3 Minutes Before Sleep: Simple Exercises To Slim Down Your Legs



Exercises can get boring and can also feel pointless at times. There are people who are addicted to working out who have to do it regularly but then there are the rest of us who prefer lazing around on the couch binge watching our favorite shows.

But we want the rewards of working out too so here’s a solution.

You can always do at home work outs that focus on the areas you want to tone.

The legs are an area that really need the work but are often ignored.

The legs need to be strong enough to support the body through all the walking and running we do and slim legs look amazing.

Exercising the legs will also help shed weight overall. Check out these simple exercises that you can do at home:

1. High-Knee

This exercises focuses on everything between and including your core muscles to your calf muscles.

It helps you stay more balanced and speeds up your metabolic activity.

To do a fairly basic high knee exercise, raise a leg, pull your knee into your chest and hold it there a few moments before bringing it down.

Do this with your other leg and keep repeating the movement. Keep your back straight throughout.

Once this becomes easy for you, you can try more complicated exercises.

2. Squats

A fairly common part of every workout, it is best to go for a deep squat if you wish to see great results.

It will be difficult to get your buttocks to go below your knees but it will be worth it.

They activate your glutes; make your ligaments stronger and your lower body more flexible.

These two exercises require you to stand and that can be a slight turn off.

But there are workouts you can do just before going to sleep, and maybe even in bed.

 If you’re going all out and doing all of these exercises, do the aforementioned two in the beginning.

3. Oblique leg raises

This exercise can make you stronger because it activates a variety of muscles. It doesn’t look hard but if you don’t do it right, you can injure yourself.

 Ensure that one of your sides is touching the floor, especially your lower body. Your body should be in a straight line.

Raise the leg on top at a 45 degree angle and bring it back down smoothly.

4. Inner thigh lifts

If you’re just trying to get toned legs, this is the right exercise for you. Lie down on your side with the leg at the bottom stretched out.

Cross the upper leg over it and let either the foot or the knee come into contact with the floor.

Don’t move your upper body and focus only on the inner thigh.

This exercise can be modified in a multitude of ways. You can raise the leg below while you are exhaling and bring it back to rest as you breathe in.

You can even rotate that leg while it is raised. But stay steady throughout so that you don’t injure yourself.

ONE MONTH BEFORE STROKE, YOUR BODY WILL SEND YOU THESE WARNING SIGNS – DON’T IGNORE THEM!

Stroke can occur when a poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.  It is the no.5 cause of death in America and the leading cause of disability. There are two types of stroke: ischemic, caused by narrowing or blockage in the arteries which leads to the brain, and hemorrhagic, caused by reduced blood flow. When the blood vessel that carries nutrients to the brain is ruptured by a clot or blocked, a part of the brain can’t get blood and oxygen that it needs to function and that consequently leads to cell death.  The brain is a complex organ that controls numerous functions in the body, so when a stroke occurs and there is reduced blood flow to a certain part of the brain, some part or parts of the body that the affected part of the brain controls are not able to function properly.

You Need A Kidney Cleanse. Here’s How To Flush Out Toxins From Your Kidneys

Image
The kidneys are the most important detoxifying organs in the body, and their role is to eliminate waste from the body through the urine. According to Dr. Victor Marchione: “Being kind to your kidneys is a vital part of maintaining overall good health. If you don’t eat a balanced diet, drink clean water, and cleanse your body of toxins that build up, it can negatively impact the function of the kidneys, liver, and other organs. Poor kidney health can also lead to kidney stones. Cleansing the kidneys is, in fact, a pretty simple process that doesn’t involve a large number of tools or ingredients. One of the easiest, yet best steps when it comes to a kidney cleanse is drinking plenty of purified water. This, of course, provides an effective flush.” A kidney cleanse is a beneficial method that improves the function of these organs, and thus prevent kidney infections, and other health issues.
