Best Stomach Exercise For A Six-Pack

flat stomach exercises
Chung Leong Yu asked:


A physique is never complete and impressive without a lean, mean and strong mid section! Not only does a rock hard six-pack abs look damn fine, strong abdominals are vital in many sports and physical activities. In order to obtain fine abdominals, one have to undergo a healthy diet and laser targeted stomach exercises.

Sometimes it is hard to identify which are the effective stomach exercises that you should choose. Not to worry, here we have listed a couple of free easy stomach exercises to help you get you abdominal shield!

Best Stomach Exercise 1: Hanging Leg Raises

This is a powerful exercise for your abdominals. Hang from a bar with your legs hanging straight down. From there, raise your knees toward your rib cage. Do not swing or use momentum, just focus on squeezing your abs. You must keep your abdominals flexed. Use your abdominals to lift your legs up. To obtain maximum effectiveness, go slow and make your abs work harder. If you want to work your oblique, simply raise your knees to one side of your body.

Best Stomach Exercise 2: Side Bridge

Do not underestimate the side bridge. It may look simple but it can give you that burn you would not forget! Lie on your side with your legs straight out. Elevate yourself with one bent arm parallel to the floor. Hold that position for around 30 seconds and then repeat on the other side. Build up to at least 60 seconds on each side of your body.

Best Stomach Exercise 3: Decline Reverse Crunch

The only equipment needed for this exercise is a decline bench. First, hold the top at the end of the bench with both hands and lie on your back. Hold out your legs so that your legs are parallel to the floor. Keep your knees and feet together. Squeeze your abs slowly and draw your knees up towards your ribcage. Keep your abs constantly flexed. Then slowly lower your legs to original position. Do around 20-30 reps.

Best Stomach Exercise 4: Hanging Raise To The Side

This is a fantastic stomach exercise. It really works your oblique and lower abdominals. To execute this, hang from a bar with your legs and feet slightly together. The bar should be high enough so that your toes cannot touch the ground. Slowly raise your knees under control to one side as high as possible. Curl your spine during the process; it is not just about lifting the knees. You have to contract your abs hard at the peak of the movement and then lower your legs to the starting position as slowly as possible. Repeat on the other side. You can either do it all one side or alternate. Do not use momentum to help you in this abdominal exercise.

Best Stomach Exercise 5: Bicycle

The bicycle exercise is one of the best flat stomach exercises. It is named bicycle because of the way the exercise is performed. This is a stomach exercise that really targets the entire abdominal region and also the oblique.

Lie on your back; support your head with your fingers. Draw your knees in towards your chest and lift the shoulder blades off the floor without pulling your head. Like all abdominal exercises, keep your abs in constant tension at all times.

Straighten the left let out while simultaneously turning the upper body to the right, bringing the left elbow towards the right knee. Now switch sides, bringing the right elbow towards the left knee. Do about 20 rotations for each set.

Best Stomach Exercise 6: Crunches On Exercise Ball

This is the stomach exercise where you will be laying on an unstable surface. Lie face up on the exercise ball with lower back on the top of the exercise ball. Support your head with your fingers lightly. Squeeze your abs and curl your torso up. Keep the ball stable throughout the motion. Do about 20 to 30 repetitions.

There you go, six easy stomach exercises for you to do in your fat loss program! Remember, if you want a flat stomach and define abs, you have to combine a healthy diet and cardio training too. Good luck and enjoy!

Stomach Exercises – Kicking The Love Handles Off You!

flat stomach exercises
Abhishek Agarwal asked:


A common complaint that most people trying to look dashing have, is that of a fat belly especially, many people have problems with their “love handles.” Far away from their lovely ones or lovable, these are fat deposits which take up their residence one’s lower torso’s sides, around the outer oblique muscles. Old sit-ups and crunches won’t do that much for this kind of fat, as they only work the abs and not on the oblique muscles. The good news is that there are quite a few stomach workouts which target the oblique muscles, helping them trim these love handles. Like any new physical work, do consult a professional’s advice before starting and warm up properly to avoid injuries.

Side Bend

It’s a simple workout, and also the most effective way for losing these love handles. Stand upright. Position the feet to shoulder width and bend the knees lightly. Lower your whole body to 1 side, then to another. Lean side to side, doesn’t lean forwards or backwards.

Torso Twist

This exercise is also very effective in reducing the love handles, and it’s good to do it after doing the side bends in the routine, as this is done in standing position as well. Again, with the feet shoulder width away, twist the body from one side, to other. The key is to twist your torso, not the hip. As much twisting work possible must be done by the oblique muscles, not by your hip’s flexor muscles. Keep the torso upright without bending.

Side Crunch

Next 2 stomach exercises will want you to go off from your 2 feet and lie, preferably on the ground or any other flat surface. Do use a towel or a mat to cushion, if you might have a quite hard surface to work upon. Lie on one side. To be simple, let us assume you are on the right to start with. Bring the right hand across your hip such that your right arm comes and rests on the left side. Touch the ear with the tips or your finger of your left arm, such that you’re left elbow winds up and points straight upward. Then, Lift the shoulders from the floor at the same instant raising the left leg about 12 inches (about 30 cms). Contract your oblique muscles when you perform this. Hold on for some time, and then lie back. Do this for a full set, then switch on to the other side too.

Seated Knee Drop

Position yourself over the floor such that you rest on your hip-bones (i.e., not sitting using your butt). You may put the hands over the surface behind you for keeping yourself stable in that particular position. Bend the knees such that your feet would be flat over the floor .Also, keep your ankles together. Then, lower the knees to your right side. The feet might roll to their respective sides, but they should remain upon the floor .Do continue this move until the knees are six inches over the floor. Hold on for 1 second, and then go up and down again to the left. Move slowly under control, using the abs muscles rather than your momentum to lower and raise your legs.

