Can doing housework help you lose weight?

　　1. To keep you energetic throughout the day, do some light exercise in bed every morning when you wake up. When you first wake up, turn your body to one side, put your hands under your head, and then slowly fold your knees. This posture can make the muscles elastic and relieve the tension in the back. If you want to strengthen your abdomen and front neck, you might as well straighten your legs, lie on your back on the bed, put your hands flat on your sides, and raise your head and shoulders for 5 seconds, 10 times.

　　2. To make your leg muscles toned, you can slowly pull your knees toward your chest until you feel the tension on the back of your thighs and calves. Hold this position for a few seconds, then relax, and repeat, one leg at a time.

　　3. When you are doing standing work such as ironing clothes, cooking, arranging flowers, etc., you might as well spread your legs and stand up straight. This is also a kind of exercise . In addition, when doing indoor cleaning work, if you only hold a broom, mop or vacuum cleaner in your hand, don't just move your arms. Your whole body should be integrated into the movement, and let your ankles, hips, knees, etc. move together. When you swing to pick up something from a high place, you can stand on tiptoes and stretch your body as much as possible to strengthen the muscles of your thighs, calves and buttocks.

　　4. When you bend down to pick something up, you should bend at the waist or thighs, as if you are touching your toes with your hands. This can strengthen the muscles of your thighs and buttocks (people with back problems should avoid this action). When walking, straighten your back and raise your head, like a puppet with straightened strings.

　　5. Use the free time when cooking or washing dishes, and use the stove as a ballet practice place. Stand sideways 90 centimeters above the stove, grab the edge of the table with your left hand, lift your right leg, knees and toes straight, rock back and forth 10 times, repeat with your left leg, then face the sink and straighten your arms, hold the edge of the sink and bend your knees, and hold for 5 seconds.

　　6. Often buy some larger clothes to wear at home. This is not to make you "grow" enough to wear fat clothes, but to help you get rid of the feeling of being "guilty about being fat" after wearing such clothes. It doesn't cost a lot of money, but you can get weight loss results quickly. This is just a kind of psychology“ first aid Law".
