Flatter Stomach, Stronger Core Against the Wall! Dr. Mandell

Building a stronger core doesn't need to involve grueling floor exercises.

In this innovative method, you'll learn to engage your core muscles effectively by performing exercises against a wall.

Many core exercises focus heavily on floor work, but standing exercises offer unique benefits.

When done correctly, they help improve posture and engage deeper core muscles.

Start by reaching up as high as you can.

  • Lean into your hands without arching your back.
  • Push forward until you feel your core squeezing and tightening.
  • Place your hand on your stomach to sense the firmness.

Maintain this position for up to a minute, allowing your core muscles to fully engage.

For lateral stabilization, raise one hand up and repeat the lean.

  • Ensure your back remains straight – avoid bending or arching.
  • Lean into the opposing hand to contract your core muscles further.

Hold this for another minute as your muscles grow accustomed to the pressure.

Repeat the previous step on the other side, focusing on maintaining perfect alignment.

  • Lean slightly into the supporting hand.
  • Keep your spine straight for optimal muscle engagement.

Carry out these steps daily until noticeable changes occur in your core strength.

Integrate these exercises into your daily routine to not only enhance your core but also improve your posture.

“Do that every day and your core will love you.”

Remember, consistency is key to transforming how your core looks and performs.

Strengthen wisely, and over time, enjoy the rewards of a steadfast core foundation.
