Stomach Vacuum and Abs Training

Stomach Vacuum and Abs Training

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a big fan of practising the stomach vacuum as part of my abs training. This is not just for vanity reasons, in that it helps keep your midsection tight and prevents any stomach distention (plus it looks cool!). But also for the overall health benefits of training the Transverse Abdominis for a strong core and healthy lower back.

Normally I like to include stomach vacuums as part of my abs training. I mix vacuums in with each abs exercise I do, in that I hold a vacuum for a second or so after each rep. I try and do this daily if I have time.
These are some of the exercises I do.

Dan’s Fear of Failure Rant

https://howistayfit.com/focus/fear-of-failure-rant/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRl_JMSj0mc&feature=youtu.be Dan’s Fear of Failure Rant Dan’s Fear of Failure Rant – random thoughts from the kitchen! Too many people waste their potential in life… a deep topic here! Clearly this dieting is taking it’s toll right now haha! It’s true though.  It absolutely kills me how many people I see waste their potential. This isn’t limited to fitness! People’s fear of failure paralyses them in all areas of their life!  They are scared to even try something in case they don’t succeed. Successful people are often idealised for their achievements.  But what you don’t hear about is how many times they had to keep trying and failing in order to succeed! There are no larger restraints on our potential than those we place on ourselves!  Be amazing.  Be awesome!  Get in the game. Have a go at least.  And if you get knocked down, learn ...

Traps Training

But the problem is that unless you walk around all day without a shirt on, nobody will even know you have that coveted six pack! But a big pair of traps on the other hand, are noticeable with or without a shirt on! Even while wearing a long sleeve shirt! I don’t think any other body part can get the same admiration and attention even while covered up! Trapezius By “traps”, I am of course referring to the trapezius muscle, that is visible on top of the shoulders, tying in the shoulders to the neck. In my opinion it gives the impression of a powerful strong physique! How to train your traps The traps are hit INDIRECTLY through exercises like deadlifts and rows. And to an extent presses, pull ups, and pull downs. They are also used in back squats. But to isolate and hit t...
