The stomach, don’t we just wish we could have a lovely flat stomach and not have to worry about any ‘over hang’? Getting a stomach that we are proud to show off isn’t easy. Don’t forget to lose the fat from your your stomach from overall working out, before going to task on those abdominals. Once you have done this then here are some exercises to help you get the look you want.
The great thing about these exercises is that you can do them anywhere so no excuses about not having the time to do them!
Number 1. Reverse Ab Crunch
1. Whilst lying on the ground put your legs straight and your hands underneath your bottom.
2. PUll in your abdominal muscles as tight as you can with your head and lower back flush on the ground.
3. Pull your legs up and back to a 90° angle from the ground. Be careful not to lock out your knees and remember to keep your abdominals tight.
4. Keep your lower back flat on the ground at all times
5. Lower your legs, stop just before your feet touch the ground and reverse the motion back up.
Number 2. Crunches
1. Lay on the ground with your legs bent and your feet flat. Remember not to pull from your arms, keep your focus on your abdominal muscles. This exercise is an abdominal crunch not a sit up.
2. Again keep those abdominals tight, neck straight, chest up.
3. From the sternum, crunch your weight up and forward.
4. Your lower back should remain flat on the ground at all times.
5. Lower your weight maintaining control, stop just before your shoulders touch the ground and reverse the motion back up.
Number 3. The plank
Combining crunches with the plank will give you the flat stomach you are looking for.
1. Lie flat on your stomach
2. Placing your hands at either side of your chest (as if ready to perform a press up), tuck your elbows into your sides.
3. Keeping your back perfectly flat, push yourself up onto your knees – so that your upper body is off the floor, with your hands and knees acting as support.
4. Keeping your back flat, pull in your tummy button as high as possible – as if to suck it in close to the spine.
5. Making sure you breathe correctly hold this position for 10 – 60 seconds.
6. Rest while lying flat and repeat twice.
By doing these few simple exercises you will see the results you want!!!
