What's wrong? That's right, someone there hinted at a kindergarten. It’s just inconvenient for someone that he abandoned such a considerable company 5 days before the New Year =(((((( Someone is simply protecting their reputation - I give 100% Fitness and Caviar are incompatible =) Moreover, there are far more than one list and the same, and the product is different, even if it’s from the same supplier =( NOBODY has NEVER received money from one person for fitness and will refuse 50 (or even more) the ordered product - this is their personal bummer =(( It’s just a shame for people — they came up with an excuse.
BUT! for example, I have already refused several offers to buy caviar NOT AT THE PRICE that it costs in the store.
Because I was hoping to buy through UP.
so what: I’m coming, and here you are, please. Bummer, sir.
And in fact, kindergarten, second quarter.
I won't give you a toy because...
It’s a shame, honestly... and I don’t want to run and ask for caviar from those who offered it :(
Moreover, most likely it is no longer there :(
How to do the exercise correctly? The effectiveness of the exercise will directly depend on compliance with the correct technique for performing it. Technique for performing the plank exercise: The feet should be together. This position of the feet complicates balance, and, therefore, the load on the abs will be corresponding. Legs should be kept straight and tense. Otherwise, incorrect positioning of the legs will lead to a weakening of the load on the rectus abdominis muscle, which is negative.
Directly urgently, and at a pace, take out and put on the calves. Legs are like legs, not ideal, not particularly crooked, but calves are extremely necessary. What effective exercises will help correct the existing defect? Jumping rope has already been completed..
The best way to build calves is with short-rise exercises, which is how I built them. You know, in folk dances, they don’t pull out the toe, but take it on themselves? And the machine is made in the same way - batmans, all sorts of life with a sock on itself. The calves are growing before our eyes.
I received the boots today. Yesterday there was a review about them - that they are not suitable for wide calves. Absolutely the opposite. My calves are 41, not that they are buttoned up, but they are also loose - i.e. for a larger volume. Gorgeous. I knew that there was a thin lining inside and took it specifically for today's weather.

Hello! Since childhood, I have had a problem with being overweight, and this is probably why spider veins have always been visible on my legs. However, neither I nor my parents attached much importance to this; they said that the skin was simply thin and transparent. With age, the problem worsened: the veins became brighter, it was embarrassing to wear transparent tights, I became very embarrassed about my legs. I tried some products, ointments, gels, and saw practically no effect. When it was my time to carry and give birth.
Girls, please share the recipes for your favorite family twists for the winter? I mean all kinds of lecho, salads, caviar, etc., with cabbage, pumpkin, peppers, zucchini. preferably with step-by-step instructions, since I only know the simplest things - cucumbers and mushrooms, I’ve already rolled them up, I want something new and tasty before the season is over. By the way, at the intersection, cucumbers cost 25 :) And also about mushrooms. I have been marinating them for many years (salt, sugar, vinegar), and I don’t know any other recipes. But I know that some of them are simple.
The last zucchini salad can be made
-Soak the cucumbers for 2 hours in cold water;
-Cut the ends on both sides, add spices (dill, currant leaves, oak leaves, garlic, etc.
for 1 liter of hot water - 2 tablespoons of salt. Cool the brine, pour over the cucumbers and leave for 2 days until sour.
After white foam appears in the brine:
— Pour the brine into a saucepan, bring to a boil and pour the cucumbers into tightly packed jars.
Drain the brine again, bring to a boil and pour over the cucumbers again. You can add a small piece of chili pepper to each jar.
-Cover with a blanket and wait until completely cool.
Full calves or anyone with pain recently discussed how to reduce the volume of calves, it turns out there is a remedy: the reason is a shortened muscle, if you stretch it every day for 10 minutes, standing below on a wide board at an angle for 10 minutes, then the volume can be reduced and no heels higher than 5 cm, they also shorten the muscle.
Yesterday before going to bed I took a shower and discovered that my left labia was swollen and hurt when pressed. I was very scared, I don’t understand what it could be. I haven’t had sex for a very long time, I take care of my hygiene. Previously, I suffered from thrush and herpes, but their manifestations were different. This morning the swelling seemed to be less. But the labia still hurts when pressed, and the entire perineum on the left, even the pubis, hurts when pressed. Moreover, from time to time the left side somehow sways when I am in.
Girls, what can I drink or do, it happened several times already, but today it was just terrible how painful it was, I rolled on the bed for about 15 minutes at night, and even during the day my leg hurt when I walked.
