Is it possible or not to suck in your stomach?
In fact, you can suck in your stomach, but you need to do it wisely. For example, if you are doing physical exercise. There is something in yoga when you need to draw in your stomach as you inhale, and relax it as you exhale. This way, the necessary pumping of the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall is achieved, the organs are saturated with oxygen (after all, the breath is very deep), and the nervous system finds harmony.
Before you begin this exercise, carefully study the recommendations of experts on correct execution. If you feel unwell while doing it, stop.
On the other hand, constantly sucking in your stomach is extremely harmful. Indeed, because of this, posture is disrupted, the natural rhythm of breathing is disrupted, which leads to tangible health problems, because the organs are no longer supplied with oxygen in the required quantities.
In addition, when you suck in your stomach, your intestines also tighten. As a result of frequent abdominal retraction, digestive problems can occur. Squeezing the intestines, although not particularly strong, can still disrupt the natural process.
If a person is prone to the formation of blood clots, even slight compression of the intestinal vessels can lead to quite unpleasant consequences and the development of severe complications.
Did you know that drawing in your stomach is so beneficial? (Uddiyana bandha)
Let's consider the effect of practice from different sides.
If you read this article to the end, you will have a desire to do this exercise every day.
The first tangible result is a reduction in stomach volume. What does this give us?
There are special receptors on the walls of the stomach that send a signal to the brain when the stomach is stretched or compressed. Sometimes, especially in the case of frequent overeating, we perceive these signals as a feeling of hunger and eat until we stretch our stomach to its usual state.
If you regularly perform this exercise, then this signaling system begins to work normally, and a person feels hungry when he lacks nutrients, and leaves the table when he is full, and not because he has stretched his stomach and overeaten. That is, the false feeling of hunger disappears. People suffering from excess weight problem begin to eat less if they perform Uddiyana Bandha. And not because they force themselves, but because they simply want to eat less. Even for this reason alone, this is the best exercise for losing weight. But this is just the beginning, the most interesting is yet to come.
Retracting the abdomen improves blood circulation in the abdominal cavity, stimulating the work of such organs as: stomach, small intestine, pancreas, duodenum, upper part of the liver, gall bladder. The pancreas alone is worth it, considering that it is responsible for the production of insulin. In addition to being an excellent prevention of diabetes, uddiyana also helps normalize metabolism. After all, the absorption of sugar depends on the normal amount of insulin. In addition to the fact that overweight people begin to eat less, the body also stops storing fat and begins to break it down. Has everyone who wants to lose weight already started to suck in their stomach? Who else needs motivation, keep reading...
About Breathing. The diaphragm becomes more elastic and mobile. (The diaphragm is the membrane between the abdominal cavity and the lungs, directly involved in the breathing process). The greater the flexibility of the diaphragm, the less energy the muscles expend on its movement. Accordingly, breathing efficiency increases. The most interesting thing is that an increase in the number of red blood cells in the blood of people who regularly perform uddiyana for a month has been experimentally established (by about 5–10 percent). The penetration of oxygen from the alveoli into the blood depends on them. This means that the efficiency of breathing increases even more, followed by metabolism and energy levels.
Nervous system. Any breath-holding while exhaling contributes to the process of inhibition of the nervous system, and therefore relaxation. Internal tension goes away and energy flows more freely throughout the body. The pressure is normalized, the effect is especially quickly noticeable in people with high blood pressure before starting regular practice. Resistance to stress increases, and all diseases are caused by nerves.
They say, “you’ll chase two birds with one stone...”, but here with one exercise and right away:
- Elimination of false feelings of hunger;
- Prevention of diabetes and other diseases associated with the abdominal organs;
- Increased breathing efficiency;
- Increased energy and vitality;
- Normalization of pressure;
- Increased stress resistance.
And all these are just individual advantages, proven by modern medicine, not to mention the basic purpose - the rise and transformation of energy from lower to upper centers. The main thing to remember is that you can only perform this exercise on an empty stomach (1.5–2 hours after eating).
You can see instructions on the technique in the attached video.
I am often asked the question, after they are convinced of the effectiveness of uddiyana bandha from their own experience: “Why didn’t we know this before? After all, you can talk about this in schools and show it on TV, why is there so little information about this?”
The answer is simple: it is not in anyone’s interest for everyone to be healthy. It’s much more profitable to run drug advertisements.
I respect modern medicine. Great science! She saves millions of lives. But some pharmaceutical companies have gained too much influence by selling pills that relieve symptoms and will not just give up their bread.

How to correct your belly
You can correct your stomach using regular abdominal pumping. Of course, no one is stopping you from adding breathing practice - the results will appear faster.
