The Best Hidden AB Exercise for Flat and Tight ABS!
Many people do tons of sit-ups, crunches, bicycle kicks, and whatnot. Yes, they do help tone your abs, but there's something better than that. But of course, you should implement all ab exercises within your workout regime to get the best results, however, this specific exercise is mostly hidden from the newbies in fitness because it's not discussed as much as cardio, losing fat, and doing simple ab exercises.
This hidden exercise will change the whole game. Your midsection will be transformed dramatically; you'll develop better posture, better stability, and it'll create more of an aesthetic appearance.
When you're trying to develop a nice core, you must eat right (healthy) and exercise to have abs (and of course low body fat). Sometimes the simple ab exercises just don't do the job. Perhaps it could be the lack of technique, or not having a proper diet and nutrition in place. Or both. But if you try this exercise, it'll change the game forever. But! Remember, diet and nutrition is KEY when it comes to having a well nice toned midsection (abs).
Stomach Vacuums!
The Stomach Vacuum is an isometric contraction (tenses the muscle without moving it) of the Transversus Abdominus. A stronger Transversus Abdominus can create a stronger Valsalva Maneuver (the powerful exhale necessary to contract a muscle during an intense workload).
This is one of the best exercises you can perform to shrink your waistline in a very short amount of time.
Many can knock 2 to 4 inches off their midsection in as little as 3 weeks with this technique. Also, building this area of the abdominal muscle will help you gain more control over your "abs" and assist you better in explosive lifts. Stomach Vacuums take practice, but they are extremely effective.
To execute the Stomach Vacuum
stand upright and place your hands on your hips, and exhale all the air out of your lungs, completely. Expand your chest, and bring your stomach in as much as possible, and hold. Visualize trying to touch your navel to your backbone. One isometric contraction of "X" seconds is one repetition.
Once mastered, the Stomach Vacuum can be performed in a standing, kneeling, seated, and lying position. Now you will have no excuse to avoid abdominal training if you are stuck in traffic.
As an added bonus, you can use the Stomach Vacuum when doing your regular abdominal work. Focus on pulling in on the Transverse Abdominus. Simply do this by pulling in your stomach as far as you can and flex your groin muscles, as if you are trying to stop the flow of urine.