Spring is delayed, summer is late. and only autumn came on time, cold and rainy. We all need rubber boots to keep our feet warm. And so that it would not be embarrassing not only to measure puddles on the Volga, but also to come to work. On Saturday I took three pairs from Irina :)). Two for myself, one for my daughter. No. 1. Peas. I took 38 to 37.5. True to size. I can’t take measurements; the model sped off in an unknown direction. The most interesting thing is that when water gets in the peas turn pink and blue. Daughter.
R.37 fits well on a 23.5 foot, there is a margin of 3-4mm.
Already updated, they fit very nicely on the leg.
Tell me, please, should stretch boots with a leather top fit like a glove on the foot or are folds allowed? Yesterday I found a very nice one. boots with a small heel, but on the calves they are exactly the right size, and closer to the ankle folds form, even when you stand. The sellers assure that this is how it should be.
First of all, thanks to the organizer - everything was fast, clear, I signed up a week ago, the machine was on Thursday, I picked it up from the locomotive today. Model 573, black. For some reason, the reviews were entirely “on a broad problematic footing”, “on the 39-40th, just right 39th” (here [link-1] and here [link-2]). I have just a wide calf and 39-40. I ordered the 39th. I climbed in. The length is just right, but it could be worn. if. In general, the boot did not fit by 7-8 centimeters :((The eldest daughter happened to be “at hand” - we buy it for her.
I know about it and “don’t believe it” (c) 😉
Only J/el/en/i can climb onto a really wide calf, well, maybe also g/a/b/o/r xxl which.
It’s good that there is someone to help with)
It's buzzing. Shows signs of life. sometimes even a little steam. I unscrewed it and looked. There is an electrical circuit with a steam generator. If it hums and does something a little, it means the problem is NOT in the electrical circuit - nothing has burned out. The tubes are in place, water is flowing. Turned it on in a disassembled state. It became clear that small air bubbles were moving in the tube in the opposite direction, opposite to the movement of water. This means the mop either fell with a reservoir filled with water, or swallowed air when.
Help, there’s a problem 🙁 My feet are itching like crazy. No, of course I understand that this phrase is similar to the phrase of a homeless person who has never washed, but believe me, I’m a normal person :) But my feet are just ITCHING like crazy! I'm almost like Bingo Bongo. It itches from the buttocks to the ankles. No one else in the family is itchy. I didn’t change the washing powders. I didn’t eat eggs (they used to make my hands itch). It doesn’t look like scabies at all (I had it after the hospital). So what should I do? Which doctor should I go to and in general?
Girls! No one has or has had cramps in their legs during pregnancy. In particular, I have cramps in my ankles from the knee (it is felt more strongly on the back of my leg), sometimes together with my feet. And this happens in the morning, when I decide to stretch my legs. Here's how to enter. You immediately wake up and massage your legs to make it go away. My friend warned me (she had the same thing and it started at the same time as mine) not to stretch, but it’s somehow spontaneous - my legs get tired (I sleep with them bent.
42-year-old actress Gwyneth Paltrow was photographed on Venice Beach in California wearing short shorts and gladiator sandals. Against the black background, the actress’s bare, toned legs especially stood out - it’s noticeable that the mother of two children does not spare herself in the gym. The star should thank not only her perseverance, but also her star trainer Tracy Anderson, whose fame has been resounding in Hollywood for more than 10 years. “Gwyneth came to me after the birth of her son Moses in 2006 and said: “I need to act in.
On April 17, 2015, as part of Estet fashion week, a themed day for the family jewelry brand Gevorkyan is being held. His philosophy is to transmit all the best ideas and traditions that contribute to family unification, educating a new generation on the values of love and respect for each other, understanding the aesthetics of beauty and passing on these traditions from generation to generation in their best jewelry embodiment. History of the brand GEVORKYAN is a well-known name in the Russian jewelry market. Today it is.
Are there such ways? 🙂 For my taste, the purchased caviar was too salty. I don’t want to eat it; naturally, it’s a pity to throw it away. Is there anything that can be done to reduce salinity or is everything hopeless?
I tried rinsing some with milk and some with mineral water.
We managed to get rid of the oversaltness, but in the case of milk, the appearance of the caviar becomes not entirely appetizing, because... it slightly changes color from its usual to slightly milky orange, and the burst eggs become milky white))
Extremely disappointed with the quality of chum salmon caviar. Today I received caviar at 9:30 on Tulskaya. I decided to spoil my mother. We opened the can and the smell of hydrogen sulfide hit our nose. Mom took a few eggs on her fork and spat them out. The caviar turned out to be spoiled. 1070 rub. just thrown away, it’s a shame, a shame.
