Listening to our body and looking after it consciously is essential if we want to enjoy a full life and healthy ageing.
One of the forms of training that brings the greatest benefits is hypopressive exercise.
These exercises aim to re-educate posture and, combined with breathing, they provide a great many therapeutic and aesthetic benefits as well as improvements in sports performance: they strengthen the muscles and help prevent back discomfort and injuries.
Unlike sit-ups, hypopressive exercises do not increase intra-abdominal pressure, which brings positive effects for health in the short, medium and long term at a postural, respiratory, vascular, metabolic and sexual level.
The difference between a hypopressive exercise and a classic sit-up is considerable, since the improvements achieved with hypopressives are more global and are not focused on the abdominal muscles alone.
The pace of life we lead, stress, a sedentary lifestyle… all of it means our body suffers every day. That is why exercises of this kind are advisable for almost everyone, as they let the body be realigned and made strong in its natural position, with the spine properly upright.
