What are the abdominal exercises?

The part of our body that is most prone to obesity is the abdomen. When too much fat accumulates in the abdomen, it will bulge out noticeably, which will affect our appearance. Many nice clothes can no longer be worn, so we can do some abdominal exercises in our daily life. Persisting in doing abdominal exercises for a long time can help tighten the abdomen to a certain extent.

1. Arched back exercise

1. Preparation position: Kneel down, raise your head, and keep your back straight.

2. Action: Arch your back, lower your head, contract your abdominal muscles, hold the position for 5 seconds, and return to the original position. Repeat 8 times. Exhale through your mouth when contracting your abdominal muscles, and inhale through your nose when returning to the original position.

2. Lateral flexion exercise

1. Starting position: Sit cross-legged with your hands on the ground at your sides.

2. Action: Slide the left hand to the left, bend the upper body to the left, raise the right arm, and then swing it to the left. Repeat the bend and swing to the left 4 times, and then return to the original position. Switch to the right side and do 4 times. Repeat twice. Keep your hips still when flexing sideways, and do the movements slowly and rhythmically.

3. Rowing

1. Preparatory posture: Sit with your legs bent and apart, arms raised in front of you, palms facing down.

2. Action: Extend your hands forward as your upper body bends forward, stretch your head toward your knees, and then return to the original position. Do this once every 6 seconds, and repeat 24 times. Tuck in your abdomen while keeping your back straight. Exhale when you bend your upper body forward, and inhale when you straighten it.

4. Leg Exercise

Lie flat on your back, stretch your left arm back and flat on it, straighten your left leg, bend your right knee and support yourself, and place your right arm flat on your side. Keep your back flat on the ground, raise your left arm forward and your left leg backward, and try to make them touch each other. Repeat 12 times, then switch to the right arm and right leg and do 12 times. The key is to pull in your stomach and keep your back straight.

The key to the above four movements is to use force on the abdomen. Only in this way can you achieve the effect of slimming the abdomen. In addition, when doing abdominal exercises, you must also pay a little attention to your diet. Only by combining diet and exercise can you see the greatest effect of weight loss. I wish everyone can lose weight successfully.
