Matt ....
Or anyone
I convinced my self in the past as I have a bad back ,(and I really do I struggle with it most days),that I can't really exercise,
Well for the first ten mins last night I was in agony ! But then it eased and although hurt I was ok.
So now I want to do more exercise ......
I don't want to be strong like you guys in the other thread but I do want to more than ever lose the stomach !!!
What exercise is best for this ?
Thanks in advance
Start with fixing your back mate. Unless you have a ridiculous problem that requires complete rest then the way to do that is to stretch and slowly strengthen it.
The reason it started to feel easier last night after ten minutes is most likely because the muscles got warm so everything was just looser. At the end of your session you could've taken advantage of this by having a really good stretch whereas I'm going to hazard a guess you just went and sat down for a bit because you were knackered? If not then you probably got straight in your car and sat with warm muscles and poor posture all the way home.
If you throw yourself in to an abs routine then all you're going to do is make your back worse. All stomach muscles utilise the core and if you've got a weak flabby core then to do stomach exercises you have to engage your back which until your back is sorted will just make you worse.
It's not difficult to achieve what you're after but it takes time and patience. I'd be happy to meet up and sort something out for you. I think I've got the perfect plan but it's too much to write up on here and I need to give you a copy of a DVD as well so easier face to face. I need some work doing on my fence so when you're next available pop over and we'll sort a quote and your gut at the same time
I really appreciate your reply mate :-)
As I was in the army and done a lot of physical exercise I knew the importance of the warm down and stretching after so I didn't just sit down I cooled down properly !!
Sounds like a plan with the fence and gut in one go :-)
I'll get back to you with s day mate
Thanks again
