The simple action of sitting and tiptoeing to your toes can really help you consume energy, improve lipid balance and blood sugar throughout the body, while enhancing metabolism.
This exercise is not tired or causes other adverse reactions, such as cramps, joint pain or muscle aches.
The reason for sitting on the toes can achieve this result is mainly because of triggling soleus muscles in the calf. Although only 1% of body weight, Soleus muscles are one of the main muscles that help people go upright.
Compared to other muscles, this muscle depends less on glycogen that depends more on fat and sugar to get energy. Therefore, when you exercise properly, the ability to promote metabolism will increase.
The stimulation of Soleus muscles also increases the process of oxygen in the body. In other words, tiptoe can also improve the body's metabolism and help you lose weight easier.
Besides, lifting the heel will stimulate the movement of the leg, which can promote blood circulation and fight the risk of sitting for a long time.
