LEG RAISE AND ALTERNATE LEG RAISE
EXERCISE
It is absolutely true that the intensity of exercise is
directly proportional to exhaustion of calories in the body. However, it is not possible to step into high level
exercises right away because of few constraints of human body. The level of advancement should be compatible
with the body conditions and one should not leap stage to stage without gradual changeover. Tummy fats disorder
requires hard toil exercise to stimulate body hormones and to digest complex stored fats. The raise in
temperature also optimizes the conditions necessary to burn out calories. The leg raise exercise is slightly of
higher intensity to deal the tummy fats disorder but can be done easily.
Beginner level
As said earlier, high intensity exercises must be
approached gradually from lower stages. The leg raising exercise can be divided into beginner’s level and
advanced level. One should lie flat on his back with eyes looking at the ceiling and hands stretched on the
either side at the shoulder level. Legs should be folded such that your eyes can see your knees in raised
position. Hand must be steadfastly held with palms vacuuming the ground. With relaxed position, one leg should
be raised from ground to about hundred and ten degrees. Then leg should be rested with the same pace. Now, the
next leg should be subjected to same procedure. The rate of movement of each leg should be same that will
synchronize the strain given to the abdominal region. The lower part of the abdomen will get strained in this
exercise
Advanced level
This is not too tough to practice but it is a slightly
hard exercise. With the same posture of the beginner’s level, the two legs should be joined in v shape with both
the heels glued to each other. In this manner, legs should be raised together to about three or four feet above
the ground. There is a variation in capability between men and women doing this exercise. For women, it is
enough to raise the legs to a position which it is comfortable and possible. For men, it is possible to do the
lifting from ground to full ninety degrees with reference to ground. Doing this exercise for about ten minutes
will provide necessary strains for the lower abdomen resulting in burning up of fats in that
region.
Frequency
Frequency depends upon the extent of tummy fats
disorder. The duration can be from ten minutes to about half an hour for people with initial stages of tummy
fats and advanced stages respectively. The timing of exercise is not a constraint as it can be done in the
morning or any other convenient time.
Precautions
A towel or a cloth should be folded and kept behind the
neck while doing the exercise to support it on the ground without any strain. Energizing drinks can be taken in
before and after finishing the exercise. Clothing should be appropriate giving comfort to the body. Air
circulation should be present to evaporate sweat and give enough oxygen supply while doing the
exercise.
