I’ve been doing it standing up for a while and it’s very uncomfortable for me. Now it’s much better doing it laying down. thanks a lot for sharing and demonstrating !!❤
Ms. Ivana - Thank you for this video. I do see the benefit but sometimes I get neck and shoulder pain. Am I doing something wrong, is there a way of doing this exercise without hurting my neck or shoulder?
I did this exercise for 4 mins. I can feel the burn in my abdomen so it must be working my muscles, but its hurting my lower back (I have bulging disks and spinal stenosis in my L4 & L5) Is it safe to do long term? Also made me feel a little dizzy....
I have read & watched conflicting info about doing the vacuum as far as breathing goes. I know you said it's ok to hold your breath (which is a good thing bc otherwise I just can't seem to stay true to form trying to breathe) I think I'm performing these correctly but often wonder. I feel that slight cramping behind and maybe slightly below my belly button... Does it sound to you like I'm hitting TVA? plz & thank you
Okay so this won't make you lose weight, but kind of manage the amount of food your stomach holds so you get full quicker, right? Or how does this help?
The exercise strengthens the TVA muscle, that’s all. Nothing to do with weight loss. It doesn’t change anything to do with the amount of food your stomach holds.
Having a hysterectomy shouldn't affect your ability to do most exercises, although this isn't one that I would necessarily recommend. It's best to speak to your doctor or a physio who knows your situation.
I tried this exercise a few years ago but don’t think I was doing it right. I had a tummy tuck 3 weeks ago and been told my muscles are good but my skin tone is bad (I look boxy :(.. ) will this help my skin tone? Thanks
A calorie deficit will help you lose stomach fat. Abs exercises don't do that, but by training you to pull in your muscles, you may notice that your waist feels tighter.
When we are inhale breathing and then hold breath and thight the stomach muscles and after then exhale breathing m i right or wrong? please guide me Mam please video on outside thigh loss weight means outside thigh slime... Mam please guide me all exercises when to do and when not to do not only this exercise.. means my question is this when we can do exercise and asana and pranayam and when we can't .. After eating and before eating whenever it comfortable
You can hold your breath for the whole time that you're holding the stomach muscles in. You can't really target fat loss in particular areas. You'll need to lose fat overall (primarily through diet). Exercise can be done any time your stomach is not too full. Whenever is comfortable for you.

Glad this variation was useful for you! 😊
Ivana you are best Teacher. I am able to do Vacuums 4 Sets up to 1:00 to 1;10 .Using trx Ropes . It is fun to do them.
To be honest, I don't have the stomach vacuum yet. So what happens after when you hold your stomach down to your spine for 20 to 30 seconds?
Simple and easy to understand, thank you!

Do you have any recommendations for women who have had hysterectomies? It's hard for me to tell if I'm doing the contraction correctly.

No, it won't help your skin tone.
Thanks

Great vid! Very helpful.
Thanks! 😊
thank you so much ❤️
You're welcome 😊
Does this help loose belly fat? please reply!
Nope! You need to expend more calories than you take in...generally nutrition is the easiest way to do that.
@@IvanaChapman Ok thank you!
I do this stomuch vaccuim i notice my tummy bloated getting small na. Its helpul for me.
What is the best position of stomach vacuum for best results
It doesn't matter. Whatever allows you to hold the TVA contraction best.
Will this help with diastasis recti?
TVA exercises can help protect the area from further injury. Try this video here: th-cam.com/video/GcQ9r_8HfVo/w-d-xo.html
Hi Miss Ivana, does this exercise helps you to narrow your stomach
Not really. The wide of your stomach area is primarily genetics.
@@IvanaChapman okay thank you for rensponding have blessed day😙
Thank you 😊
Does this exercise help you lose weight?
No
@@IvanaChapman What is the point of doing this?
