In this podcast episode, Brad Williams from Over 40 Fitness Hacks shares valuable insights on incorporating transverse abdominal exercises into your daily workout routine. Brad emphasizes the importance of being mindful during workouts and maximizing their effectiveness by increasing time under tension. He introduces the concept of working on the transverse abdominals, which are often overlooked but play a crucial role in core stability and appearance.

Brad explains that the transverse abdominals are a thin layer of muscle responsible for holding organs in place and providing a flatter appearance. He describes various exercises to target these muscles, including stomach vacuums, planks, active hollows, reverse planks, leg raises, and bird dog crunches, all of which require a focus on the stomach vacuum technique.

He encourages listeners to slow down their exercises and maintain mindfulness by engaging the transverse abdominals during every movement, even during common exercises like bench presses or deltoid flies. Brad highlights that this approach not only enhances muscle engagement but also burns more calories and aids in fat loss.

Ultimately, Brad's message centers on the idea that by working on these often-neglected muscles and incorporating mindfulness into your workouts, you can achieve better results, improve core stability, and enhance your overall fitness journey.
