Singer and musical actress Ok Joo-hyun revealed a video of herself belly dancing.
Recently, Ok Joo-hyun posted a video on her social media with the caption, “During the day, as a soldier… I protect France, and at night, I take off my uniform and live the double life of Oscar.” In the video, Ok Joo-hyun is practicing for a musical while belly dancing. Her slim body that makes it hard to believe she’s 44 years old also catches the eye.
Dance that rotates the abdomen, waist, and hips… Improves flexibility and has a dieting effect
The belly dance that Ok Joo-hyun is practicing is a dance that focuses on rotating the abdomen, waist, and hips, and originated in ancient Egypt. The main movements are rhythmically shaking the upper body and hips and rotating the body. The movements that swing the waist, hips, and arms help to make the body move more smoothly and increase flexibility.
Since you use your body in moderation, you can expect a diet effect because you exercise a lot. According to a study published in the Journal of Korean Dance Science, women aged 40 to 60 who belly danced had lower body fat percentage, body mass index (BMI), and abdominal obesity rate than women who did not. Women who did not belly dance had higher neutral fat.
Movements that stimulate the waist and abdomen…helps create a slim waist and remove side fat
Belly dancing, which uses the waist a lot, is also beneficial for creating a slim waist. By focusing on the upper body rather than the lower body and performing various movements that stimulate the waist and abdomen, the abdominal muscles are strengthened and the movement of the intestines is also promoted. It is beneficial for creating a body without fat like Ok Joo-hyun.
If you look at the ‘lip cage circle’, known as a representative belly dance movement, you can get effects such as losing fat on the sides and strengthening the buttock muscles. For this movement, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and slightly bend both knees. Pull the buttocks that are pushed back forward, relax your shoulders, and place your hands on your pelvis. In this state, fix the lower body and push the upper body forward while breathing.
The ‘hip sway’ movement is also effective in removing the love handles. For this movement, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and in the figure 11. Then, stretch your right leg and roll your side as if you were wringing laundry. The ‘Egyptian shumi’ movement, which lifts your stomach, is done by bringing your knees together and pushing them forward as if you were skimming. You can dance quickly and make your stomach tremble.
Belly dancing, which has many health benefits, requires warm-up exercises like any other exercise. If you do not stretch properly or try to do excessive movements, you risk injury. Since the pelvis and waist are used, it is important for those with weak waists to practice movements that are suitable for them. Those with stiff muscles due to lack of exercise or those with back pain should avoid movements that excessively bend the waist.
