A simple little abdominal bracing exercise

I was reading several articles today addressing abdominal bracing exercises.

As I was doing a little recovery walk tonight, I would brace my abs and hold them for five seconds while walking. I did this about every ten seconds.

I found this to be more challenging than I anticipated! It did not knock me over, but it made the little walk a little more interesting and became pretty fatiguing after a short time.

Next time you are out for a stroll, try this little technique for a quick little ab workout. I expect it will add a little challenge to your walk!