Unfortunately, everyone has failures. But this is probably how the circumstances developed, so you, Na, could not understand or try to understand Olya and her works. and all participants
PEOPLE! Does anyone know any exercises that can help you lose weight in your calves and ankles? Everything else is more or less normal, but this...
There is a problem. Very full calves and wide ankle. I've been wearing trousers for many years now. Skirts appear, but rarely and mostly to the floor. Very rarely just below the knee. I still want a dress for the fall, but not to the floor. What plan should I watch? And I don’t see any shoes on under my dress. It's hard to find boots that fit very full calves, and if I do find them, they're overtly feminine. Goodbye youth. And it seems to me that they visually make the calves look even bigger. How can we make them more elegant?
Apart from Gabor, alas, it is impossible to find almost anything anywhere, including London, Paris, Rome, New York, etc. .
They have models of high boots for very wide feet with adjustable cuffs. And, by the way, the last is comfortable, even with heels.
. Sit on the edge of a chair: your back is straight, your shoulders are straight, your head is raised proudly. Raise your right foot, pointing your toes out like a prima ballerina, and carefully place it in the shoe. After making sure that your fingers have slipped into the very sock, try to move them and only then fasten the strap. Feel the tension first in your ankle, then in your calf. Now put on your left shoe. My toes are pulled forward and my ankles are pulled back - a little strange, but you'll have to get used to it. Now bend over slightly, take a deep breath and try to stand up. Oops, watch out! I hope you didn't fall? Feet shoulder-width apart, back straight, begin rotating your hips. This exercise is not at all as stupid as it seems: it will help.
. Has it become easier? Try walking again. Raise your right leg, straighten your toes, and shift your weight to your toes. Under no circumstances should you wear a heel - it could break. Take your time, remember the cat-like smooth movements of the models on the catwalk. It’s better to take small steps: it’s easier, more graceful and safer. Transfer the weight from one leg to the other as carefully as possible. Remember: the lower and thicker the heel, the more confidently you can lean on your heel. Imagine that you are walking along a tight rope: the step starts from the hip, the buttocks participate in the movement, describing eights. I felt heaviness in my legs - it’s time to take a break and change into comfortable, worn-out sneakers. Do you want to reach the average level as soon as possible?
Treatment of varicose veins: sclerotherapy, laser, compression stockings, gymnastics
1. Large foot size: Large feet are a common problem for very tall or very thin girls. To visually reduce your foot size, you should choose shoes with a round toe in a contrasting color. The author of this amazing discovery was the great Coco Chanel, who in 1958 created shoes with a dark toe that make your feet more graceful and neat! 2. Leg length: Powder-colored shoes have delighted us for several seasons now. It's all about the amazing ability of flesh-colored shoes to “lengthen” your legs. The higher.
the difference is almost 3 cm, we did all the prescribed tests (X-ray, ultrasound of blood vessels, consultation with a lymphologist) - there are no pathologies, it seems like a variant of the norm. But visually this is very boring and spoils the appearance. Tell me, has anyone come across this, maybe massage can fix it, etc. or advise a doctor who else I could consult with, thank you
For example, he always jumps on only one leg, jumps over/jumps on only one leg, even if he runs up to a small obstacle, he changes his leg in front of it.
I would like to share my impressions of rubber Ugg boots from Mashurik. They're awesome! It’s really a complete imitation that they are sewn, the seams are all as they should be. And most importantly, just like UGG boots, it’s easy to get into them without hands, which is very rare for rubber boots. So, if you have a wide foot and a big instep, don’t worry, they will definitely suit everyone. At the same time, they are made very, very well, I think they will withstand the upcoming flood. There is a nice short fur inside, it feels like fleece - I would love them.
Varicose veins: symptoms, treatment, prevention. How can a phlebologist help?
. What to do if spider veins appear on your legs? Why can’t you sit in a cross-legged position? How to change your diet to avoid vascular problems? Associate Professor, Department of General Surgery, First Moscow State Medical University named after. I.M. Sechenova, phlebologist surgeon Igor Tsarenko will talk about the diagnosis, modern treatment and prevention of varicose veins. Most often, people turn to specialists in the treatment and prevention of vein diseases.
