Pushing towards great looking abs is a standard goal for many folks. So what types of free exercises to flatten stomach fast are the most effective without using expensive ab exercise equipment? This is a short list of some of the more effective abs exercises that you can do to see some ends in a little while.
One key thing to note is that abs are made of many muscle collections and are a ‘system’, not separate parts. The best way to enhance your abs is to work on the muscle group as a whole to gain optimal performance.
Exercise ball crunch : An exercise ball is an especially effective tool for core strengthening and will produce the quickest most conspicuous results in the appearance and toning of your abs. This actual exercise works your rectis abdominis muscle.
Position yourself, face up on the exercise ball, your middle to lower back should be resting on the ball. Place your arms behind your head.
Concentrating on your torso, contract your abs and pull the bottom of your ribcage towards your hips.
As you curl upwards, try to keep the exercise ball steady ( be sure not to let it roll ).
Lower yourself back down, and repeat this for twelve – 15 reps.
Vertical Leg Crunch : This exercise will work your obliques as well as your rectis abdominis.
Lie on the floor on your back and extend your legs up with your knees crossed.
Contract your abs so you feel your shoulder blades lift off the floor.
Keep your legs still and envision moving your belly button to your backbone at the apex of the movement.
Lower and repeat the entire movement twelve – 15 times.
Bent Leg Hip Raises : This exercise will target your lower abs and is safe for your back.
Lie on the floor with your knees bent, heels on the floor and your chin towards your chest.
Keep your feet together and focus on using your lower abs to raise your hips off the floor, bringing your knees towards your forehead.
At the head of the movement, your feet should be right above your head.
Lower your legs back down, let your feet gently touch the floor, repeat twelve – 15 times.
These are just a few effective exercises. There are plenty of more, and to add difficulty and power, weights can be added in to most abs exercises.
