    What's the difference between hollowing and bracing? Hollowing has become popular throughout the industry. It's also known as "drawing in", it's meant to activate your Transverse Abdominis and stabilise your spine. As you'll find this is not quite true and there's a much more effective way of stabilising your spine. Don't believe me listen to Dr McGill talk about it.

    This is a great video I really appreciate you sharing.
    I do have a question.
    They talked about golfers and how they pulse, it makes sense, but what about a contact sport like hockey? When they skate around do they pulse constantly when they make contact with another player or the puck ?
    Thanks !

      The simple answer is yes. However the degrees to which they pulse will be different. If they are going into contact with another player it will be more likely a full brace to create stiffness so they don't buckle. In the case of making contact with the puck it will be more like the golfing example explained in the video and a much lighter contraction.

      In this example, which is a better exercise for hockey players? Bracing or drawing in?

    If I have a minor S5-L1 disc bulge, is it safe for me to do abdominal hallowing for core exercises? 🙏🏻

    I still don't know which is better.

      Do you use hollowing or bracing? Have you heard one is better than another?

      Based on this discussion, I feel that his description of abdominal hollowing is not how I’ve come to understand it. I do agree that many people take a very simplistic approach to it and just say, “pull in your navel” as though that’s all there is too it. It’s similar to people who claim that it’s all about “strengthen your core” by doing sit-ups. Christopher Norris has a very interesting book called Back Stability in which he goes into quite a bit of detail about hollowing.

    what is the defenition of a pulse?

      It's hard to explain, I think I'll need to do a video about it. Saying that, I'll give it a go. A pulse is basically a relaxed core tensing for a split second and relaxing again. In sporting terms that means, in golf for example, at the top of a back swing as the swing begins there's a quick contraction, as the club swings through the air the core relaxes and as the club strike the ball it contracts again. This mechanism is happening through all sports.

    That’s so funny, I’m going to swing a club at 100 mph wait a minute let me pulse 7.5 %. .. ok grandma time to get out of chair just brace 5% hahaha do you actually hear what your say how about for herniated disk I must have to brace 226% well if you don’t know what I’m saying just buy my books OMG your explanation are killing my back...

      You're clearly ignorant. It's not rocket science...you don't use a 100% of your gripping strength/muscles when picking up a glass of water, do you? It's the same idea but with abdominal muscles.

    • @edwardgale4491

      The tip of your club may be doing 100 mph, but your hips and spine are not. The pertinent abdominal muscles have ample time to "relax" into stiffness, and, after the exertion, become flaccid again, if you know what I mean.
