The first yoga pose you can try is when you are lying down on your right side. Stretch your right hand out and make sure you are lying down in one straight line.
While doing this yoga pose, make sure that your abdominal muscles are tight and you are breathing through your rib cage. You can put your left hand on the floor for support.
In this yoga pose, raise both your legs up. Raise your left leg higher while your right leg is still off the floor. Slowly bring down the left leg and repeat it for a couple of counts. Don’t forget to do this on the other side of your body!
The Other Yoga Pose For Your Love Handles
Position your body in an L-shape for the next yoga pose. Raise your left leg up and turn your toes inwards. Raise it up again and bring it down while your left leg does not leave the floor.
After doing these two poses, make sure to stretch your legs and your hips. Just bring your leg towards the back and come back to the center.
Are Love Handles Bad?
Love handles are a common part of many people’s bodies. They are areas of excess fat that hang down over the hips and are typically associated with aging. Men and women are more likely to store fat in these areas, but children can also develop love handles.
Love handles are caused by fat retention beneath the skin, which is caused by eating more calories than you burn. A good way to get rid of love handles is to eat more healthy fats. They help you feel fuller for longer, and also reduce the risk of heart disease and inflammation.
You should consume oily fish and olive oil, which are high in omega-3 fatty acids and can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and boost your metabolism. In addition, you should include more nuts and seeds in your diet. These contain fiber and antioxidants, and they are easy to add to salads.
Reduce Calorie Intake?
You should also try reducing your calorie intake. A 500 calorie deficit each week is enough to reduce your love handles by a pound. To lose more fat without feeling hungry, you should limit your consumption of refined sugars.
Sugar has several negative effects on your body, including metabolic issues and the accumulation of fat. Some people even consider sugar as addictive as class A drugs.
Exercise is also important. A good yoga workout should work your entire body. The best way to reduce love handles is by increasing your physical activity, yoga and eating a healthier diet.
However, this process can be slow, so you should not expect to lose love handles overnight. Losing weight and getting rid of extra fat on your body can have a profound effect on your health and appearance.
