Certain exercises can be executed to sculpt, tone and define the six-pack of those abdominal muscles. These are the types of movements professional athletes use to enhance stamina and flexibility. Not to mention, overtimes, these tummy tucking exercises can help your create a six-pack. For the following exercises, theses props are needed, a workout mat, sturdy chair, and a resistant band. Maximize weight loss by adding these fitness moves on.
The Lazy Crossover
Find sturdy chair without arms and sit erect with both feet planted on the ground. Bending the arms into a 90-degree angle behind the head, gradually lift, the left leg toward the right elbow. Keep the abdomen contracted toward the spine with each movement. Alternate the elbow and knee crossover. Perform the exercise for one to two minutes.
Resistance/Stretching Band Pull up
Using a resistance/stretching band, lay on the backside and feet firmly planted on the ground with knees bent. Keeping the abdominals contracted, tuck elbows close to the sides of the body, as both bent arms pull the stretching bands up toward the chin. Both the head and shoulder should be slightly elevated, upward.
Repeat the exercise 10 to 12 repetitions.
The Mermaid
On the belly-side, laying on a workout matt, with arms close to the side of the body and legs stretch out straight. Gently, lift up the head and extend arms above the head in a swimming motion. Then lift up the legs from the ground as if it were a mermaidŐs tail. With the arms, slightly bent moving forward and back, elevate shoulder blades, with arms on the side, legs and head elevated, hold for five to seven seconds. Contract the abdomen.
Repeat five more times.
