5 Ways Faisal’s Ab Blaster Workout Boosts Your Health
Mindful’s fitness ambassador, Faisal Abdalla, says spending even a few minutes a week giving your midsection some TLC delivers a big payback for your health and well-being. Take a look.
1. Better Posture
Shore up the muscles along your spine, and you’ll be standing and sitting nice and tall. You’ll also be strengthening your bones and protecting your balance.
2. Improved Heart Health
When you take steps to whittle away the deepest layer of abdominal fat, you lower your risk for heart disease and other serious health woes.
3. An Easier Time With Daily Tasks
A strong, stable core makes everyday activities, like bending down to tie your shoes, racing to catch the bus, even sitting at your desk, a breeze.
4. Faster Weight Loss
Strong muscles help maximize your body’s ability to burn calories even when you’re watching funny cat videos.
5. Faster Weight Loss
The prescription for a sore back? Spend more time on core exercises. Strong abs stabilize your spine and help maintain your full range of motion.
