After age 50, belly fat is often difficult to improve because the body no longer reacts strongly to high-intensity exercises as before. Prolonged cycling or cardio exercises help burn calories, but have little impact on the deep core muscle group - the muscle system that plays a role in supporting the abdomen and maintaining a firm waistline.
If this internal support muscle system is not properly activated, excessive sweating is also difficult to bring about significant changes.
Morning exercises are considered effective because this is the time when the nervous system is alert and easily receives motor signals.
Just a few minutes of controlled exercise at the beginning of the day can help reactivate the stable muscles of the pelvis, ribs and abdominal muscles before having to sit or stand for a long time. These are factors that easily make the posture worse and the abdomen saggy.
In which, the 5-minute exercise focuses on activating deep core muscles, controlling breathing and adjusting posture. Gentle movements but creating tension at the right point, helping to improve waist circumference without putting pressure on joints or making the body tired.
5 movements include pressing heels when standing, lifting knees diagonally when standing, standing with belly flexions, hip flexions to stretch when standing, maintaining a straight standing posture combined with abdominal contractions.
Maintaining it regularly every morning not only helps reduce belly fat but also improves posture, increases body stability and helps you start the new day with a more flexible and gentle feeling.
