Improving waist line..try these..

[Rexbo]

Ive looked at pics of Zane doing his famous front lat spread vacuum. ALot of other guys flex their abs hard, to try and show developement. He was the first to do the vacum, he looks like a Greek GOd when he does it.
Totally radical!

Do these things really work? I don't see how simple sucking in your stomach and holding your breath does anything.

It works some muscle, but I'm not sure which one, but you know how if someone just trains their chest they will become very hunched over because their pecs will pull on their shoulders, I think it's sort of the ssame principle here, but correct me if I'm wrong

oh and it never hurts to have a bigger lung capacity either

 

[bignate73]

the transverse abdominus lies deep to the rectus abdominus (six pack). the fibers of that muscle (TVA) run, basically, around your body like a corset, so when you contract said muscle it shortens. basically you tighten the belt. over time you develop some tone in that muscle similar to what was mentioned with overdeveloping the chest (hunching over). that tension causes the waistline to draw in. having control over your TVA is not only beneficial to a persons posture and core stability, but also for bodybuilding purposes in posing.

3 times a week , 3 sets will get your waist down in less than 2 months..just speaking from proper experience.

Here is the proper way to do them, for those who wants to shed off some inches around the waist.

Start on all fours in the yoga postion .

Do 5 holds as long as you can........... first you blow out all of your air ,then try and suck your belly button to the back bone........... but dont breathe in any air.

Once you get to where you can do five -30 sec holds -with only a breath or 2 inbetween.

then try doing them while kneeling on your knees............ once you can do the 5- 45 sec holds-. do them standing.

then once you can do the 5 one minute holds standing......... start practicing poses.

and walla............ waist go bye bye

2 helpful hints.

1- if your fat you will not think your sucking in all that much........ belive me you are.

2-you will throw up if you do these on a full stomach.

happy sucking

Haha, well then I shouldn't have tried them after just drinking, eating tons of beef jerky, having a severe stomach ache, and walking eighteen or so miles on bike trails with my friend.

Woahhhh I feel GOOD!