. However, the ill-fated “stars” appear much earlier - at 20-30 years. In addition to women with a hereditary predisposition, there is also a certain risk group. Those who are on their feet all day Those who spend the whole working day standing are more susceptible to venous changes than others. Employees of beauty salons and shops - be on the lookout! What to do? For those who need to stand on their feet for duty, doctors recommend stretching their feet at every opportunity, transferring body weight from heel to toe and back. You can also walk up and down a few steps. This warm-up has a positive effect on the functioning of blood vessels and blood vessels.
. By lifting weights, you create pressure and blood flows down, which puts additional stress on the veins. Avoid hot baths and wash your feet with cold water. This will prevent your veins from dilating and will facilitate blood circulation. The sun is beneficial for people, but the heat of the sun makes it difficult for the venous system to function. Therefore, rest more in the shade. If possible, try to run barefoot in cold water. What not to do: Avoid warming procedures. They dilate the veins, which increases the load on the vessels. It is not recommended to sit in a hot bath. It is better to wash your feet with cool water. In order not to increase the number of spider veins on the body, it is advisable to sunbathe less. Don't get carried away with the bathhouse.
I look at the boasts below, with calves of 33-34 cm and size 37, it’s not worth taking them, right? :((
I have awesome Bad*en boots from Pionervozhata and thick legs (in general, I always thought that my calf girth of 36.5 cm was not much), how to combine this? Lately I can’t fit into anything, I can’t understand, or I Is it really huge, or are the manufacturers making fun of me? The question is: is it possible to stretch the boot, has anyone done it, and does it make sense and it’s better not to bother and adjust it? It’s such a shame, the heel is a complete waste! I just sleep and see how I walk in them, yes for such a price. In general, I am suffering. Give me some advice, please?
. Vein occlusion (blocking blood flow to the heart or lungs) may occur, which can be fatal. A blood clot cannot be seen if it forms in the deep veins, but signs include swelling in that part of the legs and constant pain. If these symptoms occur, you should consult a doctor immediately. In order to prevent thrombophlebitis, it is not recommended to lead a sedentary lifestyle, constantly move, play sports, especially pay attention to strengthening your calves, watch your weight and try not to gain weight. The most important thing is that you do not need to self-medicate, which can worsen your condition. As soon as you notice the first signs of varicose veins or the appearance of hardening and redness in an enlarged vein, consult a doctor immediately. Despite the many modern medications.
. Exercise 1 . While sitting on a chair, place your right leg on top of your left and lift your left leg as high as possible several times. Then switch legs. Exercise 2 . Without getting up from the chair, place both feet on the heels, and then with a rolling motion, move the weight of your legs to your toes. Repeat the exercise 10 times. Exercise 3. Crossing one leg over the other, rotate the foot of your top leg clockwise. Repeat the exercise with each leg 15 times. Exercise 4. Get up from the chair and stretch your whole body up, rising onto your toes. Exercise 5. While sitting on a chair, bend and straighten both legs while holding onto support, such as the back of the chair. Do the exercise 10 times. Exercise 6. Taking off your shoes, squeeze your toes as hard as you can, then slowly relax.
. When canning, drying, drying, the concentration of the mineral decreases slightly, but it is much less absorbed in the body. Therefore, magnesium deficiency is less common in summer than in cold periods. The concentration of magnesium is high in fish and seafood. Pyridoxine is found in large quantities in unrefined cereal grains, vegetables, fish, meat, milk, cattle and cod liver, and egg yolk. Drug treatment for long-term latent magnesium deficiency begins with preparations containing magnesium with vitamin B 6, in the presence of which the absorption of the microelement improves. Replenishment of the mineral level occurs no earlier than after two months of treatment. When taking medications containing magnesium, it is necessary.
. A low, thin heel can also be unstable. Even if with a high, but wide heel, the foot stands much more confidently: it is, of course, also possible to twist the foot in such shoes, but the likelihood of this is less than in stiletto heels. A wedge is the same platform, but only narrow; at the back it can be mistaken for a thin heel. This is not the most stable option, but has other advantages associated with platform shoes. Namely, a smoother transition from the initially raised forefoot to the heel. In total, it is not so harmful to the foot, and the effect of the heel is significant. It is advisable that the sole of the shoe is grooved - not slippery. In addition to the heel height, it is worth paying attention to how easy it is to put on and take off the shoes and how comfortable they are.
