Techniques on Abdomen Muscle Building Exercise Program
Strengthening your abdominals require an abdomen muscle building exercise program where the 3 major areas of your tummy are worked out thoroughly. What are those three areas? The first would be the front abdominal wall or rectus abdominis, the obliques located at the sides, and the intercostals which are located in a diagonal area across the sides of your stomach.
Not everyone doing crunches or other abdominal exercises see results that fast. And not all of the people going to the gym practice the right way to do these exercises. That is why it is important for you to control your movements and do the workouts well. Techniques are learned and practiced beforehand for optimum benefits. That is why you should learn how to do these things correctly from the start. It would probably seem much more difficult if you try to correct a wrong form that you may have been engaging for sometime. So start right, and end all workouts right for leaner, stronger abdominal muscles.
Crunches
You may have probably heard a lot about crunches, but you may not know how to do them perfectly. Ok then, here’s how: Lie flat on the floor with your feet a bit further from each other and knees bent at a certain angle. Support your head with your hands. Be sure that you wouldn’t make your hands do the whole workout or you won’t be enhancing your stomach area. Now, lift (Don’t bounce!) your head – making sure that you are facing the ceiling at all times. Exhale to put force as you use your abdomen to bring your head up. Remember: Don’t make your hands do the lifting. Hold the position for a few seconds while contracting your abdominal muscles. Slowly go down. Repeat the procedure.
Reverse Crunches
Another abdomen muscle building exercise program would include the reverse crunches. This time, for this exercise, you don’t have to life your head with your abdominal muscles. Rather, you lift your legs – keeping your knees bent. The same original position is applied here as the crunches described above. All that is different here is what you lift. So, exhale once again as you slowly lift those legs and contract your stomach muscles. Hold. Return slowly to your original position as you inhale. Repeat.
Leg Raise
Another stomach buster is the leg raise. You can do this by hanging from a chin up bar or you may use a leg raise station if your gym has one. Support your body with your arms and keep your upper body in an upright position. Now, raise those legs without bending the knees. Make sure that your legs have reached a position where they are parallel to the floor. Slowly return to the starting point. Repeat.
Frog Kicks
Get on a flat bench and keep your legs straight. For support, rest your hands - with palms down - at your back. Lean slightly backwards so you can easily use your stomach muscles to perform this exercise. Bend your knees and bring them close to you – touching or nearly touching your torso. Slowly straighten them and go back to your original position. Be sure that you don’t make your feet reach the floor throughout the workout. Repeat.
These are just a few exercises for abdomen muscle building exercise programs. Get to know more when you go to the gym. Just be sure that you will always perform them correctly so that you would be satisfied with the results.
