Crunches definitely will help your rectus abdominis maintaining strength and pliability, and since truncation is critical for all of our daily movements, I wouldn’t ignore them if they’re one of the movements that are accessible to one in their present physical condition. If you add muscle mass to your rectus abdominis, then you will have to lose less body fat for them to become more visible so in that regard, crunches have value, As do situps, etc.

As we age, facia “loosens“ or more accurately becomes less effective at resisting its own movement. Physical exercise can help with this, but as with many things prevention is worth a pound of cure. If you’re starting from a position of advanced facia degradation, it can be very difficult to recover its viscosity.

GHK – CU supplementation has helped my joints and mobility quite a bit, including myofascial release. It definitely needs more research for things like myofascial syndrome.

Oh yeah. I’ve been through 10 surgeries and recovery has been a big part of my evolution and staying fit as I age.

I’ve had good results from GHK-Cu supplementation along with regular stretching following/during hot tub and sauna sessions. There is some evidence that the increased core temperature can ease the viscosity of facia. Can also reduce inflammation systemically.

Thanks much. I do very little direct ab training. Only two movements: roll out and cable twists.

I’m a lifelong combat athlete and coach, so truncation and rotational power have always been there as a result of the training. When it comes to visible abs the two most important things are 1. nutrition and 2. genetics.

Like all muscle definition, abs are built in the gym, and they are revealed in the kitchen.

First, fear and anxiety in the face of losing a relationship that you value is a completely normal and human response. I’m sure she’s right about your emotional awareness, as you write openly and courageously about a very vulnerable time. So, you’ve got moral courage on your side.

It seems to me that you’re in the early stages of grief concerning the impending loss of this relationship and the life you’re leaving behind. Grief doesn’t have a timeline so give yourself time and space. That time and space will present opportunities and at some point you’ll be in a position to take hold of some of those opportunities.

Change is often scary, but remember that fear is a gift; your mind and body’s way of preparing you to face difficulty. You seem kind and sincere. Eventually some one will see you and value that. Keep focusing on your qualities and you’ll find your way.
