Ab-solutely



Every single workout I plan involves at least one abdominal exercise.  Here are five reasons why:

• Strong abdominals help prevent lower back pain.  When our abs aren’t doing their job, the lower back has to take up the slack.

• Abdominal work improves posture.  Good posture makes us look and feel better.

• Strong abs help us balance.  Balance keeps us from falls.  Falls are at best embarrassing and at worst dangerous, so the fewer falls the better!

• Abdominal control improves our breathing.  Do I need to explain why breathing is important?

• Lovely abdominals make us look good, which may be petty, but hey, we get all those other good things, too.
