Many of us are not keen on spending a few hours in the gym, but recent research shows that even 15 minutes of exercise every day can effectively burn fat, improve your resistance, endurance and metabolism.
Try our exercise program and work out your abs in the summer.
We have developed an exercise program to flatten the abdomen.
You don’t need any special equipment – a yoga mat is enough.
Sports are not suitable for everyone, so we should take into account our physical and health conditions.
Keep in mind that exercise is most effective when combined with a healthy diet! 1.
Sit ups is one of the best exercises for flattening your abdomen that everyone can think of, because it can help you easily burn abdominal fat.
Lie on your back.
▩ Bend your knees and put your feet on the mat.
Feet together or slightly apart.
▩ Put your hands behind your head.
Make sure your thumbs are behind your ears and your fingers support your head.
Don’t cross your fingers because it will put extra pressure on your neck.
▩ Lift the upper body off the floor.
Exhale as you rise, keeping your elbows apart.
Make sure you bend your abs when doing sit ups.
▩ Return to the initial position.
Inhale as you descend.
▩ Repeat 10 times.
Start with 3 groups.
Later, you can do 4-5 or more groups during exercise.
2.
Side bending This exercise will stretch and strengthen your oblique muscle to prevent “unstable top”.
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart.
As you inhale, raise your arms above your head.
▩ Lower your right arm from the right side, extend your left arm over your head when exhaling, and bend your body to the right.
▩ When inhaling, return to the initial position and raise your arms above your head.
Do the same for the left side.
Make sure you only bend at the waist and use your oblique muscles.
▩ Repeat 10 times on each side.
Make 3 groups.
If you want to further strengthen your oblique muscles, you can also do dumbbell side bends.
3.
The vertical leg lifting exercise will strengthen the lower abdominal muscles.
▩ Lie on your back with your legs straight and together.
Keep your arms straight at your sides.
▩ Lift your legs while keeping them straight.
Slowly lower your legs so that they are slightly above the floor.
Hold the position for a few seconds.
▩ Lift your legs again.
Inhale as you lower your legs and exhale as you rise.
If it is too difficult for you to lift your straight legs, you can start by lifting your legs with your feet crossed.
▩ Repeat 10 times.
Make 3 groups.
The slower you do this exercise, the harder it will be.
So if you want your lower abdominal muscles to be really strong, try lifting weights as slowly as possible.
4.
The forearm plank support exercise may seem simple, but it is very effective in strengthening your core muscles – the abdominal muscles, diaphragm and pelvic floor muscles.
Lie on your forearm.
Place your shoulders directly above your elbows.
Your arm should form a 90 degree angle.
Step back and lift your knees.
Keep a straight line from the heel to the top of your head and look down.
Tighten your abs and keep this position as long as possible.
When this position can be maintained for 60 seconds, more complex plate support can be carried out.
