Best
Stomach Exercises
When it comes
to looking good the stomach is one of the most important parts
of the body but it can also be quite difficult to get rid of any
excess belly fat. While having a balanced healthy diet and taking
regular exercise will help keep you in good shape there are also
a few techniques that you can use to improve the appearance of
your stomach.
There are
many types of exercises that work the different parts of the stomach
and its best to incorporate all of them instead of just concentrating
on one area as this will prove to be less effective in reducing
belly fat. The best stomach exercises combine working the oblique
(which are the side muscles), the lower abdominals, the mid section,
and also the upper section.
The most effective
exercises that work the stomach are called crunches. The great
thing about these exercises is that they can be performed anywhere
and don't need any special equipment. As well as the basic crunch
there is also the side crunch which works out the oblique.
Crunchless
Crunch
The first
exercise is fairly simple but can also be quite difficult to perform.
It involves trying to pull the belly button in towards the spine.
This exercise can be performed by either lying on your stomach
or kneeling. Once you are relaxed you need to try to use only
the lower abdominals to move your belly button towards your spine
and then hold this position for ten seconds. As the muscles become
stronger over time you can hold this position for a longer period
until you either cannot feel it, or you feel the other muscles
working harder around your stomach. When you feel this, let the
contraction out.
Side
Crunch
The second
exercise is similar to the first but requires you to lie on your
side rather than on your stomach. If you are lying on your right
side you need to bring your right arm across your waist so that
it rests on your left side. Then you need to touch your head with
your left hand so that you left elbow points forward. Lift your
shoulders up off the floor while simultaneously raising your left
leg to a height of about twelve inches and contract your obliques
while doing this. Hold this position for a few seconds and then
lie back down. Repeat this process multiple times and then switch
to the other side of your body.
Its important
to remember that each person's body is different and will respond
differently to certain movements. So what one person may think
is the best stomach exercises may not necessarily be the best
for everyone else. So if you are serious about working on the
abdominal muscles you should try out several different stomach
exercises and then determine which one feels the best and gives
the best results.
