The move is actually a breathing exercise, which doctors often suggest for back pain but also suggested for the most effective exercise. So how can breathing benefit your workout? Well, it’s called the “Long Breath Diet.”
Fat is made up of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon. When the oxygen you breathe in reaching your fat cells, it breaks the fat down into carbon and water. So the more you breathe, and the deeper you breathe, will ensure that the most oxygen gets to those fat cells and therefore breaks down the most fat.
You read that right: breathing deeply actually helps you to lose more weight. And the exercise popularized by Ryosuke doesn’t even require breathing WHILE working out. It just requires a very specific type of deep breathing for an extended period of time.
The exercise requires that you stand in a particular pose to make the breathing as effective as possible. To see how to correctly position your body, make sure to watch the Brightside video below.
Next, you’ll want to breathe in deeply for three seconds before firmly exhaling for seven seconds. When exhaling, there’s a little trick to really boost fat burning and you’ll see it in Ryosuke’s stance below.
Repeat this for 2-10 minutes every day and you’ll be shocked by the results! It took Ryosuke a few weeks to see noticeable weight loss, and that might be all the time you see a difference, too!
