Practicing regular physical activity is really very important. Not just to keep your body fit or lose that extra pound. But it would also be one of the main tools that would allow you to stay healthy and prevent dangerous diseases. For example, it would help reduce blood pressure, cholesterol, strengthen bones and of course also act on excess adipose tissue. Let’s not underestimate the psychological aspect as well. In fact, regular physical activity could also relieve stress, anxiety and improve sleep. Of course, we must choose an appropriate sport, taking into account any pathologies and always followed by our trusted doctor.
Here’s how a simple towel could help strengthen our arms and firm our tummy without going to the gym
Each of us chooses physical activity based on their needs or problems. We can join the gym and be followed by an expert. Or decide to lose those excess pounds by taking long walks in the park or not taking the car and walking to the office. There are many ways to lose weight without necessarily spending money. Lazy people can also train at home, using common objects as tools. For example, bottles of water are perfect instead of weights and a stool can replace the classic gym step. In short, we can make do with what we find in the house.
Here, even a towel could help us. But let’s see how. Let’s start with an exercise that would help the arms. We spread our legs. We grab the two ends of the towel with our hands, which will remain taut. By exerting pressure, we raise the arms from the legs up to shoulder height. We return to the initial position. We perform the exercise 10 times.
Two more exercises
The second exercise we want to propose is really very simple. We raise our arms and grasp the ends of the towel with our hands. Now we bend the torso first on one side of the body and then on the other. We perform 2 sets of 15 pushups. The last exercise could help us firm up our tummy. Let’s lie on our backs on a mat. We raise our arms to the height of the ears and, keeping them well stretched, we grab the towel. Now we raise the torso to 90 degrees and return to the starting position. We always keep our legs stretched out on the floor. Here’s how a simple towel could help us stay fit.
