Sitting for a long time or standing for a long time, which is more harmful? How to reduce a big buttocks after sitting for a long time

Nowadays, many office workers are sedentary. Sitting for long periods of time and being unable to get up for long periods of time every day is a lifestyle phenomenon for many people. Sitting for long periods of time is very harmful to our body and can also cause us to lose shape.

The harm is great, whether standing or sitting. Keeping a posture for a long time is really not good for the body. Because human physical activity is closely related to body function, but if physical activity decreases, the body's cell activity will also slow down. Over time, the body function will decline, which will endanger human health. Compared with sitting for a long time, standing for a long time is also a very bad habit. In related studies, it is found that the longer the person stands, the greater the risk of various diseases, especially the probability of heart disease will increase significantly. It is also found clinically that people who often stand for a long time are more likely to suffer from varicose veins, which is not good for the health of blood vessels in the lower limbs. Only by moving and changing the state of "immobility" can the body be healthier. For people who stand or sit for a long time, make sure to get up and move around or massage for 5 to 10 minutes every 30 minutes. Exercise can also prevent edema. Regular jogging or brisk walking are effective ways to prevent edema. When the seasons change, be sure to keep your legs warm. Especially in summer, when hiding in an air-conditioned room in shorts, it is best to cover your legs with a small blanket. If you have to sit or stand while working, we can also minimize the harm. The way to reduce the harm is very simple. According to the definition in the United States, standing or sitting for a long time is more than 90 minutes. You can change your posture or walk around every half an hour or whenever you feel tired. It can help us relieve stress on the whole body and reduce the harm to health caused by sitting or standing for a long time.

It will become bigger. If you don't exercise for a long time, your body will accumulate a lot of fat, which will make your buttocks become big in the long run. If you sit for a long time and don't exercise every day, not only will your buttocks become bigger, but it will also cause fat accumulation in your buttocks, making it bigger and looser. Your waist will also become thicker, and it will be difficult to repair it later. Maintain a correct sitting posture. When we sit down to work, our waist must be straight. We can't lie on the chair, which is very harmful to the body. If possible, you can also put a waist pad behind you, and then lift the center of gravity upwards, so that the pressure on the buttocks will be much less. Lie prone on the bed, lift one leg, keep the knee of this leg bent at a right angle, and the sole of the foot facing the ceiling, while contracting the muscles on the buttocks, slowly lift this leg about 12 cm off the bed, and keep it still. If you can hold it for 30 seconds and only feel the buttocks muscles tense, it means that your buttocks muscles are functioning normally; if you always shake, or feel that your legs and lower back are in a tight state. This means that there is a problem with your hip muscle function. You should pay attention to prevent "office hip"! Eat less sugar, drink enough water, and eat more fish. Butt fat is difficult to lose, so it is extremely important to strictly control sugar intake. Sugar will increase the secretion of insulin, enhance the body's ability to store fat, and consume the body's energy, making people less willing to exercise. Dehydration will make people crave sweets, so you should drink more water. In order to improve the elasticity of the buttocks skin, experts from the British Dietetic Association recommend eating two portions of fish per week, or omega-3 fatty acid supplements.

There will be some impact, but the problem that affects menstruation is still endocrine. Due to the physiological structure of women, private parts cannot be in a humid environment for a long time. Sitting for a long time can easily cause pelvic congestion, which leads to poor blood circulation in the appendages and cervix, and easily causes gynecological diseases. Sitting for a long time will not only affect the blood circulation of the human body, but also easily cause adnexitis. Xiao Yi reminded that many women have been under excessive mental stress due to work reasons, which can easily cause adnexitis. Women should pay attention to changing and washing underwear frequently, and try to expose them to the sun to prevent bacteria from growing. Xiao Yi reminded that when menstruating, they should change sanitary napkins frequently, wash the private parts with warm water, and keep them clean. Women can eat more fresh fruits and vegetables in daily life to speed up metabolism and eat less raw, cold and spicy food, which can effectively prevent gynecological diseases. Sitting puts more pressure on the spine than standing upright. When standing, the spine bears 100% of the pressure, when sitting, the spine bears 150% of the pressure, and when sitting with the body leaning forward (such as using a computer), the spine bears 250% of the pressure. In daily life, most of us do not have a good sitting posture, and often sit crookedly. The habit of crossing our legs can also cause problems such as pelvic tilt.

How to relax your hips:
