We all scroll through social media looking at people flaunting such a well sculpted body and amazing looking abs. So let’s get off our couch , put the ice cream tub aside and work for it. For as difficult it might seem, it’s actually pretty simple to achieve it. Yes you heard me right, all you need to do is be consistent. Follow these simple exercises and you will achieve your abs dream within a week!
1) crunches:
The crunch is one of the most popular abdominal exercises. It involves the entire abs, but primarily it works the rectus abdominis muscle and also works the obliques. It allows both building six-pack abs, and tightening the belly
Perform 2 sets of 12 each
2)Bent leg v up
(Step 1 Lie on your back with your legs straight. Place your hands by your sides. Step 2 Lift your shoulders off the ground as you sit up. Lift your feet off the floor simultaneously and bring your knees toward your stomach, balancing on your glutes. Slowly lower to the starting position.
Perform 2 sets of 10 each
3)flutter kicks
A Flutter Kick is an exercise that specifically targets the lower abdominal wall. You perform this move by lying on your back and using your core to “flutter” your legs up and down. You’ll often see this type of move performed in Pilates, barre and strength training classes
Perform 2 sets of 14 each
4) alternate toe touch
Lie on your back with your arms to the side, and legs raised at a 45-degree angle with the floor. At the same time, raise your right leg up and lift your torso. Reach your left hand toward your right leg, as if you’re trying to touch your toe. Return to start and repeat on the other side.
Perform 2 sets of 16 each
5) Russian twists
To perform the Russian twist, first, one should sit on the floor with knees bent as in a “sit-up” position. The feet should be kept together and slightly above the ground or put under a stable surface. The torso should be kept straight with the back kept off the ground at a 45 degree angle. Arms should be held together away from the body in a straight fashion and hands kept locked together like a ball or one can hold a weight to increase the difficulty. Next, the arms should be swung from one side to another in a twisting motion, with each swing to a side counting as one repetition. The slower one moves the arms from side to side, the harder the exercise becomes, working the abdomen that much better. The Russian twist is a type of exercise that is used to work the abdominal muscles by performing a twisting motion on the abdomen.
Perform 2 sets of 16 each
And unless you’re adding significant resistance to your ab routine or working them so hard that they are noticeably sore the next day, you’re safe to work them every day. But, just because you can work yourabs every day doesn’t mean it’s the most effectiveway to attain a strong core, flat abs or lean physique.
