Flab around the sides and waist is generally directly associated with overall body fat; the more fat you have, the more it accumulates around your middle. Abdominal flab is not only annoying, but also it’s unhealthy. The Mayo Clinic notes that excess belly fat can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and some cancers. Fortunately, there are several good exercises for flab on the sides and waist that will help improve your health and physique. Although they’re referred to as love handles, there’s nothing to love about the excess flab at the sides of your waistline. The muscles underneath that layer of fat are known as your obliques. Although their function is to rotate your torso, it’ll take more than torso rotations to get rid of the fat. Reducing fat in one area of your body isn’t possible. Instead, focus on losing weight from your entire body, and as the fat reduces, so will the fat around your middle. Exercises to Reduce Side Fat: 1. ...

Since then, the method has acquired both an army of fans and opponents who claim that all this is profanity, and there is no benefit from strange facial movements. However, the Face Yoga method, since its inception, has already acquired scientific evidence of effectiveness: exercises help tone muscles that sag over time, as well as restore fat pads that lower and change face geometry. The only drawback of the method is the need for constant efforts - once you start to maintain the result of the exercise, you have to do it every day. But who promised it would be easy?

Lung capacity is crucial for us runners, so increasing it should be an integral part of any training routine. I can’t emphasize this enough. Why should you care? Improving your lung capacity takes your breathing to the next level.  Once you’re breathing more efficiently, you’ll become a better and stronger runner. 1. Start Slow Getting winded while running doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s a problem with your technique or the way you’re breathing: it’s more likely a problem with your conditioning. When you exercise, you’re placing your body under a lot of stress, and your muscles demand more oxygen. The more you ask of your muscles, the more oxygen they need. So, how do you take things slow? Quite simple. When you’re running, maintain a conversational pace. This means you should be able to speak in full sentences without gasping. After you’ve gotten to that level of conditioning, work your way up to more challenging runs and distances. Con...
