Diet and Exercise Planning: Transversus Abdominus
Learn more about today’s diet and exercise planning tip; how to achieve the flat tummy.
Exercising your transversus abdominus muscle creates the flat tummy everyone dreams of achieving. This muscle holds in your stomach much like how a corset keeps your tummy from bulging. When this muscle is weak, your tummy becomes distended and looks much bigger, similarly like a beer belly or pot belly.
There are two versions to strengthen this muscle. These exercises are not that difficult. The first involves you exhaling all the air from your lungs hard while at the same time pulling your tummy in tight as if your belly button can touch your spine. Breathe lightly in this position and hold the posture for approximately 45 seconds. Repeat the exercise for a few more sets. This exercise teaches your abs to continuously hold your tummy in, giving a flat appearance.
The second version involves you being on all fours in a crawling position. Do the exercise as described above, except that you are on your hands and feet. Do both exercises every other day. When combined with a proper diet, weight training, and cardiovascular fitness you will get that flat stomach look in no time along with those six pack abs.
