Lie flat on your back with legs together and arms at your sides. Inhale while keeping your arms and upper body stationary. Slowly lift your legs upward to a 45-degree angle, maintaining leg alignment. Hold for one minute to stretch the calf muscles, completing one full breath cycle.
Next, lift your thighs upward to stretch them, forming a 90-degree angle with your torso. Keep your upper body still throughout, engaging your abdominal muscles. Inhale while drawing your belly in, exhale through your nostrils, hold for 1 minute, then slowly lower your legs.
Note: Though this exercise appears simple, reaching the 90-degree angle is challenging and requires core engagement—hence its effectiveness for slimming the abdomen and lengthening the legs. Perform 10 repetitions daily before bed to elongate muscles and reduce belly fat. Commit to one month!
