That means you'll have a smaller waist size, flatter stomach and look great in jeans!
The lower abs make up the abdominal wall the supports the weight of the intestines when you're standing. To have a flat stomach, you have to keep this area toned so it holds the intestines flat when the abdominals aren't flexed, and so the stomach doesn't carry excess fat.
What is this fabulous exercise that will help you lose stomach fat and develop great lower abs?
Here it is:
- Lay down on the floor. Clasp your hands behind your head (but don't push on your neck). Or grab a table leg behind your head to hold your arms and sholders in place.
- Bend your knees and raise your legs until your thighs are perpendicular to the floor.
- Press your low back into the floor as hard as you can (this is important as only the lower ab muscles can do this).
-
Now, keeping your knees in the same position, roll your pelvis forward and arch your back.
- Rock your pelvis back and forth. Once you get the movement, you won't need to move your legs at all. As you get stronger, you can extend the legs out to add weight to the exercise. You can even add a dumbell between your feet while you rock!
In addition, it's always smart to cut down on calories, eat a healthy, nutritious diet and exercise regularly preferably with a good cardiovascular exercise routine in addition to your stomach exercise.
Be sure to do this exercise regularly. It may be your best bet to losing stomach fat and strengthening your lower abs.
