Easy Abs in Just Minutes a Day
We all strive to have great looking abs. Many of us can’t afford to go to a gym or pay for a professional to comse to our homes and work out with us.
But, the next best thing is actually in your living room or bedroom. All you need is you and a few minutes a day to start toning up those abs and feeling great once again.
To begin, start off by changing your eating habits a bit. Add in more fruits and vegetables to your diet. If you begin to crave sugar, reach for a piece of fruit instead of a candy bar, if you are just feeling like you need to munch, reach for some baby carrots.
Now its time to get started on those abs. First off, ease into a new exercise routine. Don’t jump in with both feet and run, you will get burned out quickly and then you won’t be motivated to keep trying. Your best bet is to start working out only a couple of days a week. You only need about 20 minutes to work on your abs.
You may need the following to get you going; a bar that attaches to the bottom of your door this is to help hold you in place or if you don’t or can’t find one, then a good sturdy sofa to hold yourself in place with. This is found to be a quick and simple fix.
1) Let’s get started. It is best to start off with light stomach crunches. Sit on the floor in front of your sofa or the bar that you have attached to a door. Stick your feet under the edge of the sofa or bar. With knees bent, lay back, cross your arms over your chest, lift up slightly off the floor towards your knees. Do this about 10-15 times.
2) Time to modify this movement a bit. With the next set that you will be doing, as you raise yourself up, you want to twist slightly to the right lay back again, then on your next move, twist slightly to the left. This will help work the side muscles of your abs as well. Do this exercise about 10-15 times as well.
3) Now on this next exercise, lift yourself up fully off of the floor to you knees. This exercise may be hard to do the first time or two that you do it. Take it slow and don’t rush, you don’t want to hurt yourself. Do this exercise about 5-10 times.
The more often you do these simple abs exercises the flatter and stronger your abdominal muscles will become.
