If there is a common goal the world wants to achieve, that is to lose weight and get rid of fat!

We try to shed kilos by starving ourselves, intense gym workouts, and running as if somebody’s chasing. While most people are fighting off obesity, Japan has been setting up an example of how you can stay fit.

What doctors say?

Japanese doctor Toshiki Fukutsudzi opted to create awareness about the side effects of having bad posture. She then wrote a book about strengthening abdominal muscles to help combat back problems. It became one of the best-selling books across Asia, and she even helped her patients with pelvic bone problems by reducing fat around the waist.

How does this method work?

The thing is, conditioning abdominal muscles can help you lose belly fat. These muscles form the core of the body, and strengthening the core is required to lose fat and acquire a better body.

What do you need to do?

To have a perfect posture and lose belly fat, all you need is a towel and at least 5 minutes every day. Get a towel and roll it into a log. Use an elastic band or string to keep it in shape. Lay flat on a hard surface and place the towel under your lower back where the spine makes an arch. Once your position is stable, keep your feet shoulders’ width apart and your toes inwards and joined. Do the same with your fingers. Once you are in a boat position, stretch and maintain the posture and hold for a good 5 minutes. It might seem painful from the beginning, but you will eventually get used to it. Do this for about 2-3 times a day and be amazed with wonderful results.

Just lay down for a good 5 minutes for 2-3 times a day and results will truly amaze you! This technique is very simple yet effective in correcting your body alignment. There’s nothing to lose with this technique, so give it a try! Big things start from small beginnings, so this one is worth the try.
