One of the things you get free as you get older is a bigger
midsection. It creeps up on you and you only know its existence when your
spouse/partner or friend points at it accusingly.
The bigger midsection is sometimes referred to, amusingly,
as pot belly, beer belly or relaxed muscle.
If we’re honest we’d all prefer the flat stomach we had in
our youth. There are ways and means to achieve a flatter stomach without
spending too much money, if any at all.
All you need is some space. You practice sitting upright
without any support. Fold your arms while lying down, with knees bent, and slowly
bring yourself to a sitting position with arms still folded and legs still on
the round. Painful at first when you’re not use to it, but it gets easier with practice.
Spend a few pounds or dollars and get a gym ball. They take
some getting use to because of their tendency to roll, after all they are just
an oversized ball.
When you finally get
the ball stable, sit on it in so that you can curl your back round the top of the
ball so you face the ceiling. Keep your
knees at right angles. Slowly bring yourself upwards, while you keep your arms
folded, so you’re sitting at the edge of the ball. Do several repetitions. In a few weeks you may
have lost much of the unwanted midsection.
You got the extra midsection free, you can also get rid of
it for free.
