 cm - this is the reason to go to the gym.

Moreover, this method of diagnosis does not depend on your height, if there is an excess of this indicator, then take urgent measures.

Of course, the size of the waist depends on heredity and body type. The ideal option is an hourglass. Such women usually do not worry because of the volume of the buttocks or thighs.

Because against the background of "aspen" waist, they always look attractive. Slightly less lucky with a waist “pear”, and even less apple.

In the first type, the waist is thin enough, and fat is deposited only on the hips and bottom. But in the "apple" the fat layer is concentrated in the waist, this type is more difficult to "fight" with a swollen waist, big tummy and thick sides.

Run 15 times;

The swing of movement is minimal, the main thing is to feel how the side of the slope is reduced, and the side opposite to the slope is drawn out. If you experience discomfort, then reduce the amplitude of movements. Run 25 times.

Seven exercises against problem areas

  1. Lie on your back exactly, under the buttocks put a terry towel folded in several layers. Hands should be under the neck, and legs bent at the knees and placed on the floor. Start: direct both elbows forward and, without sudden movements, tear off the shoulders and shoulder blades from the surface. Drop the cups on the chest, look at the navel. Lower your head and shoulders back to the floor. Now lift both legs, pull your knees towards your chest. Do not lower the feet; they will be higher than the knees when lifting the legs.

Do the exercise 10 times with alternating legs;

Three exercises for a graceful waist, performed on the couch

  1. Up down. Sit with your legs on the sofa so that there is a small space behind you. Then bend both legs at the knees and stretch your arms forward, round your back a little. Begin to go back smoothly when you touch the back surface, immediately return to its original position. If you can not sit down smoothly, then first stretch your legs. It does not help, then lean on your hand a little;
  2. Raising the body lying. Lie on the sofa with your stomach so that your hips are on the sofa, and your body is hanging over the floor, that is, hanging in the air. Ask the household to hold your legs so that they do not rise during the exercise. Keep better in the knees. Hands should be crossed either on the chest or behind the head. Shoulder blades, shoulders deploy. Without rounding the back, lower the torso down, chest to the floor. Now it is necessary to raise the body, if possible high, chin up. At the same time, the buttocks and back tighten. Perform 4 sets of 6;
  3. Lifting both legs while sitting. Sit on the edge of the couch. Feet lower to the floor, at the same time spread them as far as possible. Put your hands on the edge of the seat, bend your leg in the knee and pull it to the ribs. Immediately turn the torso in the direction of the bent leg, slightly bend over to it with the upper half of the abdominals. Go back to the original position and do the same, but in a different direction. Just make four sets, tilts of 10 for each leg.

The three best exercises for aspen waist and a flat stomach

A bit of theory: the abdominal muscles consist of 4 parts, they stretch from the bottom of the chest to the lower abdomen, the muscles of our waist are the oblique abdominal muscles, which begin to work during tilts in different directions and when turning left and right.

If you train these muscles regularly, then believe me, you will definitely have a thin waist and a relief tummy.

Turns in different directions, standing on the floor

This exercise perfectly strengthens the oblique abdominal muscles. Do it regularly and after a while you will see that your waist has become thinner.

The original stand: stand up straight, legs apart shoulder-width apart. In your hands, take a stick, the length of which is 1 meter (if there is no such, you can use a ski or ordinary mop). Put her head on her neck.

Make turns in different directions, try to turn the body to the maximum, to feel the oblique muscles of the abdomen stretching. Turn to each side for less than 20 times, rest for a minute and continue the exercise, without slowing down the pace, make three approaches.

The main thing is to keep your back straight and keep looking forward only (do not lower your head). All movements are concentrated and measured.

Raising the torso in the usual chair

All movements are aimed at strengthening the abdominal muscles, or rather its upper part. For classes you will need a regular chair. Initial stand: sit on a chair, but not as usual, but sideways.

