Always remember to breath and do the exercises slowly

If pain occurs stop that exercise immediately

1, Supine Raises (each leg hold up 3 x 20 seconds)

. First you lie flat on your back with knees and feet shoulder width apart

. Make sure there is a space under the middle of your back where you are not touching the floor. This is called having a neutral spine position

. Slowly lift one leg, then lower it and lift then other leg. You can do this repetitively or just hold the position for 10 to 30 second

Arms by side, you can also alternate opposite arms to legs so that the shoulders get a workout.

2, Crunches (10, 12, 15)

. While we are lying on the floor it is a good time to do some crunches, bend your knees until your soles of your feet rest comfortably on the floor.

. Put your hands by your ears {never behind your head!!} or place then across your chest and slowly lift your shoulders off the ground. Then lower. For advance crunches hold the position for 5 to 15 seconds

. Always look directly over your knees and limit your head movement, this will stop you from getting a sore neck

3, Oblique twist (3 x 10 each side)

. The oblique twist position is also on your back in the same position as the crunch

. Put your hands by your ears and your elbow pointing out

. Raise your feet off the floor, bring one elbow slowly to the opposite knee while pulling your knee in towards your chest, then slowly reverse the movement and start straight away with the other knee

. Slow movements, bringing one knee in and push the opposite leg out while the opposite elbow reaches for the knee. Don’t forget to breath

4, Reverse crunch (10, 8, 6)

. In the same crunch position we drop our arms down by our side for stability

. This time cross your feet together and raise your feet until your shins are parallel to the ground

. The reverse crunch is raising the bottom of the floor by contracting your abdominal muscles

5, The Prone Hold (3 x holds for 20 seconds)

. The Prone hold is a more advanced core activity however it can be modified for beginners

. Lying face down we prop ourselves up on our elbows which should be directly under your shoulders.

. The first beginners stage is then raising your mid section up onto your knees, always maintaining a strong core and flat back. Hold this for 10 to 30 seconds

. Then after a while of abs workouts you can start to lift the knees up onto the toes

With a little help from the instructor at my local gym I was able to make achieving my flat muscular abs a reality. It took several months of hard work to see my new sexy eazy abs, but the end result looked fantastic and my partner could not keep her hands off them. The best part was that now that I had achieved the eazy abs, they would be much simpler to keep than they were to achieve. Once you have achieved your goals at the gym you are normally put onto what is called a maintenance program which is a lot less physical than the programs you do to try and achieve the results in the first place. The maintenance program was for only every second day rather than the normal daily dose of abdominal workouts.

Eazy abs should have been the name of the class that the instructors had encouraged me to attend. Usually consisting of 12 or more abdominal exercises the class was broken down into 3 phases. Firstly we worked the upper abs by doing the regular crunches, pulse crunches and other alternative sit up exercises. This was to work and burn the top four of the eight showing abdominal muscle which are called rectus abdominis. There are actually eight of them so where the name 6 pack came from is beyond me. The second part of the workouts was to engage the obliques; these are the muscle groups that are closest to the sides of your abs. In this part of the easy abs workout we did a lot of oblique twists and side toe touches which really did burn that muscle group for a really good exercise. The last of the muscle groups was worked at the end of the eazy abs session. The lower four abdominals called the lower abs were worked by doing lower ab crunches, reverse crunches and leg raises. It was a tough exercise program, but after my sixth week I really could see a huge difference in the definition of my abdominals and was then proud to take my shirt off at the beach.

Easy abs can be achieved through regular exercise which will help condition and strengthen your abdominal muscles to provide support for your mid section and also offer you better posture. Good support of your mid section will help benefit other exercises, especially those above the waist line. Strong abs will provide you with the ability to lift heavier weights in weight training. Stronger abs will reduce the chance of internal organ damage caused by impact on the body. Having strong support will also reduce back problems by keeping good posture. The clincher for most people is that achieving awesome abs will give you a sexy muscular look which is very attractive to the opposite or same sex.

Easy abs can be achieved by working the abdominal muscles on a regular basis, even as much as a daily workout. The abdominal muscles are very resilient to exercise because they are used in everyday motion and activity. Without abs the only thing holding us up would be our spine which is brittle and easily disrupted at the best of times. Easy abs can be achieved by doing a workout without specifically targeting the abdominal because we need to engage our abs in any form of exercise.

It is important to know that our abdominal are part of our core muscle group. They are used in every position like sitting, standing and even when lying down. Most movement cannot occur without the engagement of this muscle group. The rectus abdominis, internal and external obliques and the transverse abdominis are the three main muscle groups used in an abdominal workout. Like any muscle group the abs should be warmed up before rigorous exercise commences.

There are many standard abdominal exercises which include the sit up, crunches and oblique exercises. These standard exercises can be manipulated or altered to achieve a higher or lighter intensity workout by reducing the speed, adding further pulses per crunch or raising your legs to add more resistance. Aids for easy abs include the wobble board, Swiss balls and incline benches. With a little motivation and regular activity it is possible to achieve easy abs over a relatively short period of time, sometimes as little as 6 to 8 weeks. Beware of marketing propaganda that advertises instant results. Like any muscle group or cardio vascular advancement, easy ads will take more than a few workouts.

As you probably know, summer is right around the corner. And as we all know, summer is all about enjoying the hot weather at the pool in a swimsuit. While summer is supposed to be the most fun season of the year, for many people, it is the most stressful season of the year. The reason that the summer months cause so much stress for many people is because they are uncomfortable with the way that their body looks. And for most, the main source of feeling uncomfortable is because they aren’t happy with the way that their stomach looks.

If this is the situation you have found yourself in, it’s important to realize that you are far from being alone. It is completely natural for people to feel self-conscious about revealing their body to others. However, it is also important to understand that it is possible to get the body that you want. Best of all, getting great abs is easier than most people realize (once you understand the key to accomplishing this task).

In reality, the key to sexy, eazy abs is to watch what you eat. Now, I’m not saying that you have to go on some kind of crazy diet. In fact, if you simply do little things to reduce your calories (such as grabbing a water at lunch instead of a cola), all of those little reductions will add up over time to make a big difference. Additionally, if you try to be active whenever you have some free time, the calories that you burn will also add up and make a big difference to give you the abs you have been wanting to have!

Getting great abs can seem like an impossible task. However, it is actually easier than you probably realize. The key to obtaining abs that look great is understanding what you need to do. While you can spend month after month trying out the latest diet and failing to see any results, one of the easiest (and most successful) ways to get great abs is to stick with the basics.

To begin with, you need to tone your abs. Accomplishing this task can be done by spending as little as five to ten minutes performing basic ab exercises like sit ups and leg lifts. Depending on your schedule, you can perform your ab routine anywhere from one to three times per week.

The next key to great abs with as little effort as possible is losing weight. Now, losing weight may seem really hard to do, but that’s because you are thinking about it too much. The way to lose weight without going crazy is to make small changes in your lifestyle. For example, if you want an easy change you can implement today, start substituting your usual sides with a salad. So, if you go eat a hamburger, instead of having fries with your burger, you can get a salad. This would have been difficult several years ago, but now that almost every restaurant and fast food place offer this option, there’s no reason you can’t make this change. When you combine this with some simply cardio, you will be surprised at how easy it is for you to get abs that look amazing!
