Do you want your legs to be smoother, tighter, and firmer? Then be sure to find time for this exercise. By the way, as a bonus, it also pumps up your abs!
Summertime is the period when we all begin to actively train and take care of our bodies. Of course, ideally, you need to go to the gym regularly and train intensively. But let’s be honest: only a few can do it. Therefore, it would be much more correct to introduce into your routine quick and easy exercises that are not very tiring and can be done at any time of the day. Their implementation is much more guaranteed to affect your figure in comparison with irregular, but more difficult classes in a fitness club!
We have already talked about passive stretching against the wall, which tightens the legs, and about the sitting Russian plank, thanks to which all the fitness divas of the world support the abdominal plane. Catch another life hack: a sitting exercise for beautiful hips.
- Sit with your back against the wall and straighten your legs
- Keep your hands on your chest – or, if it’s difficult at first, put them on the floor
- Start spreading your legs to the sides, simulating the process of walking
- Spread your legs as far as your flexibility allows. And then bring them back together and repeat the exercise.
- Engage in “sitting walking” first 2-3 minutes. Over time, you can increase the execution time to 5 minutes. The main thing is to follow the technique correctly so that all muscles are included in the work.
First of all, this exercise has a great effect on the legs – making them more toned and reducing the visibility of cellulite. Also, if you keep your hands near your chest, you can train the lower abdominal muscles well – which means getting rid of a hanging belly!
