The 30% rule
To find the right tension to tighten your tummy muscles, pull your tummy button in towards your spine (imagine you’re wearing a 10-notch belt done up to the tightest hole). Breathing normally, release to the third notch. This ‘30% tension’ is the ideal level to pull your tummy muscles in to.
