how to get perfect abs
Steve Hochman asked:


Everyone these days is working to get in shape, and they want to see results quickly. These quick and easy exercises will give you a better, more toned stomach with little effort and fast results! Using these three quick exercises will allow you to quickly firm up your abs. As you grow more accustomed to these three exercises you will be able to increase the number of repetitions that you complete, but be careful not to overdo it!

Each of these three quick exercises should take ten minutes or less, and within four weeks or less you will begin to see incredible, positive results, guaranteed! All that this means is that you need five hours a month to spare in order to get your abs in the best shape of your life!

Quick Ab Exercise #1 – Sit down on a sturdy high back chair with your torso completely straight. Bring your arms back behind you so that you are giving support to your lower body. Extend your legs, pointing your toes outward in the process. Hold this position for between 5 and 10 seconds. Then slowly bring your legs up toward your chest, squeezing both your abs and buttocks in the process. Hold this position for between 5 and 10 seconds. You have just completed one single repetition. Complete this set at least five to ten times a day, every day, in order to achieve the best possible results.

Quick Ab Exercise #2 – In this second exercise, you should begin by laying down flat on your back. Lock your hands together behind your head. Slightly bend your knees, and spread your legs slightly apart. Now slowly lift your upper body to your knees in a crunch, making sure not to put any unnecessary pressure on your head or the back of the neck. You should be using your abdominal muscles for the lifting rather than anything else. Hold this position for between 3 and 4 seconds before slowly returning your body to the starting position. Make sure not to jerk or move hastily when returning to the floor. When you begin doing this exercise, two sets of ten repetitions every day is a good place to start, increasing the repetitions and sets as you become more accustomed to the exercises.

Quick Ab Exercise #3 – The third quick ab exercise also involves beginning by laying down on your back. Just like before, you are going to want to bend your knees and spread them apart slightly. Extend your arms out, and slowly lift your body up toward your knees. With your hands, reach as far as you possibly can, stretching your fingers out. Hold this position for between 3 and 4 seconds, and then slowly return your body to the floor. You should begin with two sets of ten repetitions each and every day, increasing the repetitions and sets as you become more accustomed to the exercises.

Figuring out the right exercises to tone your abs, along with the rest of your body, can be difficult if you do not have expert help from someone who knows how to generate results.

Want Perfect Abs? Try These Three Steps

how to get perfect abs
Sylvia Camarillo asked:


Are you tired of seeing all of these people on TV or at the beach with a perfect six pack? You look at them and then look at yourself. The comparisons are less than flattering. If you wish that you could have great abs like them, you are not alone. Many people wish that they had a flatter tummy, but tell themselves that they cant have one. They listen to the generic excuses like I have bad genes or some people just cant have a six pack. They get it in their head that these generalizations are true. However, they couldnt be further from the truth. You can have great abs, but its going to take some work. There is no shortcut that you can take and tomorrow morning have a six pack. So be prepared to do some work. Just remember that it can be done.

How exactly do you go about perfect abs? You have to take a holistic approach to your ab routine. You cant just do 1000 crunches and expect to get a six pack. If you have a flabby, fat stomach now, youll undoubtedly need some cardio exercise and a healthier diet as well. Even if you develop your abs to be very strong, youll never notice them if you have a layer of fat over the top. The only way to achieve this is by getting out there and doing some cardio exercise to burn the fat. Yes, this means that youre going to have to jog or ride the bike or do some sort of exercise. Theres really no getting around it.

Besides cardio, you need to institute a healthy diet into your daily routine. If you eat a lot of unhealthy foods, the body will store the excess right in your stomache fat. If you do all of these ab exercises and then continue to eat nothing but junk, youll be shooting yourself in the foot. Once you have these first two aspects under control there are a few exercises you can do to develop your abs.

To achieve a perfect tummy, follow these three steps:

1. The first exercise is called the toe-touch. It is pretty self-explanatory as you touch your toes during this exercise. First of all, lie flat on the floor on your back. Put your arms up above your head and then lift your arms and feet off of the floor slightly. Then lift your legs straight up and your arms as well. Touch your toes with your fingers and then count to three. Then release and put your arms and legs back parrallel with the floor again.

2. The second exercise you need to do is the reverse curl. In this exercise you start out lying on your back on the floor as well. Put your arms down to your sides. Lift your legs and your **** up off the floor and use your arms to keep you balanced. You will undoubtedly feel a pull in your abs as you lift your legs straight up into the air.

3. The last exercise is the twisting crunch. For this exercise you start out on your back again. Bend your legs into a 90 degree angle and fold your arms across your chest. Lift your shoulders up and flex your abs to the right. After you do it to the right, alternate to the left. Do this as many times as you can and youll get a great ab workout.

If you implement these changes into your daily routine, youll have perfect abs in no time.

Five Pitfalls to Avoid in Achieving Six Pack Abs

Peter Harris asked:


Every guy I know strives to get a six pack of abs at least once in his life.  Achieving the six pack can be a never ending battle and often a very frustrating one.  The answer to the question how can I get a six pack of abs has eluded most men and women for what seems an eternity.  Part of the problem is that for every fitness guru you ask you will probably get just as many different answers.  How can you tell what the truth is and what is hype.  This article can help.

I listed 5 areas that advertisers and marketing experts use to draw those of us that are unsuspecting and desparate to try anything to achieve those elusive abs.  We all want to have that trim waist and those rippling abdominals.  Isn’t that why you are reading this?  Here some pitfalls to avoid in your quest for the six pack:

1. Many so-called “health foods” are actually cleverly disguised junk foods that actually stimulate you to gain more belly fat… yet the diet food marketing industry continues to lie to you so they can maximize their profits.

2. Ab exercises like crunches, sit-ups, and ab machines are the LEAST effective method of getting flat six pack abs.

3. Boring repetitive cardio exercise routines are NOT the best way to lose body fat and uncover those six pack abs.

4. You DON’T need to waste your money on expensive “extreme fat burner” pills (that don’t work) or other bogus supplements. A special class of natural foods is much more effective.

5. Ab belts, ab-rockers, ab-loungers, and other infomercial ab-gimmicks… they’re all a complete waste of your time and money. Despite the misleading infomercials, the perfectly chiseled fitness models in the commercials did NOT get their perfect body by using that “ab contraption”… they got their perfect body through REAL workouts and REAL nutrition strategies.

Advertisers spend millions of dollars to promote the products mentioned above.  It is so easy for us to fall for their claims, which are often over-exaggerated.  Don’t let yourself be sold on these false claims.  You will only be disappointed in the end.
