Burn Tummy Fat Exercises - Quick Abs Workout
By now, I hope that I've made it clear that you cannot spot reduce and cannot get rid of your tummy fat by solely doing these ab exercises; however, these abdominal exercises will provide a good foundation for you to build upon to train your mid section at home, in a relatively short period of time. Before you begin, you should bear some light and comfortable clothing, such as a t-shirt and some sweatpants. You should also consider performing these ab exercises on a soft surface such as carpet, or using an exercise mat if you're are doing them on hardwood floor. Follow the tummy fat exercises as listed in order:
Abdominal crunches - start off with a set of basic ab crunches. With your feet flat on the floor, you can place your hands by your sides, or behind your head. You may find it helpful to have someone hold down your feet. Raise your shoulders and upper body off the floor using your ab muscles. Perform 20 reps.
Abdominal twists - those first 20 reps should give you a good warmup. Next you do some ab twists. In the same position, raise your shoulders of the ground except do it with a twist this time. Keep your hands behind your head. As you curl up, aim for your left knee with your right elbow, and aim your right knee with your left elbow. Perform 20 more reps alternating left and right sides.
Flutter Kick ab crunches - next, you kick it up a notch by performing flutter kick ab crunches (sometimes called abs scissors). It's similar to abdominal twists above, but tougher, and burns more. Keep your legs extended in front of you, raised above the floor by about 10 inches. Next you perform crunches just like abdominal twists above, except the difference here is that for each rep, you're also curling your knee up to meet your elbows half way. For each rep, curl your shoulders off the floor, and start off with twisting toward the left side with your right elbow curling up to meet your left knee. For the next rep, you curl up and twist to the right side, with your left elbow meeting your right knee. Alternate like this, performing 20 more reps. By now, your tummy should be burning pretty bad.
Lying Leg Raises - place your hands either at your side, or under your bum, and extend your legs fully in front of you without touching the floor. Raise your legs up to the top, and the lower it back down to starting position, without letting your feet touch the floor. Perform 30 reps.
Abdominal Tuck Crunches - still lying on your back, cross your arms in front of your chest, or behind your head. Bring your legs up, feet together, and with the bottom of your feet pointed towards the ceiling. Curl your shoulders off the floor towards your leg, and then back down to starting position. Perform another 20 reps.
There you have it, a total of 110 ab crunches that works you abdominal muscles for a fantastic burn; however, keep in mind that while this gives your ab muscles a nice burn, doing this does not burn your tummy fat away. You can do this once, or several times, depending on your level of fitness. Finally, remember that doing abdominal exercises is not the solution to get rid of tummy fat - for that to happen, you need a good diet, nutrition, and a entire body workout program that works to burn fat everywhere, including your tummy fat.
