Summer is almost here and the costume test awaits us, but we are not yet ready, perhaps because we have a few extra pounds, right in the abdominal area.
This is a problem that many people have, and it comes more easily as we age.
In this article we explain the tips and tricks to have a flat stomach in a short time before the costume fitting and to feel comfortable at the sea.
If we really can’t bear to have a swollen belly because we have extra kilos, we must not despair because all is not lost. With a little effort and some suggestions, it is possible to lose weight in that part of the body that perhaps creates us more discomfort because it is clearly visible.
Here are the tips and tricks to get a flat stomach in no time before the costume fitting.
A flat stomach won’t be a good dream if you follow the right dietary and sports practices.
The right diet to deflate and flatten the belly
Smoothies for breakfast
For breakfast, smoothies are a great help. Make a watermelon, pineapple or banana smoothie every morning.
Watermelon is rich in arginine, an amino acid that contributes to the breakdown of abdominal fat.
L’pineapple it helps to drain and the banana, thanks to the potassium content, counteracts cellulite.
Drink green tea instead of coffee
Replacing coffee with green tea is important, as green tea contains antioxidants that reduce belly fat.
Drink lots of water
Drinking at least two liters of water a day helps hydrate the body and counteract water retention, which causes abdominal swelling.
Ginger
Ginger can help reduce abdominal bloating. We can add it to green tea, or prepare an infusion.
Alcohol and carbonated drinks
Eliminating alcohol and carbonated drinks is essential because in addition to sugars, they contain gases that inflate the abdomen.
Aerobic workouts
Cardio exercises are among the most effective for losing belly weight, combined with a half hour of running or cycling.
The abdominals
Do crunches to work your belly muscles.
Better still if practiced by lifting the legs and with the help of a pair of dumbbells of about three or four kilos each.
Lie on your back with your arms stretched back, and with your legs raised to form a 45 degree angle. Bring your arms to your chest by lifting your back off the mat and at the same time raise your legs so that they are perpendicular to the floor. Perform three sets of exercises with fifteen repetitions.
The tricks to perform
Poor posture shows a more swollen abdomen.
Remember to always stand straight, with the chest out, shoulders in the center and the head must center the spine.
By assuming a correct posture we will look slimmer and leaner.
