Firm Up Your Lower Abs

 

   One of the hardest parts to work and target on your body are your lower abs.  The amount of questions I get inside and outside the gym about this body part are “off the charts. ”  So we decided to answer everyones questions with this great exercise from Fiterati.  Add it to your routine to get rid of that pooch.

Setup: Sit tall on the edge of a stable chair and plant hands on the chair seat edge.Action: Press down through palms to lift your butt and legs off chair. Hold this position for as long as possible, aiming for five to 10 seconds. Lower butt and legs to chair seat; rest for 10-seconds, then repeat. Continue this exercise for 60-seconds. To improve fast, practice abdominal holds daily, before increasing hold time.

Tip: To reduce body weight load and make ab holds easier, beginners can rest toes of one foot on the floor (source).

 

    Don’t forget that abs can’t be seen without the right diet.  You must rid your body of excess fat through diet and exercise to get the stomach you want!
