Wrong yoga will make legs thicker. Have you made a mistake in these postures?

Heard that “no squat, no hips”, someone began to squat, the result is no hips, legs thick Heard that “flat support to reduce the stomach”, someone started flat support, also said that can support more than 4 minutes, the result is not small stomach, low back pain I heard that “roll abdomen to practice vest line”, someone began to roll abdomen, and can quickly do dozens of, the result vest line did not come out, lumbar and cervical problems Most of the time, we think it’s just a movement, and it’s good to do the same as in the video

.

However, you think you’re doing the same thing

.

In fact, it’s just that you think the movement is almost the same, but it’s actually much worse

.

The sequence of muscle exercises and the correct power mode are not correct, and the results are completely different

.

Here’s a list of 10 postures we usually do to see if you’ve been shot! 1

.

Dog down [wrong version] waist collapse: beginners are easy to get used to waist collapse, because it is difficult to relax, so it may make the lumbar vertebrae compressed and unable to stretch

.

[correct practice] the spine, arms and body should be in a straight line as far as possible, and form an inverted “V” shape with the lower body

.

The center of gravity should be on the legs to avoid too much pressure on the wrists; tips: try not to bend the knees, if you have difficulties, you can slightly raise the heels, stretch the legs every time you exhale, and try to make the heels closer to the ground

Plate type [wrong version] waist collapse and hip warping: when beginners first do it, it’s easy for them to exert force on the waist and hip to support the whole body

If they can’t make the core muscle group exert force correctly, they will damage the lumbar spine

.

[correct practice] ① sink your shoulders, open your hands and fingers, and support to the ground forcefully, keeping your arms perpendicular to the ground; ② tighten your abdominal muscles, keep your cervical spine, back, waist, buttocks and legs in a straight line, push your heels back, extend your head straight ahead, look at the ground with your eyes, and keep a steady breath
