3 anti-bloating and belly-slimming routines

The three workouts Mia shared in her clip combined full-body stretching and core-strengthening routines. The fitness coach claimed that by the time one reaches the third exercise, they’ll be able to release tension in their pelvis, reduce bloating, and the swelling in their body will go away. Here are the 3 exercises she suggested:

1. Place both your hands in front of you, palms flat on the ground, with one leg folded and the other raised with your foot planted flat on the floor. Move forward and backwards, allowing your body to stretch fully. When you move forward, move the second leg back and come into the tabletop yoga pose, also known as Bharmanasana.

2. For the second routine, sit on the floor with your hands placed behind your hips. Now, with one ankle placed on the thigh of another leg, which is bent from the knee, move your body sideways.

3. For the last pose, kneel on the floor. Then, place one leg near the other knee. Now, move your body forwards and backwards in the same position, with your hands placed in front of your chest and looking downwards.
