Many dieting programs would never share such a secret with you.
Maybe they don’t want you to know this simple trick because they’re afraid they’ll lose a customer, or maybe they just don’t know any better.
Luckily for you readers seeking such information, I’m going to share this insider secret for free.
To briefly introduce myself to this topic, I’m going to give you a brief description of myself, and why I know this type of information.
I am an actual client myself and am very fortunate to have Mike Geary, a professional and certified nutritionist who is also my personal trainer, to help me with my fitness program.
I started taking his advice, and actually under his training program when I got bored with my beer belly – even though I haven’t touched a beer in decades! Perhaps this simple exercise may surprise you as it doesn’t burn fat on its own, but the results will speak for themselves – once you start to flatten your stomach.
This simple – yet effective exercise is called the “ab vacuum”.
In Mike’s own professional words he says that this “ab vacuum” exercise helps immensely in tightening up the lazy abdominal muscles that will get toned through this type of physical activity. He also wrote a physical training guide detailing why it was developed and the precise method needed to prevent another such incident.
Through its simplicity and my own personal busy daily work life, I have found that the best time for me to do them is during my daily commute to work.
Now a word of caution: doing them while driving may not be for everyone. Make sure to remain a safe driver.
If you find that this exercise may distract your driving ability, please do not do this exercise while driving.
After all, this exercise can be done anywhere and at any time of the day.
Ab vacuum exercises strengthen your deep transversus abdominis muscles and therefore pull back that “beer belly overhang,” as I like to call it.
The main reason I do them while driving is because it doesn’t matter what position you’re in, you can do them standing or sitting down. It makes my daily boring and mandatory commute more worthwhile as I am not just wasting any precious time driving but also getting exercise on my commute.
So let’s go through this simple process for this abdominal workout.
I’ll break it down into four simple steps for you to follow:
- step 1: Start breathing as deeply as possible.
- step 2: Start exhaling by pulling your stomach inward as much as possible.
- Tip: Try to imagine that you are being challenged to try to touch your spine by inhaling your belly. It works wonders for me.
- step 3: Take short breaths and stay in this position for about 10 seconds (initially).
- step 4: Repeat this process several times.
that it! You’ve recently managed to do the “ab vacuum” exercise with great success.
A word of advice…
As with all training, start slowly and increase your intervals when you feel the exercise is getting too easy for you.
For example, start by squeezing your abs for about 10 seconds before increasing this interval to a longer period, such as 15 or 20 seconds, as you get used to this simple, yet very effective exercise.
As I mentioned earlier, this exercise doesn’t increase fat burning, it only helps flatten that bulky belly with lazy deep ab muscles.
If you really want those strong “six-pack abs” with a deep abdominal line, you need more help in the form of a professional workout program, certainly more than this simple exercise.
Remember that there is no real value when it comes to your health and looking healthy and attractive. You will need to do some weekly exercise and eat properly. The funny thing I’ve learned during my personal experience is that you can still eat almost anything you want, as long as it’s in moderation, when training for just a few minutes weekly. goes. As long as the right exercise is done then our body can remain fit.
A good specific example would be the belly overhang, where it would be suggested through bad information and logical understanding that most people think they should start doing a lot more sit-ups. This couldn’t be further from the truth, unfortunately. Sit-ups will tone the abdominal muscles but they will still be under the belly overhang, especially if it is belly fat.
So when your abdominal muscles become rock hard with too many painful sit-ups, you still can’t see them!
The specific example above is just one of many more problems where professional advice should be sought, either through a professional coach or at least invest in a professional authority book on the subject, where the author has a reputation as a professional coach. Be it a career or be a nutritionist. That way you’re not wasting your time and energy on bad training exercises that will either get you nowhere or produce minimal results. Take this friendly advice from my own personal experience, because I learned it the hard way.
