Usually, they are surprised at this time. I feel like I've gained weight! Entering the winter dormancy mode, the footplate is likely to become larger

I believe everyone has heard of the saying that "sitting for a long time will make your lower body bigger." In a video shot by physical therapist SunGuts, he analyzed why sitting for a long time will make the lower body bigger. The reason turned out to be caused by "lower cross syndrome"!

"Lower Cross Syndrome" is common in office workers who sit in front of the computer for more than 7 to 8 hours at work. The sitting posture causes certain muscles in the body to divide into two groups, one group is shortened for a long time In this state, another group of muscles will be stretched for a long time. Over time, the length of the muscles will vary.

Shortened muscles (such as the muscles of the back and thighs) will become tight, and stretched muscles (such as the muscles of the abdomen and buttocks) will become weak, resulting in "lowering". "Crossed Syndrome", which in turn causes the problem of anterior pelvic tilt. With such an anterior pelvic tilt, the weak buttocks will look loose and loose when standing, which will give a visual reaction of the penis becoming larger.
