I'm about to give you something you really want. I know you want it. It doesn't matter if you're a guy or a girl. As long as you're reading this, as long as you're interested in losing weight, there's one goal that we all want to achieve: A flat stomach.
It's the one thing that makes all great bodies look great. It allows you to look
and feel healthy and confident in anything you're wearing, whether it's a t-shirt
and jeans, a tight dress, or a swimsuit at the beach. Want to know the secret to a flat belly--no crunches required? Read on!
For years, I struggled with belly fat. But then I stumbled onto a secret that allowed
me to drop 55 pounds in just 90 days, and finally reveal that flat tummy of my dreams. And in this article, I'm going to show you some very effective exercises you can use to get that tight, washboard stomach.
I'm not talking about just the normal boring sit-ups or crunches, but very effective exercises you probably haven't seen before. Simple movements that will help you get that flat tummy of your dreams in a short period of time.
The first exercise is the lying bicycle: Lie on your back, with your hands behind your head. Lean forward, bringing your shoulders off the floor. Then, begin to lift your knees up off the ground. Begin cycling your legs as if you're pedaling a bicycle, going very slowly at first. As your left knee comes up, twist to try and touch it with your right elbow. As your right knee comes up, try and touch it with your left elbow. That is one complete rep.
Start out by doing three sets of 12-15 reps. As the exercise becomes easier, add more reps over time.
This is, in my opinion, one of the best stomach exercises in the world, as it tones both your abs and oblique muscles in one movement.
But you don't always have to train your abs directly to see results. Your abs are stabilizer muscles, used to help you balance yourself and stay upright. So you can train them indirectly by doing simple body weight squats. In fact, squats are one of the most effective exercises you can do if you want to get a flat stomach.
First, when you squat, your abs automatically engage to keep you from falling over. So each
time you squat down (especially if you squat as low as possible), you're stimulating your abs
in a way that's new to them.
Second, squatting works your leg muscles. Your legs are the largest muscle group in your body, so by working them, you burn a lot of calories, which helps get rid of the fat that may be covering your stomach. After all, you can have the strongest stomach muscles in the world, but if they're covered by a layer of fat, nobody will be able to see them! So by training your legs, you're getting the best of both worlds: You're training your abs while burning the fat that covers them!
Another way to accomplish this one-two punch is by walking, but with one very special twist. With every step you take, make sure to tighten your stomach muscles… and hold them tight for as long as you can. By contracting these muscles while you're moving, you're able to really engage them and get them working!
Use these unique exercises and you'll get results much faster than if you stuck to the same boring sit-up routine. It allows you to keep your body confused and get a flat tummy fast. Use these tips. And be sure to share this article with your friends, because once they see your new flat tummy, they're going to beg you to share your secrets with them.
