Stomach Vacuum and Abs Training

admin 18/03/2019

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.

I talk about this in a previous post here!

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.

Another Supplement That Works! My “A-Bolic4” Review

https://howistayfit.com/training/abolic4/ Another Supplement That Works! My “A-Bolic4” Review admin 28/02/2019 As you probably already know, I am generally not a big fan of nutritional supplements. The reason being, is that most of the time I don’t notice any results that warrant spending money on them. Apart from Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), I usually just stick to the few basics like whey protein, creatine, omega-3 fish oil, and multi-vitamins. However, I am quite excited by the results of a new supplement that I have been experimenting with: A-Bolic4 A-Bolic4 The product I have been using is called A-Bolic4. It is made by an American company called The Lab, and it is marketed as an “anabolic growth supplement”. They claim that it “supports anabolic growth, increased metabolism, cellular integrity, and male sexual health”. My Experience Before I talk more about the supplement, and what’s in it, let me talk about my res...

“Starvation Mode”

“Starvation Mode” It is quite likely that you have come across the term “starvation mode” before. If you are dieting and exercising, but you are not seeing progress, then a common self-diagnosis is that your body has gone into “starvation mode”. In this post I am going to reassure you that this is simply not the case! Read on! Here’s a common scenario You were trying to lose weight, so you decreased your calorie intake and stayed disciplined to your workout routine. You were happy to see your bodyweight readings going down, and your physical appearance was beginning to look slimmer and leaner. Then all of a sudden, for no apparent reason, all progress appeared to stop! You didn’t cheat on your diet. You didn’t skip any workouts. So, you do what most of us do when we have a problem. You search online. You talk to your friends. And you soon come to the conclusion that you are not losing weight because ...

Clients’ Progress – it’s more than how you look!

https://howistayfit.com/life/client-progress-health/ Clients’ Progress – it’s more than how you look! How about we consider Health for a moment when we think about Fitness… Fitness is MORE than just your looks and appearance. Instagrammers, take note: fitness is not just about how you look! I see the people I work with make awesome transformations, but these are NOT solely physical changes to their appearance. I see them make positive changes to their health and their wellbeing. They change mentally and psychologically, as well as often physically. Yes, clients’ physiques change. They lose body fat, they tone up, they gain muscle, and they gain strength. But so often many more changes than this take place, that you just CANNOT capture on camera. My point here, is NOT to put too much emphasis on the way you look when it comes to gauging your fitness progress. And of course, usually the worst thing you can d...
