Yoga to Lose Belly Fat
Health & Fitness | 98.4MB
An erroneous lifestyle, unhealthy eating habits, lack of exercise, and high stress levels – all of these give rise to a flabby tummy.
The wider your abdomen, the higher is the level of risk. And, there are no shortcuts to get rid of abdominal fat. Proper diet, combined with a good fitness routine, can definitely help you reduce belly fat to a large extent.
This is where yoga comes into play. It not only helps decrease abdominal fat, but also allows you to control your body and mind like never before!
A regular practice can play an important role in helping you achieve your desired flat belly; it can help you lose weight and to tone from head to toe, including your abdominal area. Yoga boosts weight loss in a more holistic way than you might think.
To better understand this matter, it's important to understand how the body burns fat, in general. Although we can work certain body parts for toning and strengthening (like our arms, legs, abs, or glutes, for example), there is no research-proven way to blast more fat cells in one specific area than in any other. And while extra pounds around the belly are often the easiest weight to gain, they can also be some of the hardest to shed.
That being said, a diet and exercise plan that allows you to lose weight all over will almost certainly benefit your flat belly goal. (To shed pounds consistently, remember that the key is to burn more calories than you take in every day.) And that's good news, because excess fat around the abdominal area has been shown to raise the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer.
Yoga can be an important part of your belly-shrinking plan, regardless of whether you've ever practiced before. Not only does it burn calories and help tone your trouble spots, but research also shows that it has the power to alter you’re eating patterns, your sleep habits, and your mood -- all things that will affect how much weight you carry on your waistline, and how quickly you can burn it off.
Yoga, like all forms of exercise, burns calories -- some forms more than others. A fast-paced, vigorous style of yoga, like Vinyasa or Ashtanga, will burn more fat and calories, for example, than a slow, restorative class.
