Let’s suggest that a woman want to decrease the volume of her legs. So, she does a lot of sitting down exercises. Nevertheless, her weight remains to be the same. Moreover, legs can even increase in size. Keep in mind that influencing on the certain muscle group we will strengthen and tone up our muscles. When we see that our legs increase in size we come to the point that physical exercises don’t provide effective results.

The problem is that the organism doesn’t burn out fat once we begin to do yoga classes. As the beginning of our yoga class, we begin to use energy source that consists of carbohydrates such as glucose and glycogen. If our organism doesn’t have these energy sources, but we still continue doing yoga classes we begin to use additional energy sources. So, our organism begins to burn out fat.

 

How long should we do yoga exercises to start burning out fat?

As a rule, an organism begins to use additional energy sources and burns out fact after 30-40 minutes of doing yoga classes. So, in order to start doing yoga classes we need to select the complex of yoga exercises that we can do for 30-40 minutes.

 

What should we eat to lose weight faster?

The amount of weight that we can lose doing yoga classes directly depends on the food that we eat. Let’s suggest that we have eaten chocolate before a yoga class. In this case, our organism will get additional amount of glucose. Of course, you will manage to gain health benefits from doing yoga, but you will lose less excess weight in the end. Keep in mind that our organism continues to consume energy even after we stop doing yoga. So, if you want to lose more weight you shouldn’t eat about 1-1.5 hours after yoga classes.

 

When will you see the first weight loss results?

            
Very often yoga beginners say something like this: "I have been doing weight loss yoga exercises for a week, but still can’t see any effects. Yoga doesn’t help lose weight."

It is important to know that you can see the first results only if you have been doing yoga 2-3 times per week for about 3-4 months. So, your organism gets used to high physical load. Finally, yoga will become your lifestyle.
