Make every exercise a lymphatic drainage exercise ☝🏻 This is exactly what we do in my Pilates Linfodrenante. Tweaking standard exercises to keep them effective for toning your muscles, but improving their ability to drain and reduce water retention. Try these swaps: - instead of a regular glute bridge, do a shoulder bridge pointing and flexing your top foot. Reach one leg long; inhale, flex the foot, lower your leg as you lower your hips (check your hips: they should be square as you lower the leg); exhale, lift your hips high, as you lift the leg and point the foot - instead of a glute bridge hold with toe taps, try a glute bridge thread the needle: inhale, send the top leg under the standing leg (your hips will naturally shift), exhale, press the foot of the standing leg into the mat and lift the top leg up - instead of regular static lunges, try a reverse lunge with stabilization. Inhale, step one leg back as you bend both knees; exhale, lift the back leg up as you find your balance - instead of doing regular supine toe taps, do them with long legs. Gravity will help the drainage. And if you point the foot to lower and flex to lift, the drainage will be even greater. Just small adjustments for big results! Give it a try! Follow for more!
