HAVYK Sliders - Core training with lots of fun!

Thought of posting some video clips of an awesome training tool I bought from HAVYK recently. I've been wanting to get a pair of these unique tools to incorporate in training for my clients. When I tried the HAVYK Sliders, I was overjoyed and loved these well-constructed training tool. Most of my clients love it, and I have to admit these pair of little sliders will rip your core muscles like never before. 

There are so many more effective safer methods to train your core muscles. It's not just about abs flexion doing sit ups and crunches, and for some clients, it may further aggravate the underlying muscle imbalances and back problems. Core muscles is not about the visible 6 pack abs you see with naked eyes, it's the entire 'belt-like' anterior, posterior and obliques chain. For most people, the focus on training the prime mover large muscle groups is overrated, and the stabilizers to injury prevented is well ignored. Thus, risk of injuries increase the longer you over developed the large muscles and left out the crucial stabilizer muscles, muscle imbalances in inevitable, especially non-functional isolated training.

Your brain and nervous system constantly controls and communicate with all your muscular systems. The neuromuscular systems is in fact part of your core muscular systems. Poor or dysfunctional brain and nervous system controls will result in weak core muscular system. You could be well-built as a MMA fighter with solid 6 pack abs, but if you are mentality or emotionally weak during that point of time (E.g, You just heard the news of your dad passed away), your core muscular system will be weakened and likely to lose the fight. 

Anyhow, I hereby present to you some of the fun training drills using HAVYK Sliders. Any of you interested in HAVYK products, you can check out their website below. I will try to post more videos of Sliders workout videos in near future. Finally, thanks to HAVYK for the shirts they gave to me as a gift. Kudos to your entire team, UFC is lucky to have you guys training their team. Keep up the awesome work!

  2. I still think TRX and swiss ball deliver the better core training especially mid section area. Gyms in Malaysia is generally fixed machines and cardio junks, stuff that get you injured if prolonged training.
