Repeating movements after animals helps you lose weight. How it works

The fat-burning effect is not the only benefit of Animal Gymnastics.

Humans really have a lot to learn from animals. If you have pets, you’ve probably noticed how gracefully cats jump and stretch or how sturdy and active dogs can be. The fitness industry has also noticed these qualities and decided to create the Animal Gymnastics trend – “animal gymnastics”. Let’s find out what it is and how it can be useful to us.

The author’s Animal Gymnastics program is the result of painstaking work in several fitness directions at once: functional training, martial arts, mind&body.

The big plus is that you will not need any additional equipment – you will work only with your own body weight. A group class is 50 minutes with an instructor and energetic music.

Animal Gymnastics has a 20-10 format. This is a kind of “biological tabata” that is built around doing specific protocols and blocks. There are a small number of exercises in the protocol, which means that everyone can easily memorize the bunches. The program is very clear and suitable for all levels of training.

How is this program useful?

Thanks to Animal Gymnastics classes you will become more enduring, alert and energetic, well-coordinated and toned. The program is relevant for those who want to “dry up”, reduce swelling, improve metabolism and begin to gradually change the relief of the body.

“Animal gymnastics” will help develop joint mobility and the body’s tolerance to loads. The body gains strength mobility, power and grace without burning in the muscles, high heart rate zones and violence on the body from a million squats. All of this will get you results quickly and efficiently. It’s also a great practice for overall body wellness and just a fun activity that you definitely haven’t tried yet.
