Relationships aren't official unless you post a picture together on Instagram. Or, at least, that seems to be the rule these days. And on Sunday, Simone Biles went "Instagram official" with her boyfriend, Houston Texans safety Jonathan Owens.

The 23-year-old world-champion gymnast shared two photos of herself with Owens along with the caption, "It's just us."

🤫🔑 3 Secrets typically not mentioned in creating & maintaining a strong/sexy core. It’s worth the read. 🤞🏽 • 1. Activating your Transverse Abdominis (TVA) is ESSENTIAL! Your TVA is a horizontal muscle structure, underlying the vertical muscle, rectus abdominis (6-pack). Activate your TVA by pulling your belly-button back towards your spine. An easy way to do this is to elevate your feet on something (wall, box, etc.) while lying on your back & pushing your lower back to the floor. This activation is THE MOST essential for a strong, sexy core. When someone says to “brace,” or “activate” your core through a movement, this is the 1st movement to be engaged & maintained. It protects your spine & strengthens the movement. 💯 • 2. Static/Eccentric exercises. Planks, L-holds, resisted flexion/extension. These force the muscles to increase their endurance, maintain muscle contraction or length, & build muscular strength. People typically shy away from these types of exercises, because they do not feel a pump or see an immediate difference. However, by avoiding core exercises (the most important) they lose out on core strength & additional strength to their limbs. A tight/strong core creates strength throughout the rest of the body. 💪🏽 • 3. HIIT makes the body use an incredible amount of energy & oxygen in a short period of time, & makes the body continue to burn calories for longer periods post-workout. The high caloric burn & after-burn help your lose weight & shed fat to create a toned/strong/sexy core, so long as you do not eat poorly after your exercise. Try 1st Phorm’s Post-Workout Stack, or if you don’t have that, a good replacement would be a banana & protein isolate shake. Replenish energy, & rebuild muscle. The high oxygen consumption is important too, because it creates that “shred,” through cellular activity & oxygen turnover. Think of something being shrink wrapped. 😉 • Those are my three big secrets. Are you willing to make some changes? Use these secrets next time you decide it’s time to get the abs you’ve always wanted. ✌🏽 • #FitnessTips #BodyGoals #Motivation #IAm1stPhorm #1stPhormAthleteSearch #WeDoTheWork