. Elevate your legs to improve blood flow. A contrast shower is good for relaxing tired feet. Turn on alternately cool and warm water and direct the stream under pressure onto the plantar part of the foot. You can make circular or longitudinal movements, gradually rising up to the shin. The water should be at a comfortable temperature - not icy or hot. The procedure should be pleasant and last as long as you want. It is better to finish a contrast shower with cool water. After the procedure, it is good to use a foot cream of your choice and wear socks made from natural materials. With increasing gestational age.
. but I want to wear dresses. and what to do next.. continue to hide or give up and put on a dress?
And whoever points the finger is a fool!)))
Good day to all! Please tell me, is there any way to reduce the saltiness of red caviar? Maybe fill it with something. And maybe, who knows recipes involving this delicacy? Thank you.
But what to do if the taste of caviar leaves much to be desired, and it’s a shame to throw it away? You can try to “reanimate” her.
My daughter began to complain that her calves were cramping. Well, of course, she doesn’t say that, but when she sits on the potty or, for example, squats, she gets up and says that her legs have goosebumps and it hurts. where to run, who to show? Whose part is this in terms of doctors?
Good afternoon I don’t know how to react to the current situation, so I’m writing here. The fact is that after I injured my knee, my leg began to increase in size. It all didn’t happen right away, but about 2 months after the bruise went away. First the foot swelled, then everything gradually began to move up the limb. As a result, it turned out that my legs became completely different in thickness. I'm very worried about this. After all, such a nuisance not only takes away the opportunity to wear open clothes, but also makes you think seriously about your health. Sometimes a swollen leg begins to hurt when the weather changes suddenly, causing even more discomfort. Tell me, if one leg is thicker than the other, could the reasons be due to injury or illness? Thank you in advance for your response.
Hello! If one leg is thicker than the other, there may be various reasons. But popularly, all people call this phenomenon elephantiasis. The medical name is lymphedema. This disease does not occur very often, and it can be difficult to get rid of it if you do not seek help in time. Why does it occur and what to do about it?
Lymphedema occurs when a large amount of tissue fluid accumulates under the skin and is not removed from the body. As a result, swelling develops, which only becomes larger over time.
There are two types of lymphedema depending on the causes of the disease: primary and secondary lymphedema. Primary elephantiasis is considered the most dangerous and complex disease, which is extremely difficult to treat. It is due to the fact that some lymph nodes are completely absent or the lymphatic system does not work correctly. Elephantiasis that occurs for this reason is most often treated with surgery, but even then not completely.
The secondary form of the disease is much more common and develops due to a disruption in the flow of lymph, which often occurs against the background of certain infectious and oncological diseases, as well as as a result of injuries. As for oncology, often after cutting out a tumor located in close proximity to the limb, fluid begins to accumulate.
Lymphedema also often develops after a small blood clot forms in a vessel (usually a vein). The risk of developing this disease is increased in people suffering from varicose veins. But if appropriate measures are taken in time, this form of lymphedema can be completely cured.
It is better to immediately go to the hospital when you notice the first signs of this disease, especially if the child has swelling. There, depending on the specific cause, the doctor will prescribe the appropriate treatment. After all, pressing on a limb does not always cause pain, which in most cases forces you to consult a doctor. Reversible edema - when the tissue is still soft, but when pressed, depressions form - is much faster and easier to treat than irreversible lymphedema, when the tissue has already begun to harden. Then complex, painful treatment is often prescribed, which does not always give the desired result.
My respect, ladies and gentlemen!
We owe this article to me, Pavel, Oleg, Valentin and the other male readers of the ABC of Bodybuilding project. They asked their question: muscle asymmetry, what to do? - through the feedback form and wanted to receive a detailed answer. Well, if you want it, then get it!
So, sit down, my dear friends, let's start broadcasting.
I think everyone reading these lines has had this situation in the gym when you are doing an exercise, for example, lifting a dumbbell one at a time for biceps, and suddenly you realize that your left hand is no longer lifting - it’s not pulling the weight, but your right hand can still calmly perform 2 exercises 3 reps. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Also, I’m sure some of you have encountered muscle imbalances or asymmetries - this is when you look at yourself in the mirror and realize that your left pectoral is larger than your right or your left biceps is larger than your right. In training, this manifests itself through the emergence of leading (load-taking) and driven (lagging) muscles. As a result of all this, the athlete cannot fully load the muscles, and one or another muscle group (its mirror analogue) always remains undertrained. In fact, upon visual inspection of your body, it turns out that one muscle is ahead of its fellow in development.
