?Crunches. He's going to tell me to do lots of stomach crunches isn't he? Man if I hurt my neck doing another pointless crunch I swear I'm gonna?.? That is what many people think when they first hear someone telling them the secret to flat toned abs. And I'm right there with you. Crunches are boring, unproductive and shockingly ineffective compared to the two techniques I'll reveal later in this article.
The truth is the most effective abs exercises are performed Standing Up. But no gym instructor or personal trainer will tell you that and the reason is, most don't know. Pilates and stability ball instructors are perhaps closer to the secret of the six pack than anyone else. In both, you are taught basic pelvis and abdominal tension, but they never get further than that. They never get to the good stuff.
The secret to a well toned waist, a firm trim tummy, and strong sexy six pack ? is all contained in 1 word - Isometrics. Isometrics, defined as the contraction of a muscle without moving the joint, is the scientifically proven fastest way to build strength and muscle.
Before I explain step by step how to perform an isometric contraction for the waist I wasn't to explain a little bit about the actual muscles you will be working. One you will be familiar with, and it's the less important of the two. The other, well it's crucial for developing a flat stomach.
In the following exercises we will be working the Rectus abdominus and the Transverse abdominus. The Rectus is commonly called the six pack. It's a sheet of muscle running from the base of the rib cage (sternum) the pelvis. It gets the six pack look from the tendons running across it. Here's the thing though ? the rectus naturally curves outwards when developed ? meaning you get a muscle belly!
So how do you keep it in tight and flat and develop the coveted washboard look? That is where my friend the transverse abdominus comes in. He connects the rectus to the lower back and effectively pulls the abs inwards, towards the spine. The problem is very few people even realise they have one, and those that do don't know how to train it.
Well here's how?.
