Whether you’re at work or at home, this simple exercise can help lower blood sugar levels while also strengthening calf muscles.
Getting back into a daily exercise routine isn’t always easy, but there are simple yet effective exercises that can help maintain an ideal weight without too much effort. One such exercise is a discreet seated routine that can be done both in the office and at home, and is a favorite of French biochemist Jessie Inchauspé, also known as the Glucose Goddess.
It’s no secret that regulating our blood sugar has become a primary concern, especially when it comes to beauty. Proper blood sugar management is crucial not only for maintaining your figure but also for your skin’s health. It helps sustain a healthy lifestyle and also prevents serious illnesses like diabetes. Furthermore, blood sugar levels play a significant role in how we manage our emotions, affecting our daily feelings and thoughts. Additionally, spikes in blood sugar during the day can lead to sudden hunger pangs and chronic fatigue. To combat this, a quick ritual practiced by Glucose Goddess herself proves to be very effective in reducing blood sugar levels after meals. This practice stimulates blood circulation, enhances venous return, and improves insulin sensitivity, which helps keep blood sugar levels normal.
Commonly known as “calf pumps,” this easy exercise involves simply rising onto the balls of your feet by lifting your heels off the ground. Make sure your weight is evenly distributed on the front of your foot. You only need to hold the position for a second before slowly lowering back down with control. You can then repeat the exercise 10 or 15 times depending on your preference, taking a short break between sets. “This routine, which is very easy to implement, engages the soleus muscle in the calf, which ultimately helps burn fat and regulate blood sugar levels while you remain seated!” explains Jessie Inchauspé. Of course, it can also be performed standing or with added weights to increase the difficulty.
By contracting the muscles, the body uses glucose as a source of energy, which lowers blood sugar levels. Incorporating this exercise into a regular routine can help maintain a healthy weight while promoting long-term mobility and stability. So, are you ready to give it a try?
