      How to Exercise Abdominal Muscles

      1. Air bike

      Many people know this. Lie on your back on the bed or the floor, bend your hands to support the ground, put your forearms against the floor, and keep your upper back, shoulders and head off the ground. Keep your feet straight and hanging in the air, about 10 centimeters from the floor. Remember not to lock your knees. Keep the abdominal muscles in a constant state of tension, and rely on the strength of the abdominal muscles to drive the legs to alternately pedal.

      2. Fitness ball crunches

      Sit on the fitness ball, slowly move your feet forward, and slowly move your body until you can lean on it comfortably. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart and place your hands on the side of your head. Start to stand up with abdominal curls, keeping your sternum facing your navel, pointing your chin towards your chest to avoid lifting your head, contract your abdominal muscles at the top, and then gently lower your torso, making your back round and gently touching your shoulder blades to the fitness ball. Repeat.

      3. Lift your legs and draw circles

      Hold both hands together on the floor, elbow joints at 90 degrees, keep your back flat, with the toes of one foot on the ground and the other foot hanging in the air. Then rely on the strength of your abdominal muscles to control your legs to make circular movements. Remember to try to maximize the range of leg movements.

      4. Sitting with legs crossed

      Lie on your back on the floor, with your feet together and straight. Remember that your legs are in the air, your knees can be slightly bent, and your arms are supported on the floor. Rely on the strength of your abdomen to control your feet to move left and right like scissors.

      5. Sit-ups

      Do 100-200 sit-ups each time, 20-30 as one group, at least 5 groups, the specific situation depends on the individual situation. You can add some weight appropriately, hold a dumbbell or discus or something in your hand, and put it behind your head for better results.

      How long does it usually take to train abdominal muscles?

      If you want to build abdominal muscles, it will take a longer time. If you insist on it every day, it will take about half a year.

      What to pay attention to when exercising abdominal muscles

      1. Persistence is the most important

      Three days of fishing and two days of drying the net will not build abdominal muscles. The important thing is to persist every day. The most reasonable exercise arrangement is to do aerobic exercise in the morning and strength training in the evening.

      2. Diet is very important

      High-calorie and low-calorie foods should be taken in cycles. For example, you can arrange high-calorie foods for yourself for several consecutive days, and then arrange some low-calorie foods for yourself to meet the needs of your body.
