Every one of us wants to look fit and healthy. But our hectic lifestyle and workloads do not let us live in a healthy way. We try so hard to lose weight and try various ways of sweating it out and burning calories, like jogging, running, swimming, cycling and we even end up going to gym centers. But, it consumes a lot of time and hard work. Well, there is some good news – you can lose weight in as little time as a week. Here is an easy step by step tutorial that will help you out!

7 Days Program To Healthy And Long Lasting Weight Loss

Yoga is a great way to lose weight if practiced regularly using the right form. This effective yoga program (in the order given) needs to be practiced for just 30 minutes a day. You will have only 7 asanas to practice as an entire program. Hence, start reducing weight in a healthy way with these fantastic yoga asanas.

Program Details:

Day 1 – The Swaying Tree Pose: Tiriyaka Taadasan

This simple practice will encourage the body to burn fat.

This is a gentle practice for everyone that stretches the muscles of the entire body. It is one of the best asanas to lose weight and is also good for post pregnancy weight loss. With regular practice, you will be able to go progressively lower on each side. How low you are able to go is linked with how much weight you lose. The pose starts to change ‘fat cell memory’ and gets the body to loosen the fat around the waist, abdomen, and above the chest. This is also a good stretching practice to begin a yoga fitness session. Do this slowly, as shown in the video; repeat 2 to 3 times.

Day 2 – The Angular Pose: Konasana Variation

This is a combination of 3 related postures in a series called Virabhadrasana. After the first 3 standing asanas, this one will strengthen the arms, shoulders, thighs and back muscles, all in one go. This intense, hatha yoga asana will not allow you to relax.

Practice the 3 variations thrice each time to complete 9 rounds. In the beginning, you could start with 1 round and gradually increase over time. Each time try to stay in each pose for a longer duration. Start with 10 seconds and increase to 30 seconds. Once you do this asana, you will realize why it is good for weight loss.

You may sit down and relax for a few minutes after the first four asanas and take a few small sips of water.

Day 5 – Working the Grinding Mill Pose: Chakki Chalasana

Loss of stubborn body fat with this sure shot asana.

So far, all the asanas were standing ones. This one is a seated one and is called Chakki Chalasana. This is known to be one of the best weight loss yoga asanas. It can be strenuous, so practice it slowly and carefully. You will actually go breathless.

Make sure you do not slouch or curve your back to avoid back problems. Start with 5 rotations on each side. Do this 3 times. Gradually increase to as many as 20 rotations on each side for 7 to 8 times. This one yoga asana targets stubborn fat on the stomach, waist, hips, and thighs. After this practice, you may relax for a few minutes.
