Anyone ever performed vacuums.

Keep this "G"Rated.

Vacuum - Perform vacuum holds by exhaling and simultaneously sucking in your midsection; hold midsection in for up to one minute while continuing to breathe.

I have seen in a few books where people do this. Any truth or benefit to it.

Please keep this positive, thanks for the information.

It's easy and I believe they help. It's not going to get rid of a fat belly but I did see a difference when I did them.

Trains the transverse abdominals. I prefer planks for time or an ab wheel or even squats.

wondering the same thing, guy in the gym told me to suck in for 25 to 30 seconds and then do situps. It seems to be working, if its not in my mind...lol
