DEVELOPING THOSE SEXY AND STUBBORN LOWER ABS!!!

Lower ab workouts you can do anywhere

It's important in these busy times to know how to be creative with how and when to workout so you can do your lower ab workouts anywhere anytime.

There are some lower ab workouts that you can do anywhere which are as effective as those you can do at the gym.

First you need to make a plan of action and give yourself goals. In order to shape your abs you can't only make abdominal exercise and hope you will be losing fat, it doesn't work this way. The nutrition part is very important too. And we are not going into that now but please feel free to scroll below to read about it!,

My advice is to look for healthy diet plan, you will also need to focus on the aerobic training. This is a kind of simple math... you must burn more calories than you put in to start losing fat. So, you will need to sweat! 2-4 workouts a week, half hour per day of low level should be enough to start the aerobic training.


Here are a few good exercises that you can do:

Pelvic Tucks

Sit on the ball and keep your feet about hip width apart on the floor. Let the ball slide to your back and keep you heels fixed on the floor. Let your pelvis fit on top of the ball. Bring your upper body about two inches up and go back to the original position. Do that 3 times of 20 reps.

Waistline Chops

Sit on the ball and let it roll until your back fits well. Bring your hands together with straight arms on top of your head. Chop to the sides rising up your body just a bit from the ball. This exercise is very good for your oblique muscles. It will give you a trim waist. Also do 3 times of 20 reps.

Crunches

Crunches exercises with stability ball is one of the best lower ab workouts you can do. The ball gives you the possibility to increase the range of the movement and as you improve it, it becomes easier to make the exercise more intensive. Start with your belly button centered over the ball and hands behind your head. Lift up slowly from the ball, concentrate on the abs working. Try to do that at least 3 times of 15 reps.

Keep in mind that results come with consistency. Make your lower ab workouts regularly and get a good diet plan.

CHALLENGE ISSUED - WHO WILL ACCEPT!!!!!!

here we go, take on the challenge if you are brave enough to handle the burn of a this fat burning, ab building, core cutting, body shredding workout for sixpack abs!!!

Drop it like a SQUAT!!!!!!!!

hey all, so I want to tell you about those buns of steel. a great lower body workout includes the core partially and helps isolate the core for partial workouts as well as lifting those Glutes for a more round and toned look.


I just squat every time I leave my office during the day and my kitchen during the evening.

10 squat penalty for making errors on typing/forgetting my keys, etc the point is to make the penalty low reps. and a fun penalty at that.




ENJOY THE LIFT, LOVE THE BURN

Morning shake replacements!!! Shred season 10 weeks in

So now it's shred season and I have been changing nothing about my morning shake until now: 

I will be substituting some stuff as follows:

no more milk instead now I will be using water. 

I will only use half the berries I was using before and add some vevo flavoring.

I also use less liquid ( less water than milk) by a little more than half, less liquid more solids allows for a thicker blend giving you the thick milky feeling lol.

enjoy the work, love the burn!

Ok so simple just start with a simple workout :

25 crunches 

20 push ups 

30 squats