What to do, i.e. How to get out of this situation - to restore balance and in general - what muscle asymmetry is, we will consider further.
For better assimilation of the material, all further narration will be divided into subchapters.
Muscle imbalance is something that most people encounter during their training (and not necessarily specifically iron training). It implies that the strength (and/or size) of muscles on one side of the body is not the same/symmetrical on the other side.
Asymmetry can manifest itself:
These are some of the possible causes of muscle asymmetry; the curvature of the spinal column also makes a significant contribution - deviation of parameters from the norm. Look at the physiological signals corresponding to muscle activity (EMG) and heat maps of the human body in an ideal and standard case.
Such images help doctors identify patients with soft tissue injuries, imbalances in muscle development, and the degree of spinal curvature.
It is worth saying that there are no ideally “even” people, and this is due to the intrauterine development of the fetus. We are all initially in a curled-up position in the womb, and already there the degree of “curvature” of our spine begins to be established. Therefore, if you think that scoliosis (lateral deviation of the spine from the normal straightened position) is purely your thing, then this is not so, almost everyone has it, only its degree varies.
So, we’ve sorted this out, now let’s talk in more detail and scientifically about...
Muscle asymmetry: what, why and why
Human movement and function require a person to balance muscle length and strength between the opposing muscles surrounding the joint. Most joints in our body have two or more separate and opposing sets of muscles acting on it. Muscular balance is the equal amounts of opposing forces between muscles that are necessary to maintain a concentrated (centered) position of a bone in a joint during movement. On the other hand, muscle imbalance occurs when opposing muscles provide different directions of tension due to tightness or weakness.
To understand what we are talking about, look at the following images.
As for the general asymmetry, it can be different, in particular the following:
Regarding muscle groups, asymmetry is most often observed between:
Muscle asymmetry usually occurs in the early stages of training. As soon as you begin to perform an exercise, the brain makes an assessment of which side of the body is easier for it to complete the task. The body then establishes a favorable pattern of movement (stores it into memory), as a result of which the increase in strength and volume occurs unevenly - the most frequently used areas increase faster. Over time, the fine line increases, as a result of which the muscle group constantly “pulling out” the load becomes dominant (stronger, more resilient, more voluminous). This is how asymmetry arises.
How to prevent muscle imbalance? Practical advice.
Bodybuilding is not just muscle mass - it is, first of all, ideal proportions and symmetry. Of course, mere mortals do not necessarily become sculptures with ideal circle shapes, but acquiring some aesthetic physique would not be a bad thing.
Actually, let's do this.
So, there are two types of movements that can be done - bilateral and unilateral. Bilateral - when an athlete uses two limbs (arms, legs) at the same time, for example, lifting a barbell for biceps. Unilateral - when one limb is used, for example, lifting a dumbbell with a hammer grip. Sometimes muscles grow more on one side than the other, and this is due to the dominant side of the body. The presenter always tries to override and do all the work. If we talk about arms/legs, then for right-handers the leading one is the right one, for left-handers, accordingly, the left one.
To bring balance, i.e. to pull equally on different sides (and equalize the volumes), you must adhere to the following tips:
No. 1. Application of unilateral exercises
Add more unilateral exercises to your current PT - this will isolate one side of the body from the other. Use dumbbells, single cables, and any equipment that will help you focus on the weakest side of your body. Also, if possible, avoid machines and use free weights more.
Adjust the number of repetitions of the exercise according to your weakness. It is necessary to start the exercise with the lagging part and perform it until it (for example, the weak left hand) fails, while the right one can still perform it, but the approach must be completed. As a result, the dominant side will be slightly undertrained, which will allow the lagging side to progress and catch up.
No. 3. Correct technique and flexibility
The correct form of performing exercises, taking into account anatomical features, will correct asymmetry. Warming up your muscles beforehand and cooling down/stretching at the end of your workout, focusing on your weaker side, will also help combat muscle imbalances.
No. 4. Strengthening internal muscles and ligaments
Do not forget about ligaments and internal muscles (deep-lying). Strong superficial muscles with weak ligaments/weak core muscles are like a large building without a strong foundation. Use exercises such as dumbbell rotations to strengthen the rotator cuff, side bends with a barbell on your shoulders, lifting your legs and body from a lying position, and a plank.
The greater the muscle mass of the athlete, the less visually noticeable are the disproportions and asymmetries, i.e. the differences are leveled out. So try to gain more lean muscle mass.
