the world of abdominal and core training today seems
to change as fast as the latest clothing styles.
Anytime the topic of
discussion in my blogs, articles or newsletters has

exercise. You do exactly what the articles say -

Correcting Bad Posture With
Abdominal Training David: Thank you for your Q & A column – I always look forward to your next installment. I have a question about posture and your abs! I have a very swayed back, and that seems to affect the shape of my abs. My brother is in very good shape and he has the same problem, though not as noticeable as me. Do you have any suggestions on how to correct this, keeping in mind that I play hockey once a week year-round and work as a heavy truck mechanic?

Seated Hanging Leg Raises - A new approach to an old
favorite.
The hanging leg raise is an
excellent abdominal exercise. This variation is not only
easier on your lower back but helps to remove the hip
flexors from the movement, all the while increasing the
contraction on the abs.
This exercise targets the abdominal muscles with an
extremely intense contraction. The range of motion of the
exercise is short but the tension on the abs is excellent.

They say it can do in 10 minutes what you would get from an hour of weight training. It was developed years ago from technology used by the Russian astronauts to stop muscle wastage when they were in space. Have you heard of this and do you think it could do what it claims to do? Not that I can afford to buy one, but I might try a class if there is ever one this offered this way
