Think Strong,<br />

Not Flat<br />

flat abs is more than just for aesthetics or<br />

Instagram, but it is also for health <strong>and</strong> strength. If<br />

you’re into working out, don’t miss your abdominal<br />

exercises! Incorporate it into your workout routine<br />

to reap its rewards that we’re discussing in the next<br />

section.<br />

HEALTHY ABDOMINALS BENEFITS<br />

The core or abdominal muscles are your power<br />

centre. They’re a sacred space <strong>and</strong> a vitality source<br />

of your body. They’re also an important centre of<br />

consciousness <strong>and</strong> energy, according to ancient<br />

healing traditions. It is why thinking about <strong>and</strong><br />

working for strong abdominal muscles should start<br />

now. Learn more in the following for the seven<br />

benefits of healthy abdominals.<br />

BACK PAIN REDUCTION<br />

One of the primary benefits of having healthy abs<br />

is back pain reduction. The core anchors the middle<br />

<strong>and</strong> lower back, so it needs to be strong. Otherwise,<br />

your back muscle will work hard to support your<br />

middle back. Too much straining will lead to its<br />

weakening, <strong>and</strong> pain will be a common scenario.<br />

With strong ab muscles, you can improve the<br />

endurance of your back muscles, prevent its injury,<br />

<strong>and</strong> reduce its straining. If you’re suffering from back<br />

pain, you should incorporate ab exercises into your<br />

workout regimen to create a more balanced body.<br />

What to know: Healthy abdominal muscles can<br />

prevent the forward protrusion of your belly <strong>and</strong> the<br />

altering of your centre gravity.<br />

WEIGHT RESISTANCE<br />

Improve your ability to bear weight with healthy<br />

abdominal muscles. Engage in ab exercises that can<br />

provide you with more strength. As you progress,<br />

you can bear more weight because you’ll have a<br />

stronger torso to take on a heavy weight with your<br />

stable lifting base, which is your core.<br />
