Want to Decrease the fat you can 👀see & the internal Visceral fat you can’t 😔See❓

And, while your at it strengthen your feet & legs ,improve your balance & build muscle❓

Take the one daily movement you are already doing multiple times a the day (getting up from a 🪑chair) & supercharge it WITHOUT the help of your hands 🤚🏻or arms🙆🏼‍♀️ for support.

“Get Up Offa That Thing🪑”
And, before you know it your overall Body fat & Visceral fat will decrease & your mobility, balance, strength & vitality will skyrocket💫

Sit To Stand Test:
The 30-second Sit to Stand Test was designed as a rehab fitness protocol to test the functional fitness of adults over 60. It’s a quick & easy test of an individual’s ability to transition between sitting & standing five times in a row without using their hands.

The Sit to Stand Test is posted below

Grab a chair, preferably a chair without arms. The goal is to sit & stand as many times as possible in 30-seconds.

If you are having difficulty getting up & down from a chair I’ve got the solution for you……CHAIR YOGA‼️ If you need to get stronger but just don’t know how to begin I’ve got the solution for you…..Chair Yoga‼️

👃👃👃👃🫁🫁🫀🧠
The mouth should never be used for breathing except for times of high intensity exercising. It’s all about breathing in & out through the 👃nose The nose has a minimum of 30 functions. Here are just a few:

✅Increases oxygen & blood flow to the brain
✅relieves stress & lowers blood pressure, helps restore memories
✅monitors heart rate, helps maintain & restore emotional balance
✅Lowers the burden on the heart
✅filters, heats & treats raw air
✅Reduces snoring & sleep apanea, asthma & hay fever
✅keeps lips, mouth & throat moist during sleep
✅sinuses release a boost of nitric oxide, a molecule that plays an essential role in increasing circulation & oxygen delivery into cells
✅protects teeth from dental decay

The thing about the human 👃nose is the more you use it the better it works.
When you mouth breathe either out of habit or because of a stuffy nose, the side effects are real.
🌀Brain fog after waking up
🌀difficulty concentrating
🌀bad breath
🌀lack of focus & low energy

Here’s a gentle nose 👃breathing exercise to help unstuff a stuffy nose:

1)Take a normal breath in through your nose 👃
2)exhale through your nose👃
3)Hold your 👃nose & nod your head up & down 5 times
4)Let go & breath in through your nose👃

😃Just like that‼️ a stuffy nasal passage will open up & you can breathe through your nose👃

You may have to repeat
this inhaling, exhaling, nose 👃holding, head nodding breath exercise multiple times daily. But, with a little practice you can say bye 🙌🙌bye to your stuffy 👃nose & mouth breathing👍

A LITTLE TIDBIT
🍉🍇🍅🥝🍎🥑
🚫Just walk on by🚫

Precut fruit offers convenience but increases the risk of food borne illness due to loss of protective skin.

It’s also way more 💵expensive & the fruit is treated with chemical 😛preservatives to keep it looking fresh & appealing. Just walk 🚶🏻🚶🏻‍♂️on by👍
