Hi My friend!
Think you cant get a good abs workout in 5 minutes? Then you havent met me yet đ I just published a “5 minute abs workout” on my Youtube channel that is full of the most effective exercises for a stronger core. Doing this quick routine on a CONSISTENT basis will help you maintain active abs and all the health benefits that come with it.
What are the benefits of strong abs? Many of us equate core strength with a flat belly or six-pack abs. And while those may be motivating goals, there are so many more benefits that come from improving core strength than how your midsection looks, including improved posture, better balance, reduced back pain and easier breathing.
Because many of your bodyâs movements originate from your center, working toward improving its strength will enhance your posture, spinal alignment, stability and more. Researchers continue to study the various ways core strength improves health and wellbeing. Here are a few of the proven benefits of having strong ab muscles :
5 Minute Abs Workout Benefits:
- Alleviates Back Pain: Research shows that people with weak core muscles have an increased risk of back ache and injury, since they lack adequate spine support. The core-strengthening exercises in this 5 minute abs workout routine, can help reduce discomfort, improve mobility and improve support for the spine in people with both acute and chronic pain.
- Improves Posture: The core-strengthening exercises in this 5 minute abs workout use all of the muscles of the torso from top to bottom and front to back, helping you stand tall with your limbs in alignment. By improving posture you decrease your risk of disc herniation and vertebrae degeneration. Another benefit to better posture? Better breathing. That same balance that helps you stand up straight also opens your airway, making inhalations and exhalations easier.
- Better Athletic Performance: Youâd be hard-pressed to find a sport that doesnât rely on core strength for performance. Your core is the link between your upper and lower body, it is what allows a golfer to swing the club to strike his ball, or a tennis player to serve and optimize her racquet speed. Itâs critical to sports performance.
- Improved Balance: Studies have shown that dynamic balance improves as core strength increases.
- Safer Everyday Movement: Daily tasksâsuch as maintaining balance on an icy sidewalk, carrying groceries, hoisting children and walking up a steep flight of stairsâare easier and less likely to result in an injury when your abs are strong. Not only do you have better control of your muscles, but you can more easily find your center if youâre caught off-balance. In addition, being able to rely on a strong core will make it less likely that youâll overtax other muscles.
The best part is, it doesnt take a lot of time to maintain core fitness. In just 5 minutes, I’ll teach you the best routine to do on a weekly basis to keep your ab fitness (and all of its amazing benefits).