Feet need to cling to any suitable surface (it can be a bed, sofa, etc.). If your hands are crossed on the chest, then the exercise will be easier to do, remove them by the head, then complicate your task.

Lower the torso back, then return to the starting position. Perform ten ascents, rest, and continue at the same pace, so 3 times. The main thing is not to lower the body too low, and try to concentrate on the abdominal muscles in order to feel how they "work".

Information for beginners: each exercise, the first month of classes, perform in 2 sets, and the next month, add 1 approach.

Lift both legs on the floor

These movements are aimed at elaborating the abdominals, or rather its lower part. Starting position: lay down on the floor, straighten your legs completely, arms along the body. Now lift your legs straight up (at a 90º angle), then return to the starting position.

If you raise your legs at such an angle, you can bend them a little at the knees. It is necessary to make ten lifts, then rest for a minute, and continue at the same pace, only 3 times. The main thing is not to hurry, raise and lower your legs smoothly.

Does a hoop help for a thin waist and a flat stomach?

Gymnastic hoop - an excellent trainer for the waist. Scrolling through the hoop, you train a large group of muscles, do a massage, which greatly improves circulation, so losing weight is at an accelerated pace. And the hoop can destroy fat, which is derived through the circulatory and lymphatic systems.

True, all these miracles will begin only if you pick the hoop correctly. Of course, the heavier it is, the higher the load will be, but you should not start classes with a metal hoop.

If you are not used to it, it will be hard for you to turn it around for 60 minutes, and if it takes less than an hour to work through the waist with a hoop, then there will be no changes.

Therefore, do not think and take the usual plastic hoop, and when you get used to it, you can take the iron.

It is better not to use new-fashioned spiked hoops. We do not argue that with such an object the load will be higher, but the effect is not only on the muscle group, but also on the spine itself, which is very harmful.

In addition, such gymnastic objects injure the back and sides (bruises appear). In order not to injure yourself instead of a heavy hoop, rotate two iron bars at the same time. Load get no less. But most importantly, try to twist the hoop correctly: do not bend your knees, work only with your torso.

Exercises that are best avoided at home if you want a thin waist

You are deeply mistaken if you think that the more you do exercises on your abdominal muscles, the thinner your waist circumference will become. In fact, the pumped muscles will make your waist even wider than before.

To prevent this from happening, try not to swing, but to lose weight, avoiding movements with a large amplitude and increasing the number of approaches.

For example, in a set of exercises for a press, when you are on your back and you want to raise your body to your knees, we advise you only to lift your back from the surface, you must do all the exercises 30 times in each set, and there should be a total of three.

When you occupy your back muscles and lateral abdominal muscles, lift your torso not directly, but take turns either to one knee or to another.

Tips for trainers and nutritionists

Nutritionists strongly recommend eliminating all sweets and fatty foods from your diet. Give the sausage, sausages, fried chicken to the enemy. Instead of these foods, lean on chicken white meat, dairy products, fresh cottage cheese, fish, cereals and legumes.

If the daily caloric content of 40% will be replenished from products containing protein, the process of losing weight will go much faster. Porridge leave in the morning, drink clean water, not less than 1.5 liters per day. Coffee, carbonated water, packaged juice is not for you.

At the same time, the fed fat alone cannot be removed. We'll have to do physical exercise. But to bring the dream of a thin waist and a flat stomach closer, not any exercise will do.

To achieve the desired effect will help the regular load on different muscle groups. Working only on a press, with a tummy, you will not be parted.

For those who do not want to do sports, coaches recommend everyday walks of 3 km at a fairly fast pace. Also, with surplus at the waist, yoga and pilates will be helpful.

All girls dream of a graceful waist and a flat stomach. Some gave it to nature, and someone has to work on this problem all his life. In many ways, the waist circumference is due to the type of figure and heredity, but this does not mean that it is impossible to achieve the ideal size. You can help effective exercises performed at home, plus proper nutrition.