Do not try to tighten your stomach with a belt or corset. You will simply overtighten it, which will cause the same problems as in the case of intestinal pinching.
Experts recommend learning not to suck in your stomach, but to tense your abdominal muscles. You don't have to breathe deeply to do this. You just need to be able to turn your muscles into stone. In this case, you will have beautiful abs without any harm to your health.
Bodyflex
This training option is not available to beginners. The fact is that the main difficulty of this technique is not the correctly retracted stomach, but breathing. First, you need to learn to close your lips tightly and not try to breathe through your nose.
Once you see the result, hold your breath, lower your head to your chest and focus completely on your stomach. Now you need to retract it. How to learn to suck in your stomach this way?
First of all, you need to count to yourself as slowly as possible. At this moment, you need to constantly retract your stomach so that you feel like it is sticking to your back. The intestines and stomach will rise under the ribs.
Once you count to 8, slowly relax your stomach and inhale.
The optimal counting style is to repeat each number three times. Beginners are advised to count to 4, gradually increasing the time of tension.
The main reasons that provoke the occurrence of diastasis
The cause of the disease lies in a long-term increase in intra-abdominal pressure, which is “superimposed” on damage to the structure of the fibers that form the abdominal wall. According to experts, abdominal diastasis in women occurs as a result of the following most common reasons:
Pregnancy. Abdominal pressure increases due to stretching of the abdominal wall and other changes in the body and body of a pregnant woman. Diastasis manifests itself most clearly in multiple pregnancies, the presence of a large fetus, a previous caesarean section, as well as an early start of physical activity after childbirth.
Muscle and tendon incompetence. In mature women, deformation due to tissue failure occurs quite rarely, and, as a rule, occurs as a result of the already mentioned HIV infection (up to 3% of infected patients). At the same time, underdevelopment of the muscle fibers of the abdominal wall becomes one of the reasons for the divergence of the white line in infants. This problem is most often observed in premature babies.
Diastasis in men can be provoked by long-term exposure to such factors as: • work activity associated with frequent lifting of heavy loads; • active sports, which also involves lifting a lot of weight; • excess weight, accompanied by a significant deterioration in muscle tone; • sudden weight loss or gain; • increase in intra-abdominal pressure (for example, with a strong cough, constipation, difficulty urinating, etc.); • hereditary predisposition (for example, genetic weakness of connective tissue).
What happens if you constantly suck in your stomach?
It's no secret - if you suck in your stomach, it will visually shrink. A flat, tucked-in stomach looks really attractive. Girls who naturally have a flat stomach always feel confident and stylish in any outfit. They can safely appear in a tight-fitting dress, which favorably emphasizes their shape, or in thigh-high jeans and a top, attracting the admiring glances of not only men, but also women who strive for the same result to their bare belly.
Few people know what will happen if you constantly suck in your stomach. If you regularly maintain your posture and draw in your stomach not only in public, but also at home, when performing ordinary activities, such as cooking or cleaning, the result will not be long in coming. The body will develop the habit of constantly straining the abdominal muscles and pulling excess inside, away from prying eyes. Thanks to this, unconscious daily training will occur and, after a while, there will be a noticeable decrease in both the volume of the belly and excess folds.
Prevention of diastasis: is it possible to avoid the problem?
None of us is immune from abdominal muscle discrepancy, especially if a person is characterized by weakness of connective tissues. In this case, you should treat your body much more carefully. For example, it is advisable to refuse work activities associated with significant physical activity and regular heavy lifting. Sports exercises should also be chosen without lifting weights. And, of course, training to strengthen the abdominal muscles, proper nutrition and control of muscle mass will be extremely useful for everyone.
If you constantly walk with your stomach pulled in, will your muscles become stronger and your waist will shrink?

Pulling in your stomach is really very beneficial. This is one of the main micro-exercises that we can do on our own at any time and anywhere. Moreover, it is not necessary to strive to suck in your stomach all the time. It is enough to do several sessions a day - 20-30 times: tense, hold for a few seconds, relax. This exercise will help you remove a few centimeters from your waist in a couple of weeks.
What should be the diet so that the stomach is always as flat as possible (not bloated)?
Irina Bryskova · ·
In my personal experience, you can afford everything in your diet. Bloating/not bloating is influenced solely by the state of the intestinal microflora. If everything is in order with your digestion, then neither flour, nor cabbage, nor legumes will create discomfort. If there is discomfort, drink something to normalize the microflora. In any case, it will be useful because it will strengthen the immune system. In general, for me it turned out to be heaven and earth: before normalization and after. Ideally, during normal functioning, the intestines should cope with everything, and this is so!
What foods can cause an adult's stomach to swell?
