Will my butt get bigger if I sit for a long time? What should I do?
Female friends are most concerned about their body shape, and their buttocks also need special care. For women who work, sitting for a long time is unavoidable. So does sitting for a long time have an impact on the buttocks? Let’s take a look at the details below!
Why does your butt get bigger if you sit for a long time?
"Chinese women's waists and buttocks are very low, and when you look at them from the back, they look like they are sitting when they stand." When Zhang Ailing said this about the weaknesses of our bodies, beautiful buttocks became inevitable for everyone to pursue. I usually hear that sitting poorly will affect the back and body shape. Could it be that the buttocks will also be deformed because of this? In fact, people say that the buttocks will get bigger the more you sit. To be precise, it refers to the habit of sitting for a long time and lacking exercise, which leads to poor blood circulation, fat accumulation in the buttocks, and local muscle relaxation. Some girls sit slanted in chairs like cartilage, which concentrates pressure on the tail end of the spine, causing poor blood circulation and insufficient oxygen supply. Sitting only on the front third of the chair will cause the body weight to be concentrated on the small square of the buttocks, which will make the whole body tired over a long period of time.
Don’t think that only sitting for too long will be bad for your buttocks. Standing for too long will also cause difficulty in blood returning, insufficient oxygen supply to your buttocks, poor metabolism, and the terrifying phenomenon of varicose veins in your legs. Bad living habits are also related to the shape of the buttocks. Poor blood circulation, poor metabolism, and muscle relaxation will prevent you from having plump and round buttocks! Some people like to exercise, but when exercising, they wear thin, unsupportive triangle underwear. When they are young, they don’t notice anything wrong. But in old age, the pearly yellow buttocks will be aligned with the center of the earth due to loose elastic fiber tissue and insufficient support. .