No. 6. Increasing the strength of the weak side
When performing exercises, try to consciously place a greater load on the lagging muscles, as if pulling them towards the dominant ones. So, for example, with asymmetry of the chest, you can perform a bench press with different weights on the sides, more, 3-5%, on the lagging one. For example, your left chest is larger than your right, in this case we throw 50 52 on the right and press in this mode. You can do the same with dumbbells. Regarding biceps asymmetry, you can do this. During the biceps curl, move the hand with the smaller biceps muscle closer to the center of the bar, and leave the other in place.
Let's go further and move on to the practical part, namely...
The basic rule that you need to remember to eliminate muscle imbalance is that while working out the following muscle groups, you also need to train their antagonists (and not necessarily in the same workout). Here is a list of such muscle groups:
Make sure your current PT is giving the antagonist muscles an equal share of the training load. This way you will restore balance and build a harmoniously developed body.
In addition, understanding the issues of muscle anatomy and their kinesiology (functions and movements) will help you wisely select exercises and integrate them into your training days. As an example, let’s take the bench press, which in addition to the pectoral muscles also affects the front deltoids and also works the triceps. And so in many other exercises, non-core muscles are indirectly loaded. In this case (during the bench press), the rear deltoids fall out. Therefore, on days of separate shoulder training, it is necessary to work out the posterior bundles (as those that receive less load in the main exercises during the week), and not “hammer” the front and middle heads.
Now let's look at specific routines aimed at correcting muscle imbalances.
PT No. 1. We remove chest asymmetry.
PT No. 2. We remove the asymmetry of the deltas.
Between sets, 1 minute of rest and soon you will be able to see a picture of the growth of lagging areas.
In general, to avoid asymmetry (preventive measures), it is necessary to use a special type of training - a balanced training program. This is a PT that simultaneously focuses on several muscle groups.
It might look like this:
This program should be repeated periodically (twice a week, every 2-3 months), then you will definitely not have any muscle asymmetry.
Well, that’s probably all I’d like to report on, all that remains is to sum it up and say goodbye :).
Today we looked at muscle asymmetry issues. Now you will be as even and proportional as possible, which means you will look more impressive.

This may surprise many, but a sufficient number of women suffer from the thinness of their legs, which to many resemble matchsticks. This problem can be dealt with, the main thing is to increase muscle volume. We will have to work harder and in several directions.
It is important to note that every woman has her own concepts of thick and thin, so there is no specific standard. In addition, the shape of the legs is genetically determined and a person can only correct deficiencies that appear during life. There are several tips on how to get better if you have thin legs:
There are also some women's secrets that will visually increase the volume of your legs.
To get good results, it is recommended to use the following regimen: a day of intense training and a day of rest. You should start with a warm-up to warm up your muscles, which will reduce the risk of injury. Another important tip is to train at a slow pace.
What to do to improve your legs - effective exercises:
You can also increase the volume of your legs by cycling, but you need to take regular walks and ride for at least half an hour.
There are several recommendations that will visually correct the problem. You need to give up short skirts and shorts. It is better to give preference to maxi. Clothing should be voluminous, for example, skirts with pleats or ruffles. For business ladies, classic trousers are suitable. Experts advise choosing clothes with large prints and asymmetrical patterns.
Thick calves are a real punishment for millions of women. Firstly, it doesn’t look very nice, and secondly, problems often arise when buying shoes when, for example, the zipper on the boots doesn’t fit. Thick calves are difficult to hide under clothing. And what woman would want to wear only trousers or long skirts all her life? One thing is clear - you need to find an answer to the question of how to remove calves from your legs.
Let's figure it out. Everyone knows that losing weight usually starts from the top, that is, the face, arms, then the waist acquire the desired shape, and only then comes the turn of the legs, hips and buttocks. Thus, it becomes clear: it is pointless to hope that thick calves will quickly become thin. You will have to work hard to achieve what you want. And experts are not at all happy with the owners of full legs; they claim that nothing can be done about genetics. That is, every woman has a calf volume that can be called minimal for her, and it is unlikely that she will be able to lose weight below it.
So if you're concerned about thick calves, pay attention to your overall body weight. Is your body fat percentage normal? Then, alas, nothing can be done. The constitution of the body is given to you by nature. If you are still determined to fight for slender legs, then you will have to take action.
