One Exercise For A Smaller Waist

If you’re already doing planks as part of your abs-strengthening routine, you’re going to love this variation… 

The hollow point plank will make you look like a human banana when you perform it, but the results make it all worth it. 

(video below)

Planks train not only our internal girdle, or TVA, but also the musculature that sits above it, namely the six pack (rectus abdominis), obliques, and serratus. 

👍 Adding a vacuum and isometric crunch only improves the efficacy of this exercise.

Here are the steps to performing the hollow point plank:

• Get your body into plank position
• Make sure your upper arms are under directly shoulders for support
• Hips should be in line with legs and shoulders at the starting point
• Slowly pull your belly button to your backbone
• As you perform a vacuum, think about trying to pull your ribs to your hip bones (crunch)
• Breathe and hold for as long as you can

Doing 2-4 AMRAP sets 1-2 times per week can help with decreasing waist circumference, improving core strength, and improving stomach control.

Give this a try and see how it help you get a smaller waist.
