Weight loss has always been a popular topic, with numerous methods available. Chisato Katori, president of the Bijiku Association and a renowned Japanese fitness expert, has developed a slimming technique that involves placing a towel between the ankles. This not only effortlessly tones the adductor muscles but also corrects pelvic alignment, readjusting the position of internal organs and tightening the abdominal area. In just three months, she lost an impressive 53 pounds (24 kilograms).
The adductors collectively refer to the muscles on the inner side of the thighs. Ms. Katori mentioned in a health magazine that these muscles engage when the legs shift from being apart to coming together, but they are rarely used in daily activities. Weak adductors may cause the thighs to stay consistently apart, contributing to the gradual expansion of the lower part of the pelvis. Consequently, the position of internal organs shifts downward, leading to a protruding lower abdomen.
