What do you think of an abs workout? Yes, I am curious to know why so many people put emphasis on this particular part of their bodies. My body is not that bad. But, I suppose if I am going to be honest, it is not that good, either. To find out what I am missing, I contacted a friend of mine who is a personal trainer.
Apparently, it is important to keep your abdomen strong. My doctor stated that not exercising your “core” is like building a home with out a footer (foundation). He told me that the stronger the core, the stronger the body. The weaker the core, the weaker the body. So far I was following his lead.
Unless you are totally incapacitated, you use your abdomen muscles everyday. Almost from the moment you awaken. The simple task of sitting up requires an engagement of your stomach fibers to propel you into that ninety-degree (seated) angle. Your breathing also incorporates the use of the muscles in your stomach area. It only makes sense to strengthen them.
Transversus Abdominis were the next difficult words. Goodness me! I hope I never have to spell it. My doctor said that very few people know this part of the abdomen exists! I wondered why. He said it is a part of the abdomen that cannot easily be seen. So, most also do not know this helps you to shoot out air forcefully from your lungs. I never realized this.
Rectus Abdominis. This is the name of the actual muscles we call “abs”. Their main capacity is to “flex” you forward from your waistline. We train these like crazy trying to obtain that glorious “six pack”. I have a friend who says he is working on a “keg.”
Obliques. These muscles help with side movements and stabilizing posture. The obliques help with rotation. It is imperative that these are exercised to keep them strengthened. You can find many different types of exercises that will help you accomplish this feat.
I have four children. I never want to be a burden to any of them. I know having those stomach muscles are quite endearing to many people. But I am not going to show off my middle to anyone. I simply want to be able to have a long, healthy life. I now know strengthening my core will help this to happen.
I have been able to find quite a few books on the subject of six pack abs workout. I never stopped to think of all the information provided for this one area of the body. Terry also told me I can find a wealth of encouragement on the Internet for your six pack abs workout. I was told to begin slow, progressing steadily as each day goes by. I am determined to make this work. Wish me luck!
