Meanwhile, the popularity of fitness apps is also skyrocketing. Public Health England’s ‘Couch to 5k’ app was downloaded almost 1 million times in his three months, and an average of 2 million people signed up to use his Strava for the first time. 

But with so many platforms and videos to choose from to fix your fitness, it can be overwhelming and difficult to know where to invest your precious time. And it gets even more confusing when you have a bloated stomach. You may become constipated or have intestinal problems. 

“Gut selection” is important here. I tried a lot of things like scrolling through videos and doing boring things. Here I will share the best exercises for abs that I have found, in the hope that they will help your abs. 

But how does exercise help your gut health?
