He didn’t even show us “how to engage them” 🙄

[@tamayao]

Lol

[@Areebisthenics]

Ikr I’ve been stuck in this position for 3 months

[@noorahmadlondon]

I know right 😢 he had a top on

[@enderzebak2863]

@@Areebisthenics take a deep breadth and fill your stomach, now hold that and flex your abs

[@BilalOz2012]

He told you what muscles to tighten lol

[@reetodd9103]

Saying "like you're about to get punched" is a perfect way to phrase it, for so long I would try to push/pull my stomach or hold my breath but this really cleared it up

[@AnaClaraSegal]

when you said "imagine you're gonna get punched" I understood everything

[@lourdesrodriguesvas4008]

My sweet Boy! How I love to hear you putting some sense in my head. Thank you!

[@Jordan90438]

Thank you!

[@imariarojas]

I’m embracing as if i were gonna get punched in the stomach BUT it doesn’t feel like i’m doing it right. Maybe more practice?

[@johankaruyan5536]

When most people poop and they have constipation and they try to force it out sometimes they make their abs hard

[@Nia-pw6rq]

Thank you 😄 I just love your videos! Simple explanations easy to understand

[@karimashaker827]

Thank you so much Justin really you are helping people to be in the right way to be fit ... This video is so important for participants.

[@mexagodtvg8937]

Ok but like how do you “tighten up and brace” your entire core?😐

[@KingBaller06gaming]

It's like when you flex your arms but specifically your abdominals.

[@pds1647]

All I do is hold my breath. How does it work 😢

[@IamthatP]

I get it but I still don't know how to, especially if I'm lying down. Get you do a how to engage my core when doing laying down ab exercises, that would be helpful.

[@roun3]

The first video I understand, so thank you 🙏

[@benmalo1933]

Thank you very helpful with the tip of pretend like someone is gonna punch you in the stomach that worked perfectly

[@islamstics347]

bro forgot the neck day

[@mechacafe735]

gonna try doing this while sitting down, I can do the lats too and trying to see If i can feel the activation of the serratus. Activating the glutes while sitting down feels weird lol I can't do it without feeling my hamstrings lift up my thighs lol

[@katfrankie6484]

Thank u I needed this❤

[@thabreaka]

standing no problem. I have to focus so hard to do it while sitting because I have a pelvic tilt and a slouch since I work on a computer chair eight hours a day.

[@GKOWO]

After this video i was able to do the L sit and the elbow stand

[@xbigxbirdxx5846]

Thank you for this.
I am able to engage all my muscles except my “core” muscles considering I don’t work on them
I just started working on abs 2 days ago and had trouble feeling the activation of the muscles until you said “as if someone is about to punch you” that immediately made me activate my abs and it’s literally so easy now.
Thank you great video

[@potrelviewer9536]

Even if I try to activate my abs, my lungs just stop by themselves. Is it a possible sign of cerebellum malfunction? If yes, then that's a dire warning....

[@nicolek5747]

I used to do that, too. It takes practice.

[@daswanimgd]

Thanks...

[@freshmanna4678]

Please explain this without using all those terms for the various muscles. They mean nothing to me

[@kabs255]

imagine someone trying to punch you in your stomach

[@ThaDoggo]

Just learn it then

[@jennie3186]

I'm engaging my core while writing this comment😊

[@Bruhhh0000]

Still no help smh

[@chaingangbiscuit]

Every Video on this topic misses the mark

[@johankaruyan5536]

But I can engage my core when slouching tho ?

[@imadoge5036]

Yes, it's just not as good

[@imadoge5036]

Or useful
