I teach a core strength class and see so many people with limited core strength, even those who work with a trainer. Six pack abs don't cut it! You need the inner muscle strength for the core to engage.
As a personal trainer I focus on core strength as well as agility, flexibility and overall fitness. Clients who suffered with back issues become symptom free as that core becomes stronger and more flexible. Having worked with professional power lifters and body builders I've seen way too many back injuries due to weak core muscles. Being ripped does not necessarily mean strength!! Bodilates kicks butt! Even those belonging to athletes!
And remember to add protein to your diet! Muscles need fuel....the more muscle you build, the more fat your burn! Chicken, fish and bean are healthy sources of protein.
what about drinking can it help?
ReplyDeletestraight booze and water.
Straight booze and water doesn't cut it!!!!
ReplyDeleteA lot of empty calories, but if it's only that one drink that's okay. Never deprive yourself, but limit the alcohol. Instead of the Scotch, try a glass of red wine! A healthier choice.