Romina G. ·
Most often, bloating due to increased gas formation in the intestines occurs due to poor nutrition. If this problem occurs, you should exclude cabbage, milk and fermented milk products, legumes, carbonated drinks, etc. from your diet. More information about the list of products - https://dometod.ru/zdorovie/produkty-vyzyvayushhie-vzdutie-zhivota.html
To reduce the risk of gas formation, it is recommended to reduce the amount of seasonings when cooking, not talk while eating, reduce the number of servings, but eat more often (for example, instead of eating 3 times a day, divide the portions into 5 times) and of course be less nervous. It is important to remember that if you experience persistent bloating, you should consult a doctor.
Why and why do women have round butts, unlike men?
Christina Khrustalnaya ·
The accumulation of adipose tissue in a woman’s body serves for procreation. Women are rounded in those places of the body where the most important function is to protect and bear a child, those places that are vulnerable.
In general, it’s a little strange to compare the female and male bodies. because the main hormone of a man is testosterone - what it does and what it is responsible for, as well as about the main hormone in a woman’s body - estrogen, you can google it to understand a little gender differences.
Fat and all the hormones that contribute to it are important for a woman, more than for a man, precisely because females are procreators.
By the way, many obese guys have the body type of a woman - hips that are not typical for a man, etc. - because Fast food with excess fat accumulates the female hormone in the body.
So guys with tendons and hair are like that thanks to the male hormone... something like that...
What does sperm taste like?
Aisa Tsana
It depends on what the man ate, whether he smokes, drinks alcohol or takes medications, etc. . Taste is also affected by health status. A man who smokes, drinks, etc. will have bitter sperm. A healthy man who has eaten sweets will have a salty or even sweet-tasting sperm.

What can cause the feeling that the organs in the solar plexus area are pushing back, it’s difficult to breathe, and strange pain in the stomach?
Boklin Andrey Kuzmich
Good afternoon. The answer to your question involves quoting a fairly large amount of information. Those. At a glance, there are about 30 diseases and conditions, with different specializations. Therefore, you can find out the specifics only at an appointment with a doctor.
It is important for you to exclude dangerous conditions , which include:
· Infarction or ischemia of cardiac tissue.
· Traumatic injuries - such as a ruptured spleen or rib fractures.
· Diseases related to the “acute abdomen” - perforated ulcer, pancreatitis, cholecystitis, appendicitis, etc.
Once again, these are life-threatening conditions with possible similar manifestations that must be excluded.
Or perhaps this is just a manifestation of intercostal neuralgia or osteochodrosis of the thoracic spine. And a basic course of local anti-inflammatory drugs will help cope with unpleasant symptoms quite quickly.
Therefore, if these manifestations are not temporary, start by visiting a specialist.
Best regards, stay healthy.
Why do some people eat a lot and have a sunken stomach, and some (also thin) eat less, but their stomach is always protruding?
Vladimir Yaroshevsky · 1
DD. I will assume that the situation is related to the number of writing techniques and their volume. With a calorie content of 2 kcal/day, you can split them into 4 doses, while the volume of food per reception and the increase in the “belly” are minimized. Or get yours in fast food in 1 meal, and the increase in the “belly” will be visible immediately after eating. This is one of the factors.
How can diastasis be cured?
The good news is that diastasis can be successfully treated, but it is still better not to let your condition reach the point where only surgical intervention can help. As for the initial stage of the disease, in many cases it can be eliminated with dietary nutrition and special exercises. However, in the case of diastasis during pregnancy, these exercises should be performed no earlier than 4–6 months after the baby is born.
The first step to treating abdominal diastasis is to strengthen your abs with exercises. Fortunately, the basic abdominal exercises for diastasis are extremely simple and straightforward, so you can do them almost anytime and anywhere. This is a normal abdominal retraction: you will need to “hold” the abdominal cavity in a depressed state for literally one second, after which you should slowly return to the starting position.
The next workout is as follows: lying on your back, you need to slightly lift your upper body off the floor and hold in this position for about 30 seconds. This exercise must be repeated at least 25 times.
Next, in the same lying position, we raise our legs from the floor. And you can complete this simple health complex by alternately lifting your legs and upper body. Believe me, at the initial stage of diastasis, photos of your stomach before and after such exercises will make a significant difference, not to mention the improvement in your well-being.
In addition, during conservative treatment of discrepancy in the linea alba, it is recommended to observe the following: • do not lift or carry heavy objects; • if you need to lift something, you should squat with your legs bent instead of bending over and keep your back straight; • get out of bed on your side, leaning on your hand, and sit down in the same way; • when coughing hard, try not to protrude your stomach.
