Why sit-ups should become an indispensable part of your workouts

in #health7 years ago

Different variants of sit-ups are favorite exercises of athletes for one very important reason: they really work! But how and why? Let's understand.

The technique of performing squats is simple, no additional equipment is required. Another plus - this exercise is very natural for a person, as during the day we constantly squat to sit on a chair, pick up what was dropped, and so on, so that the risk of injury is minimized.

  1. Stimulate the production of hormones. which take a direct part in the formation of muscles.

  2. Strengthen the muscles of the bark. Squats include the muscles of the bark, that is, the lower back and the press. So do not think that squats are needed only for the legs and buttocks. This almost universal exercise will affect much more muscles.

  3. Improve flexibility. Many people, because of incorrect posture, have a greater load on the hips, so they often want to sit down and rest.
