How To: Stomach Vacuum

Whether you're looking to slim your waistline or build an overall stronger core, the stomach vacuum is an exercise that you can perform daily to work on both. You see, the stomach vacuum works the TA (transverse abdominis) which is the layer of muscle behind your rectus abdominis or "six-pack". As you build this muscle you will have more postural support and the added strength will help "pull-in" your internal organs giving you a slimmer waistline as well as more control over your abdominal area. This will come in handy when trying to create a stronger "internal belt" while perform heavy compound lifts such as deadlifts and squats.

The goal is to hold your stomach in as long as possible without taking a breath. Try performing 15 - 20 holds at the end of your workout and in just a few weeks you will see AMAZING GAINS! #SHFAthlete #HTH
