The answer is yes. You can (and should) strengthen the abdominal 'corset' with functional exercises that , instead of activating it in an isolated way (as it is done with the 'crunchs' of a lifetime, for example), involve the greatest number of possible muscle groups . In this way, in addition, we will be much more efficient when making movements as everyday as we bend down to pick up something from the ground, carry weight or simply walk.
That is the proposal that, once again, makes us the personal trainer Noe Todea. "The goal is not to mark a 'six pack' cover (something that, by the way, is only achieved with a very strict diet). What good is having a smooth abdomen if it does not meet its functionality and does not help us get a harmony in the movement ? ", he explains.
Noe Todea will teach us tomorrow Sunday, starting at 9 am, in 'Salud a day' (Telemadrid program produced by UEtv) how to train in this way is much simpler than it seems, showing us four very simple exercises (here goes an advance with two of them) that we can do anywhere.
As simple as these three we can do, three days a week, using elastic bands .
Exercises with elastic bands.
WARNING: it is essential to consult a professional about the convenience of starting a training program. Also listen to the calls of our body and stop before any symptoms of discomfort, dizziness or pain.
