Those Iconic Abs
Sporting good abs is probably the quintessential pretty pose, but far beyond aesthetics, having a well developed abs optimize load-transfer because nearly every movement starts or passes through the abs - it's a load-bearing structure.
The Class
This particular abs class by Teacher Sans is more like a HIIT - high-intensity interval training focused on the abs. We did about 10 repetitions of one abs workout followed by 5 other routines without rest. After this set, we rested of a few minutes and repeated the same set. The class lasted nearly an hour. The trick was to remain engaged at all times and not stop until after the set. Needless to say, it was not easy specially if the abs were burning already - but that's when the transformation happens.
Ending Thoughts
It felt great after the class knowing I've done my due-workout on my abs. Yes, it looks good to have one, but it's also very functional to have a strong core. A strong core protects my lower back. People who suffer from lower back problems usually have a weak core. Why? Because a weak core transfers the load to the lower back. But the lower back was never designed to carry such load. So there is a resultant injury.
Thank you again, Teacher San for another great workout!
