Sagging can occur throughout the body, including the face, this situation is produced by the loss or deterioration of collagen and elastin fibers in the skin, caused by lack of muscle definition, weight gain or hormonal changes typical of the age.
The solution to these problems lies mainly in exercises to combat sagging.
Exercises against sagging prevent and reduce the loss of muscle tone in the body and face, in addition to allowing you to strengthen and tone muscle groups in the abdomen, buttocks, legs and arms, which are the most affected by sagging.
Exercises to combat sagging throughout the body
For this reason, we present you some exercises against flaccidity, according to the fitness magazine.
1. Abdomen
An effective exercise against flaccidity is the plank, as it promotes muscle congestion and strengthening the entire muscle group of the abdomen. Lie face down on the floor and lift your own weight off of your elbows and feet. Keep your back straight as you contract your abdomen. Hold pressure and position for 15 seconds. The exercise should be repeated 10 to 50 times.
2. Buttocks
Lunges are resistance exercises that work the quadriceps and gluteal muscles. Stand straight with your arms at your sides. Bring one of your legs forward and move the rest of your torso forward, stopping it by flexing your lead leg. Return to the same position and switch legs. Perform 3 sets of 10 lunges each.
3. Legs
To get rid of the flaccidity and excess fat accumulated in the thighs, it is recommended to cycle. Try to intersperse a light pedaling (five minutes) with a hard one (30 seconds), with 30-second breaks between each. Then take 3 minutes to get back to your rhythm and start over. Start with 10 minutes and increase your times.
4. Arms
Raises are exercises that allow you to strengthen and reduce the flaccidity of your biceps and triceps, as well as the flaccidity of the arms. But also, tone your chest and shoulders. Standing, do raises with both arms without your hands exceeding the height of the shoulders. Perform the movements slowly to avoid injury, and support yourself using heavier weights or dumbbells. Do 30 reps.
5. Face
Open your mouth, nose and eyes completely (as if you were yawning) and hold that expression for five seconds; Relax for another five seconds and repeat the cycle a total of five times. This will promote the work of the facial muscles to combat sagging. Also try these exercises for the face.
In addition to practicing these exercises to combat sagging, it is also recommended to follow a diet rich in fiber, carbohydrates such as cereals, fruits, vegetables and grains, drink 2 liters of water every day, as well as apply some massages with natural firming creams to prevent loss of collagen and elastin from the skin.
