Many believe that in order to lose weight and tone the body, you have to spend many hours in the gym and follow strict diets. However, although physical activity and a good diet are essential for weight loss, there are exercises that can optimise the results.
This is the case of the Sakuma method, which takes its name from the personal trainer who created it, and promises to improve the posture and make us lose weight by devoting a few minutes a day to specific exercises.
Below, we explain how to put into practice the Sakuma method, from the execution of the exercise to the habits to be adopted to improve the results.
The Sakuma method teaches you how to use all the muscles of the body without doing a lot of effort, following a routine of five workouts focused on correcting posture and aligning the back, shoulders and hips. It also helps to sharpen the waist, strengthen the abdomen and improve breathing.
According to the personal trainer who created the method, posture correction is essential to facilitate loss of body fat. To get your body used to this, you need to do the routine of five minutes a day for two weeks. After the third week, you should leave a day of rest between the sessions.
1. Refine your abdomen, buttocks and back
Lie on your belly, your hands clasped behind your neck. Lift your upper body by leaving your abdomen flat on the floor, then lift your legs, without bending your knees. Keep your back bent and your legs are attached.
Then, without changing positions, cross your ankles and push with your feet. Repeat the exercise three times with the position for 10 seconds.