Why Almost Everyone is Wrong About Stomach Exercises and Abdominal Muscles

flat stomach exercises
David Grisaffi asked:


“Stomach exercises” are among the most frequently asked about and searched on (via internet) yet misunderstood subjects in the entire field of health, fitness and exercise. Regardless of age, experience or gender, everyone wants a flat “stomach” because the abdominal region is the true showcase of your physique. Since the abs are usually the last place to “shape up” and “lean out,” then most people would say that if you’ve got abs, you’ve got it all.

Well, in my way of thinking, this is only partially true. There’s more to a complete physique than “abdominal exercises” and “six pack abs” and most people are completely wrong about “stomach exercises” and “”stomach muscles.” (you’ll find out why in just a moment)…

The Difference Between “6-Pack Abs” And Truly “Fit Abs”

Having a great looking set of abs is very much a matter of low body fat. But make no mistake, just being lean and seeing a “six-pack” doesn’t mean you are strong, fit or conditioned. Real fitness means more than visible muscle development, it means strength, endurance, and stability, and this type of true functional fitness does not come from merely eating the right foods or reducing your body fat.

Nutrition is so important that you could even say that “abs are made in the kitchen, not in the gym” and you would not be telling a lie. But this clever maxim is not telling the whole truth either. Great abs come from nutrition AND training, not one or the other. The training develops them. The nutrition uncovers them.

Don Juan Ponce de Leon arrived in America in 1493 looking for a fountain of youth and today in the “stomach exercise” marketplace, it seems that far too many people are looking for a “magic fountain” in order to flatten their waistlines.

Ponce never found the fountain of youth and you will never find a magical solution for flat abs. There are no short cuts. It takes a change in lifestyle to get a change in health, physique and performance. That includes nutrition AND training. There’s No Such Thing As “Stomach Exercises”

THIS is your stomach! Proper choice of exercise is a critical factor in your quest for a firm and flat waistline. But you will never get a great “stomach” from ANY “stomach exercise” because your stomach is a part of your digestive tract, not your skeletal muscular system! So let’s get the terminology straight, shall we? The area of you body you really want to improve is called your “core region.” Many people refer to it as the “abdominal region.”

However, training only with “ab exercise” is NOT the optimal approach. The abdominals only include the front (anterior) side of your body and if the only type of training you do is abdominal training, you may be unwittingly setting yourself up for lower back problems. If you don’t think this is serious, then consider this statistic: According to the

American Chiropractic Association, more than 31 million Americans are suffering from low back pain at any given time. So would you like to trade great abs for a bad back? I didn’t think so. The good news is that you can kill two birds with one stone. You can develop great abdominal muscles, great core muscles and a strong, pain-free back by using exercises that focus not on the “stomach,” (which is not a muscle you train at all), not on the “abdominals,” (which is only part of the muscles you need to target), but on the entire core.

The core is the key to your success. The core is the entire complex of muscles around your hip and waist region from your lower rib cage to the bottom of your pelvis. If you just focus on “abdominal exercises” alone (or “stomach” exercises, LOL), you will develop what I refer to as a “one dimensional body.” I focus on training the body as a whole, or “multi-dimensional training” to develop a complete person and to develop effective and powerful athletes.

What every program I write has in common is that I do not attempt to “isolate” the abdominals (or train the “stomach muscles!”) It’s all about the core and about integrating your body as a unit so you function better in daily life. As you do core-focused exercise programs you are improving not only your muscular system but also the systems that drives your muscular system – that is, the nervous system.

This may very well be the most important secret for getting better results in your workout programs. The more efficiently your nervous system works, the better your results will be. Core workouts that improve both muscular strength and conditioning while also improving neural drive and develop stronger neural control of the associated muscles.

This type of training for your core may very well be the most important secret for getting better results in your workout programs.

* THIS is why my “brand” of core training gets results in women who have had C-sections, or other abdominal surgeries when nothing else worked

* THIS is why the core exercises I recommend will flatten out a “pooching” belly, which is a result of deep muscular weakness and lack of neuromuscular control (It’s NOT just a body fat problem!)

* THIS is why my clients have overcome lower back when all else failed

* THIS is why my workout program have helped men and women recover from embarrassing incontinence

* THIS is how I have helped hundreds of new moms regain their flat and firm midsections after having their babies

* THIS is why my clients remain injury free, while so many other training programs are actually the CAUSE of injuries * And THIS is why my type of training – PROGRESSIVE CORE TRAINING – develops amazing athletes – top wrestlers, PGA golfers, and pro boxers with powerful punches and abs of steel. I’ve written an entire book about core training (“Firm And Flatten Your Abs), which you learn more about on the Flatten Your Abs home page, as well as dozens of articles which you can read elsewhere on this site (or you can subscribe to my biweekly newsletter).

The purpose of this article was not to give more workout routines (there are plenty of core training workouts to be found on this site and in my book and lots more to come in upcoming issues of my newsletter). The purpose of this article was to “install” 3 incredibly important lessons into your brain:

* You can’t train your “stomach” because your stomach is an internal organ of digestion not a skeletal muscle!

* You can’t totally “isolate” your abdominals because your abdominals do not work in isolation, they work in conjunction with the rest of your body (and “isolation” as with only doing crunches, is not the optimal approach anyway).

* You get more by training your core! You become a better athlete, you help prevent injuries, you get stronger and you get that coveted 6-pack abs look. I hope the “morals” of these lessons have already sunk in and will become a part of your own fitness philosophy… and the next time you hear someone talk about “stomach exercises”, you’ll now be able to get a good chuckle out of that.
