Common sense tells us that to lose weight it is necessary to work hard in the gym and that is why we try to choose the training or gym machine that allows us to burn the maximum number of calories in the shortest possible time.
What if we told you that reducing localized fat is possible with just four minutes of exercise a day ? Would you believe it if we told you that millions of people have already tried it and not only claim that it works, but that the results are maintained over time? Well, all this is possible thanks to the innovative method of the Japanese trainer Kenichi Sakuma , who is no longer considered simply a guru for top models and celebrities, but rather an international fitness coach.
The Sakuma method basically consists of a daily exercise routine with which we will not only lose weight but also correct our body posture. And all this by spending only five minutes a day for at least two weeks.
The specialist, Kenichi Sakuma, offers a series of exercises to achieve our goal of losing weight and getting a flat stomach in record time. These exercises are ideal for when we find ourselves stagnant, upset and also simply when we have eaten a meal that is too copious.
With the Sakuma method you will use the muscles of the torso properly , you will straighten the spine, you will keep the pelvis perpendicular to the floor and you will tone the trunk. With this you will get the 5 joints that support a lot of weight (neck, shoulders, pelvis, knee and ankles) to align and the muscles of the whole body will work in a balanced way. The result? You will get your basal metabolism to accelerate , since by having the whole body active you will spend more calories at rest, and this will result in a greater decrease in body fat with less movement.
If you dare to try it, these are the five key exercises that you should take note of:
1. Exercise to avoid fat accumulation
This exercise is recommended for when we have eaten too much and our blood glucose levels increase. According to the Kenichi Sakuma method, if we exercise the parts of our body that we do not use within an hour after eating, we can prevent the accumulation of fat in our body.
We will sit on our knees and then we will move our right buttock to the right. We will grab one of our shoulders and place them behind the head. And we must not forget that you must not tilt your head or torso down.
2. Stretching the body according to Sakuma
This exercise is special for when you have a hard time losing weight or when you enter a phase of stagnation. According to Sakuma, you will use muscles that you don’t use and that will stimulate your whole body. With practice, it will become easier for you to lose weight. Stretches the whole body. To do this, stand on your toes, cross your fingers and extend yourself as if someone were holding you up.
3. Squat
This is the continuation of the previous exercise. From the starting position, you should keep your arms straight and squat down. Repeat it between 15 and 20 times. It will also help you develop balance.
4. Exercise in a chair
According to the Sakuma method to lose weight, we can exercise this sport even in a chair. And these moves she recommends can help you exercise forgotten body parts and, over time, lose weight, since they are effective for energy expenditure. Do this exercise when you spend a lot of time in a chair or on the sofa. Sit in a chair with your back straight. Inhale and tuck in the abdomen. Hold the position for three seconds. Repeat 20 times.
5. To work the arms
This is the continuation of the previous exercise. What we have to do is turn the torso to the opposite side and forcefully raise the arms upwards, making a diagonal. We will repeat the exercise to the other side and we will do it 20 times.