So, what activities will help you achieve what you want? First of all, dietary restrictions (only reasonable ones). You should definitely stay hydrated and also engage in fitness activities that will be aimed at burning fat. A light massage, specifically on the problem area, won’t hurt.
There are types of physical activity that are aimed at losing weight in calves. But there are some nuances here. Firstly, tension is contraindicated in the calves. That is, strength exercises will not work. In this case, there is a danger of simply over-pumping the calves. But you need a completely different result. Secondly, according to experts, stretching and aerobics are simply vital for women who have the problems described. Calves are great for slimming if a person runs. During the stretching process, muscle fibers lengthen. As a result, the shape of the calves improves. You can find quite a few stretching exercises in yoga or Pilates guidelines. In order for your calves to lose weight while running, you need to choose long distances and a variation of it such as jogging.
In order to bring full calves to normal condition, it is not at all necessary to go to the gym or buy expensive equipment. You can simply rise on your toes and lower yourself back down. This exercise is best performed for 20 repetitions and 4 sets. You can use it both at home and in the office, so you can train your calves regularly. This exercise can be easily complicated, for example, by doing it while standing on steps, that is, with a high amplitude. If you decide to go to a fitness center, then in any room you will probably find special exercise equipment that will be useful for your calves.
The main problem is that during some exercises you can achieve an effect completely opposite to the desired one. Therefore, many people prefer to get by with massage. Of course, you will have to spend a certain amount of money, but the result will exceed all expectations. The most important thing is to find a good specialist, not an amateur. According to happy women who have already managed to tighten their calves through massage, 10-12 sessions are enough to reduce their volume by 4-5 centimeters.
Some ladies recommend body wraps. Although experts deny the effect of such experiments.
If you have thick calves, then you can either accept it or try to use the recommendations outlined in this article. You decide.
Hours in the gym, long runs, strict dietary restrictions...
What sacrifices do women make for chiseled and slender legs! And the results will certainly become visible sooner or later: the buttocks are tightened, fat disappears from the thighs. But the shins do not always respond to effort, and sometimes even become larger.
This may be due to heredity, improper selection or technique of performing exercises, and even lifestyle.
Voluminous calves look inharmonious, interfere with wearing short skirts and tight trousers, and cause complexes. Sometimes the desire to reduce calves reaches the point of absurdity. Thus, in the United States, plastic surgery to correct this part of the body is becoming increasingly popular.
However, there are also less radical ways. Let's find out why calves grow and how to make them slim and graceful.
In order to quickly and correctly get rid of large calves, first of all, you need to find out the main reason for their appearance and try to eliminate it.
The main “culprits” are an excessive layer of subcutaneous fat, too bulky muscles that appeared as a result of training or are a hereditary feature.
Genetics. If large shins are your genetic feature (you can verify this by looking at your parents and closest relatives), then it will be extremely difficult to reduce the muscles in your calves.
You can try to slightly change the proportions of the body and adjust the features of the anatomy. For example, if you have a short Achilles tendon, which connects the back of your heel to your calf muscle, your calves will appear larger. This is due to the fact that the muscle has to stretch far downward to connect to the short tendon.
If the tendon is long, then the place where it connects to the muscle is located higher. As a result, the calf muscle “sits” high, the lower leg looks thinner and more graceful. Unfortunately, it is not possible to lengthen the tendons. The only thing that can be advised in this case is to avoid loads that provoke the growth of the calf muscles.
Gait and movements. Repeated activities day after day can affect the shape of your legs. For example, constantly walking on your toes, with your body weight resting on the forefoot (as when wearing heels), can cause your calf muscles to build up.
It is also worth analyzing your gait: if the rest of the leg muscles are weak, especially the tibialis anterior, the calves can compensate for the entire load, increasing over time. The solution to the problem is comprehensive strengthening of the leg muscles.
Fat deposits are another very common reason why calves appear large. Each person has their own specific problem areas, from which fat is lost last. If it's your calves and ankles, you'll have to be patient and persistent to achieve the legs of your dreams.
To remove thick calves, follow a few simple rules:
Remember, you can be in good physical shape, fit and slim without bulging bulges of muscle. The main thing is to correctly create a training program that includes strength and cardio exercises and avoid exercise and diets that provoke muscle growth. With this tactic, volumes (and not just calves!) will steadily decrease.
Each woman decides for herself how to treat full calves. For example, actresses Mischa Barton and Katie Holmes are not shy about these body parts and look great. Even if you can't reduce your calf size, don't stress about it. Focus on the best parts of your body and highlight them.
