Stomach Vacuums /fit/?
Do these actually work or are they just a meme?
Are they used in meditation sometimes?

There's no strong evidence that they don't work. They fall in the realm of broscience. It's a neat party trick at least.

yes, it works to hide your ugly ab muscles like this picrel. he wouldn't have made this far if it wasn't for the vacuum.

they work ridiculously well at conditioning your stomach and making your waist smaller, but if you aren't also doing progressive ab workouts (meaning with weights, not meme shit) then they can only do so much

Roidgutted bodybuilders like Nick Walker train them in the hopes that it will make their waist thinner or give them better "waist control" while they're on stage, even if they don't actually attempt to pull vacuums there. Obviously if it works it's only marginal since they all still look pregnant between poses. It's like pullovers to expand your ribcage, wide grip pulldowns to make your lats wider or calf raises. If you're competitive you have to do them just in case. For normal people, if you enjoy them do them, if you don't don't.
