PLUS: Free report uncovers how to burn more belly fat in 12 minutes than an entire hour of low intensity cardio:
In today’s short, fat loss video, I’m going to talk about an exercise that you can use, literally, while you’re driving your car. That over time can make your waistline thinner from front to back. And this works a rarely talked about abdominal muscle called the transverse abdominis.
So most people talk about stomach definition or training abs. They focus on upper abs, lower abs, and the obliques which are on the side. But there’s this hidden muscle called the transverse abdominis that actually makes your stomach look flatter if you work it consistently over time.
Now keep in mind you can’t narrow the width of your hips this way. So you can’t make it any narrower this way. That’s genetic. Your bones are that width. However, you can make your waistline look thinner from front to back this way.
And the way that you perform is ab backing, you can do it standing like this, that’s a little more advanced. But the best way to do it, if you’re first starting out– and once you do it this way, you can go ahead and start practicing it when you drive, if you’re walking at an incline, or riding a bike, or doing cardio, you can do it while you’re doing that to help you over time make your waistline look thinner. So the best way is to lie on your back with your feet flat on the floor so your knees will be bent.
You’re going to exhale and release all the air out of your lungs until nothing is left. And then, you’re going to do this without breathing in. As soon as all the air is pushed out of your lungs, you’ll then hold your breath and then you’ll go ahead and suck your stomach in as hard as you can. It’s almost like you’re forcing your belly button to touch your spine. And then you’re going to hold that for 10 seconds.
You’re going to release it, breathe out again and repeat that process 5 to 10 times. Now over time, you can increase that 10 second hold to 15 seconds, all the way up to 30 seconds over time. And then as you get the hang of this, like I said, you can do it during your other daily activities. It’s not going to magically flatten your belly, but over time, if you get your body fat low enough, you’ll be able to see that this exercise will make your waistline look thinner.

This is similar to “pencil accordion” breathing which I learned from a professional dancer, and pass on to all my subjects. Great reminder
Could’ve got to the point much faster
Best stomach vacuum instructions ever
How am I going to lye on my back if I'm driving? This video says while driving 🫤
This is interesting. It was literally two weeks ago. I was driving and I was trying to figure out. What can I do to you know possibly help this situation I’m in where I have a stomach and I want to do something. I’m just driving every day so I did the technique you’re talking about here and you actually feel something you know and I do it in between deliveries cause I deliver all day so after I’m done delivering I’ll do it all the way to my next delivery and then I’ll do it all the way to my next delivery you really feel the difference
This does work. My physical therapist had me do this after having a baby to tighten those tiny lower muscles which also helped not pee when sneezing or jumping. It does take time to build the strength in those muscles but all good things take time not quick fix unless you do surgery or diet for a brief period of time. My Personal experience not a professional.
I just got frustrated listening to a whole story for all most an hour not getting to the "secret thing" you refered to i even regret going to that link, just wasted my time 40 minutes in still haven't heard whats the secret.
just a guy talking. thumbs down.
Ran across this while searching for better ways to spend my commutes between LA to Phoenix. Then saw the channel name and instantly had to subscribe! Thanks for the video Gramps! 💕
How does this coincide with something like a rib flare?
So you know I'm mad right now because I'm like this guy I don't know what he talking about that won't work but if it worked as a tractor trailer driver that would be like that would be fire so I do go to the gym four days a week so I started this and I'm mad as hell this s*** actually works I'm seeing such great results and this summer even though I'm a smoker I'll be able to hold my breath longer cuz I went from 15 seconds and now I'm up to 30 seconds but this an intermittent fasting oh my God yeah I'm mad but I'm thankful thankful that it's shows some type of result
Do you guys have a website?
Very vague terminologies were used which made your video suspect…"over time", "secret", "afterburn". Coach Greg Doucette uses scientific research which disprove everything you just told us
What???
How much time is "over time"?
Doesn’t show it. Can’t be on my back while driving

Seen the ab vacuum in bodybuilder.com, but didn't check out the video, but it sounds like what you described, and from what I've seen for some core exercises, it seems some suggest it. I already started doing this before with planks, then started doing it more when I did other core exercises. Because of my current economic and housing state, I was looking up what I could do in a car, read a bit on one article, watch another video, seen yours. So, no one mentioned it on all the health classes, physical education, etc., but, it seems you can workout even in your car, so now I know. Thanks for the information, was working that vacuum while watching, and I now have something in mind to help stay awake while driving for duty.
What is your diet I want to flatten my stomach and I just started flat bed otr
