Hips and midriff are the most common areas when it comes to weight problems both for men and women. For men, it’s the midriff which is more bothersome as fat gets accumulated around the waist in no time. For women, hip area is the most vulnerable as that’s where fat and cellulite accumulate first.These exercises can be performed any time and anywhere as they are easy and non-complicated. However, 10 minutes of warm up is mandatory before starting off.
Step – 1 Stand straight on the floor without bending the knees or back. Lift the left leg by bending the knee and swing the arms rhythmically with the right arm swinging forward when left leg is lifted. Try to touch the right elbow with the left knee and come back. Lift right leg immediately and touch the opposite elbow. 4 sets of 25 repetitions recommended.
Step – 2 Stand straight on the floor without bending the knees or back. Lift both the arms upwards looking up and stretch one of the legs backwards (without bending the knee) simultaneously to strain the midriff and hips. Come back, switch legs and repeat. 4 sets of 25 repetitions recommended.
Step – 3 Stand straight on the floor without bending the knees or back. Lift the left leg by bending the knee and simultaneously bend the opposite elbow and swing it forward in rhythm with the bent knee. Come back, switch legs and repeat by swinging the opposite elbow. 4 sets of 25 repetitions recommended.
Step – 4 Stand straight on the floor without bending the knees or back. Fold both the hands behind the neck; lift one of the legs by bending the knee sideways. Try to touch the right elbow with the right knee and come back. Lift left leg immediately and touch the right elbow. 4 sets of 25 repetitions on each side recommended.
All the above mentioned movements are more like dance movements and should be performed rhythmically. Playing dance music while performing this regimen is a good idea. For best results breathe in and breathe out rhythmically.
