Utilize Yoga to Lose Belly Fat

by on May 24, 2009

Adding yoga to your daily work out routine in addition to cardio and strength training can increase your belly fat loss results. Yoga helps increase strength and flexibility while decreasing stress. Yoga utilizes deep and rhythmic breathing while performing the movements or poses.
A recent study completed at the University of California – Berkley has shown that “women who practice yoga have better body images and less disordered eating patterns than women who take part in traditional aerobic exercises. Study participants filled out surveys about the type of exercise they performed, how often, and their feelings about their bodies.”
Here are a few yoga poses that focus on the abdominal area and should help with weight loss and belly fat loss.
o Adho Mukha Scanasana – Downward Facing Dog
o Ardha Chandrasana – Half Moon
o Bakasana – Crow
o Bhujangasan – Cobra
o Chakrasana – Wheel
o Dandayamana-Dhanurasana – Standing Bow Pull
o Dhanurasan – The Bow
o Eka Pada Galavasana – Flying Crow
o Loasana – Pendant
o Matsyendrasana – Sitting Spinal Twist

o Salamba Sarvangasana – Shoulderstand
