Exercise 4
To perform the next exercise, you need to sit on the floor ( on the buttocks). Feet shoulder width apart straight in front of you. Hands rest on the floor , fingers parallel to the legs ( pointed forward). Exhale and tilt your head forward , touching your chin to your chest.
While inhaling, raise your head and take it back as far as possible , raising your whole body. So you change the position of your body to horizontal ( you get a kind of bridge). Support is carried out on the arms and legs , which should form right angles with the body.
Tighten all the muscles ( for a few seconds). Hold this position , and as you exhale, return to the starting position ( sitting), pressing your chin to your chest.
Exercise 5
Effective Tibetan Exercises
Starting position - "bar", now arch your back. Arms and legs are slightly wider apart ( more than shoulder width). You should not touch your knees to the floor. To perform this exercise correctly, you must tilt your head back and breathe.
Inhale as you lift your hips up to form an angle with your body. Lower your head to your chest and try not to bend your legs , they should remain straight ( just like your back and arms).
As you exhale, return to the starting position. Breathing in this exercise is the same as in the previous ones.
Only here you may need a little more time to get used to inhaling during the bending of the body ( inhale for effort) and exhaling during the return to the starting position.
But when you get it right , you can begin to tighten your muscles and hold this body position for a few seconds.
Do not forget that although all these exercises are very effective , they must be performed every day in order to achieve a result.
How to make the exercises more effective?
If you want to get the maximum effect from all these exercises, gradually increase the number of repetitions when performing them.
In the first week of classes, you can do 3 repetitions , in the second - 5 , in the third - 7 , and so on up to 21 times ( by week 10).
If you miss your workout in any , it is recommended to return to the previous number of repetitions. It is better to perform these effective exercises in the morning , on an empty stomach.
Just do not overwork yourself , do not get very tired. After completing the entire complex, it’s good to rest a little and relax the body in a prone position.
