No-risk Abs deals with a new type of Abs, designed with respect for the body’s anatomical structure, questio- ning commonly accepted ideas regarding these notorious muscles, about which we really know very little.

“Abs” are those exercises you do in fitness centers and health clubs most of the time to be fit, and maintain a flat stomach. But it is important to know that the strength alone of the abdominal muscles is not enough to keep a stomach flat and that constantly working to make these muscles stronger is not without risk: out of control or poorly executed, abs can even damage the perineum, the stomach walls and the intervertebral discs. Nevertheless, it is true that if the muscles here lack strength, working on abs would be useful.Thanks to the three reading levels, No-risk Abs spells out the precau- tions to observe when doing the most common exercises and enables you to find the best possible practice to achieve the goals you set.

The book is aimed at all those who do abs in yoga, dance, aqua gym, circus, singing, martial arts, but also, physical therapists and P.E. teachers.
