Preparing for body flex: things to remember

If, after a thorough examination, the doctor gave you the green light to do gymnastics, find a comfortable place in your home where you will devote every day to classes.

Breathing technique – an important component of bodyflex

First of all, you need to develop proper breathing, which during gymnastics will direct oxygen directly to the cells with fat for its splitting. Therefore, at first, engage in the development of this technique, and then just do the exercises.

Belly breathing – an important part of the workout. It must be worked out before mastering gymnastics.

In bodyflex, diaphragmatic breathing is used, in which a person breathes from the stomach. It is easy to master this technique. First you need to stand in the pose of the "volleyball player", in which the legs, slightly bent at the knees, are shoulder-width apart, the body is tilted forward, and the palms are located on the lower limbs at a distance slightly above the knees. Next, the lips are pulled into a tube, and the air is slowly and deeply exhaled. Then a fresh portion of air is inhaled through the nose, filling the entire chest, after which it is strongly exhaled through the open mouth. Next, the mouth closes, and the stomach is retracted as much as possible. And finally, the whole body relaxes, and the air is drawn in in such a way that there is a feeling of filling the lungs.

The fingertips of both hands should touch each other. Next, do the diaphragmatic breathing technique, then press your fingers firmly against each other. Keep them in this position for 8 counts. Number of repetitions – 3 times.

3.    "Scissors" – this exercise is designed specifically to develop and strengthen the muscles of the lower abdomen.
