1) There is no such thing as spot reduction.
2) There is no abdominal work that will actually get rid of your gunt.
3) You probably don't actually have a gunt.
4) Getting the gut out of gunt is really about an alchemist blend of good strength
5) work, high intensity training and strategic nutrition.
With all of that out of the way, it is true that many women lose all awareness of their lower abdominals. Whether it be due to pregnancy, c-section or an energetic root chakra, kundalini type black hole of deadness, most women need help create neural pathways from their deep addominal/core muscles and lower addominal muscle fibres.
Last night in class I had the group (including Maggie) doing two of my favourite lower abdominal exercise and fool proof TVA activation exercises. I did not invent these. I saw one on a friends blog and the other is just common knowledge for a good deep core stabilization exercise.
The first one is called dead bug.
The last one is called whatever you want but it works every time to help people connect with their lower abdominal muscle fibres especially when coordinated with the breathe.
These pics are just teasers. I can't really teach you how to do proper core work in a blog post. If you really want proper instruction, you're going to have to get your butt into Urbanfitt and let me coach them to you properly.
