How To Burn Calories And Stay Fit ‌ Forever
The Strong Stomach Workout For most people setting out on any abdominal workout routine the goals are simple; either a less flabby waistline and a flatter more flattering stomach, or a stronger, more healthy set of muscles. Ideally everyone should be aiming for a balance of the two.
A flatter stomach is great and looks much more flattering, especially in a swimsuit or a pair of shorts, but in reality this is less meaningful if it is only skin deep. It is important that the central muscles as well as the outer ones are worked adequately so that the stomach area is stronger and healthier as well as more attractive. It is no use building a beautiful facade on weak foundations since beauty is only skin deep after all as the old axiom goes.
Below are a number of stomach exercises which work to create strong muscles throughout your abdomen. As with all exercise routines, be sure to take professional advice before starting and always fully warm up to prevent injury.
Toning Up Your Torso Prepare for this exercise by kneeling on all fours, both knees and both hands flat. Still looking down, keep your stomach drawn in and extend your left arm straight out in front. Keep your arm outstretched as you extend your right leg out behind you. Bring both back to the starting position then switch your arms and legs, and repeat the exercise for a full set. Your torso and pelvis should remain static throughout.
The Butt Burner You need to lie on your back here and we recommend using a mat or a towel. Bend your knees so that your feet remain flat to the floor with both arms by your side. Lift your pelvis and as you do so contract your buttocks so that the muscles feel squeezed tight. Raise your pelvis to fortyfive degrees, so your upper body from your shoulders to your knees maintains a straight, flat ramp. Hold this for a few seconds before slowly lowering your pelvis back to the floor. Make sure that you use your stomach muscles as you lower yourself rather than letting gravity assist you. Complete an entire set of these.
