Stomach vacuuming has nothing to do with your Dyson and seriously, don t try that at home. Instead, it s actually a breathing exercise that activates and strengthens your transverse abdominis, aka your deepest abdominal muscle, by contracting it, explains Rich Sturla, owner and director of personal training at Results Health & Performance.
If you do it right, you ll work those deep, important muscles that are responsible for stabilizing your spine. That means your back might hurt less and your posture might get better, which will also make you feel SO much better.
What is stomach vacuuming?
FWIW, stomach vacuuming is also called the abdominal drawing-in maneuver or abdominal hollowing, and it s really not new at all.
