Fitness trainer suggests four in-bed exercises to strengthen the midsection

Fitness trainer Denīze, who has more than 16 years of experience working with people of different ages, recommends four exercises for strengthening the core that can be done in bed. She reminds readers that exercise alone does not remove fat from the belly specifically.

For people who dislike gyms, lack time for workouts or simply do not want to get out of bed in the morning to exercise on the floor, there is a more convenient option: several simple exercises can be done while lying in bed. Latvian newspaper Latvijas Avīze reported this on 6 November, citing advice from fitness trainer Denīze.

Denīze has worked for more than 16 years with people of various ages and fitness levels. She recommends four exercises that are particularly suited to strengthening the midsection of the body.

Why waist size can grow

With age, waist circumference can increase because of hormonal changes, loss of muscle mass and reduced physical activity. Strengthening the core does not necessarily require countless abdominal crunches.

What to keep in mind

Exercises alone cannot "burn off" fat specifically in the belly area. Fat loss happens throughout the whole body and is influenced by overall physical activity, diet and lifestyle.
