HEALTH & FITNESS | WORKOUTS

Make your crunches do double-duty

 
Wanna blast ab flab and score a six pack in just a few weeks? This move will have you bikini-ready in no-time flat. Just add it to your cardio workout three times a week and get ready to hit the sand!

 

Since sculpting is about muscle control rather than momentum, you want to do these moves as slowly as you can. Begin each sesh with a 5-minute warm-up, like walking or jogging in place. When your finished, stretch your bod out to give your muscles some relief.

 

The Two-Way Crunch

Start by lying on your back with knees bent, feet flat on the floor. Raise your legs so your knees are above your hips and your calves are parallel to the floor. Place your hands lightly behind your head, elbows to the sides. Contract abs, pulling your bellybutton into your spine. 
 
Finish by exhaling, and then squeeze your abs as you lift your hips slightly off the floor. Bring your knees toward your chest, simultaneously lifting your head and shoulders a few inches off the floor. Inhale as you lower. Slowly repeat for 15 total repetitions.

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!! I really want to have a flat stomach by the time summer rolls around. I am on the track team and I don 5-6 hours of ballet, jazz and lyrical per week. The track team is an hour and a half a day three days a week. I try to run when I am not doing something that day, but I still have a little pudge on my belly. I have strong abs but they r covered by a layer of fat. I don 200 crunches a day and there is no improvement.

Hey Mod! any tips on losing weight fast for summer????

 

There is not way to loose weight fast, and that is not safe anyway. Just workout everyday and eat healthy.

Hey girls... just a quick hint, if you are trying to get 6 pack abs, and have some belly fat, before doing tons of ab workouts and stuff try to burn the belly fat first. Cardio is best for burning belly fat (running, waking, jogging, dancing etc.) Why you want to burn belly fat first is because you may devolop a 6 pack, but it my be hidden under your belly fat and actually make you look bigger. Hope this helps Smile xoxox
