FADS ARE FOR THE BIRDS!
This book is short, blunt, and to the point. Your not going to be lulled to sleep with Wikipedia's rendition of sweating to the oldies narrated by someone who has never actually done what they are telling you to do.
Abdominal distention vs visceral fat
Yes there is a difference between the two. Most people don't even know the causes of a Dunlap belly. This book will easily explain some of them in the most simplest of terms.
Yes I actually utilize these and many other exercises myself. Not all abdominal exercises are created equal. This does not mean that muscle building abdominal exercises are bad though. But many people are doing the wrong exercises for their specific abdominal needs. Are you trying to make your waist line bigger or smaller?
Building abdominal muscle is easy. Seeing it is not.
You can do every abdominal exercise known to man until the cows come home and if your eating rituals are not in check you will never see those speed bumps that you have got hiding underneath all of that blubber.
Here are some excerpts from the book:
Exercise 5: I call these Superman's. These are to be done on a roman chair. These are to be done in the same fashion as a static hold. I absolutely love static holds. In my book How To Put 1 Inch On Your Arms Without Putting 2 Inches On Your Waist Line I have a section in it dedicated to static holds.
Basically you get into the proper position which is at the top of your movement of a back extension or hyper extension on a roman chair.
The body will be perfectly flat with your face looking down to the floor. Place your arms out directly over your head and hold that Superman pose. Keep the abs in tight and try to focus on squeezing the butt. This will help you keep the core tight. Keep the head down facing the floor, not up toward the ceiling or chin tucked down near the clavicle.
These can also be done with a weighted vest, wrist weights, and resistance bands to make them more difficult. Remember that these are a static hold not a hyper extension exercise. Get into the proper position and then hold this pose and relax your mind and focus on breathing properly and keeping the belly button in. Static holds are all about mind over matter in my opinion.
Exercise 7: And I saved the best for last. This little known exercise is the one that everyone should be doing if they only had to choose one abdominal exercise to be utilizing.
The vacuum exercise is not going to give you six pack abs. But this is the only exercise that will trim the waistline and help to train a person to keep their gut from staying relaxed and causing abdominal extension.
People with organ distention, abdominal distension, and just a regular pot belly will benefit greatly from doing this simple exercise on a daily basis.
This simple exercise can also help a person who suffers from back aches due to bad posture.
There are a few different ways that you can do this exercise. I like to do this exercise from different positions. You can do them on all fours, standing upright, or standing but leaning bent over slightly with the hands using something...
I invite you all to join me on yet another conversation on the topic of general health and overall well being. Don't be scared, I wont bite! See you in a bit...
