How to relax after training your abdominal muscles

Now we promote national fitness, especially the younger generation, many of them have the habit of fitness because of health and beauty. Nowadays, both men and women in all walks of life love abdominal muscles equally. However, it still requires a certain intensity of training to build muscles in the abdomen, where fat is most likely to accumulate. Therefore, the abdomen is in a tense state every time we exercise. For this reason, we need to relax after exercising the abdomen to avoid muscle soreness. For example, stretching the muscles, massaging the muscles, and applying hot water are all acceptable.

1. To relax your abdominal muscles, you should stretch your muscles, massage your muscles, and take a hot bath.

Stretch your muscles: Allow your muscle fibers to fully stretch. First, pat your abdomen with both hands, then lie down flat and stretch your abdominal muscles. Place your arms flat on both sides of your skull, stretch your palms back as far as possible with your back facing upwards, and gently lift your back off the ground to arch your abdomen. Then breathe slowly, like practicing yoga, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth. Repeat this several times to adjust your muscles and you will feel a certain degree of relaxation.

Massage muscles: shaking and massaging muscles can relax muscles and promote local blood circulation.

Hot water bath: increases body heat, promotes metabolism, and speeds up the excretion of lactic acid. After doing some abdominal exercises, you can take a hot bath, try to take a longer bath, but the temperature should not be too high. Allowing the whole body's muscle groups to relax to a certain extent, and then performing some appropriate relaxing massage, can effectively relieve fatigue.

2. To relax your abdominal muscles, apply lactic acid-removing ointment

Since muscles will become sore and produce a lot of lactic acid after exercise, we can buy Mentholatum's lactic acid removal ointment, which can provide some relaxation after application.

3. Relax your abdominal muscles by taking a walk or doing some relaxing exercises

Walking: After intense exercise, we can relax the muscles of the whole body by taking a slow walk.

Do some relaxation exercises: First, we need to stand up, put our hands together, and then stretch them directly above our heads. This can relax our rectus abdominis to a certain extent. Secondly, let your arms hang naturally, straighten your hands and make fists, and rotate them inwards of the body. Repeat this exercise several times to relax your biceps brachii to a certain extent.
