Ab Tips : From Flabby To Firm

You can work out till you drop, but you will not get flat
abs until you lose the layer of fat in front of the
abdominal muscles. Here are some tips to losing the fat
that forms around your mid-section.

No Hands Push up

Laying face-down with arms extended above the head, lift
chest and lower rib cage off the floor. You may wish to
have a partner hold down your feet. Start with 10-15 reps
and work up 50 reps.

Curl

Sit on the floor with legs spread (wider is easier, narrow
is difficult). Lace your fingers behind your head, and keep
your back straight. Tip to the right, allowing your right
elbow to touch the floor. Keep those elbows drawn back.
Straighten your back and tip to the left. Back and forth.
Do 3 sets of 12 to 15 repetitions.

I recently had my annual physical examination, which I get
once every seven years, and when the nurse weighed me, I
was shocked to discover how much stronger the Earth’s
gravitational pull has become since 1990.
