And so, “mandarin” is the fruit of a citrus shrub. But not all that is sold in our supermarkets is tangerines, often hybrids: Mandarin + grapefruit = tangerine - a smaller orange, with an easy-to-clean skin. Mandarin + grapefruit = natsumikan - a sweetish taste. Mandarin + orange = tangora - bright orange pulp, sweet taste, flattened shape. Mandarin + wild lemon = citrandarin - a relatively sour taste. Mandarin (Satsum) + Ichang = Ichandarin - also sour, but has small sizes. Mandarin + kumquat = calamondine - very small tangerines. Mandarin + orange-bead = clementine - very sweet - the most common. Why do so many of us love these citrus fruits so much? The answer is simple: they are very useful, which is why the body requires! Beneficial features: 1. An excellent source of vitamin C and magnesium 2. Mandarins are a decongestant 3. Very useful in diabetes - lower blood sugar 4. The essential oil from this citrus is uplifting 5.

Inhale-exhale During the execution of any exercise, exhalation must fall on its most difficult part - the one when the muscles are most strained. The fact is that during inspiration, intra-abdominal and blood pressure increase and the load on the cardiovascular system increases. To add to this also the load from the movement being performed is clearly not worth it. In addition, it is easier to concentrate on exhalation. For example, when performing a squat, you need to exhale when lifting. When lifting two legs lying on your back, exhale should be done when lowering the legs, when the abdominal muscles are most strained. Performing push-ups, exhale should be done on the elbow straightening. Performing twisting, exhale should be done while lifting the body. ERRORS The biggest mistake is holding your breath! Some people, when doing exercises, completely stop breathing. Is it dangerous. Holding the breath during the exercise and the resulting lack of oxygen can lead to weakness and even short-term loss of consciousness. IF YOU ARE BREATHING ... Most likely, this is a signal that you have chosen an activity of too high intensity. No need to engage in force, it is better to slow down. This is important: when breathing goes astray, the body stops burning fat because it does not receive enough oxygen. Reduce the number of repetitions, replace jumping with squats, reduce the amplitude of movements, pause. These are only temporary measures; let the body calmly get in shape. Very soon he will get used to the load, and his breath will not go astray. CONCLUSIONNeed to follow proper breathing during training! Otherwise, the exercises may seem harder than they really are. Moreover, as we found out, a lack of oxygen inhibits the burning of fat, so that improper breathing is not only dangerous, but also inhibits the desired process of improving the figure.
