How to perform vacuum exercises

To comply with the following recommendations:

1. Take a comfortable position, you can perform the exercise, standing or sitting, the main thing is to have a stable surface (the most effective performance on all fours, but this pose refers to more complex types).
2. The back should be kept straight throughout the entire complex, and the gaze should be directed forward.
3. Take a maximum breath, exhale sharply, while simultaneously pulling in your stomach, for simplicity you can imagine that a person is trying to reach his spine with his belly button, while holding his internal organs in the middle, and shoving his stomach under his ribs.
4. After the stomach is retracted, it should be exhaled, but leave the stomach in the same position. You can not relax it. It is necessary to hold out in this position for 1-2 minutes.

Note! To get an excellent result when performing vacuum exercises, you must follow the correct technique.

Lying exercises

Vacuum for the abdomen from a prone position is considered one of the simple types that is perfect for beginners.

The execution technique is as follows:

• lie on a comfortable, stable surface, legs must be bent at the knees, arms extended along the body;
• take a maximum breath, after a sharp exhale, in a state of exhalation, draw the stomach into itself as much as possible;
• stay in the accepted position for at least 10 seconds, if necessary, take small breaths and exhalations;
• after a while, rest a bit, repeat the exercise 10 times.

Vacuum sitting on a chair

This method is considered the most difficult , because in a sitting position on the muscles that support the spinal column behind, there is an even greater load, they are stabilized, thereby preventing the emergence of a vacuum.

To perform this technique, only a chair without a back or a stool is suitable. To increase the difficulty, you can choose a fitball.

The execution technique is as follows:

• starting position – sitting, while the back should be flat, the chin is looking down, the hands should be on your knees, lower limbs are at right angles;
• when drawing in the abdomen, it is necessary to take a slow breath through the nose, you need to inhale the maximum air into the lungs;
• if there is a feeling that it is no longer possible to retract the abdomen, finish retracting, stay in this position for about 1 minute;
• after, with sharp jerks to push the air out of the lungs, try to pull the stomach even harder; stay in this position for 15-20 seconds.

It’s important to know! If you experience pain in the abdominal cavity, you must immediately stop the exercise.

This can lead to serious consequences.

Vacuum on all fours – technology

Vacuum exercises for the abdomen from a position on all fours are complicated by the fact that here it is necessary not only to strain the transverse muscle, but also to overcome the force of gravity, which pulls the stomach down. Therefore, this technique requires much more effort than from a prone position , while you can achieve better results.

The implementation of the technique is as follows:

• to take a pose on all fours, hands should not be bent at the elbows, but should be slightly wider than the shoulders, the neck should not be strained, the head should be lowered down;
• inhale slowly enough, then also exhale the air masses from the lungs;
• to draw the stomach in as much as possible, it is necessary that
  he seeks to reach the spine, while the back should be round;
• try not to breathe for 15-20 seconds, then inhale the air, relax the muscles.

For one workout you need to do 3-5 repetitions of the exercise. When performed regularly, bring the breath holding time to 1 min.

How to perform a vacuum while standing

The exercise is performed using the support, you can do it without it, but this already applies to a more complex form. When doing the back should be straight , legs slightly bent and set shoulder width apart, hands should be placed on the hips or knees.

In this position, you should perform the following exercises:

• take a maximum breath, let a large amount of air into the lungs;
• make a slow exhalation, while the navel should adhere to the spine;
• stop in the adopted position for 15-20 seconds, after which sharply push the air out of the lungs, it is better to do it with jerks, because such vacuum exercises for the abdomen involve drawing the abdomen to the maximum possible;
• linger in this position for another 5-10 seconds, and then relax the muscles.
