How can I get my lower abs more defined. I do situps and crunches all the time and it seems like I cant tone up lower abs. Can you help?
I get this question a lot. Here are a few exercises that you can do to get your abs in better shape.
1. Leg Lifts
Start off by laying on your back with your hands under your buttocks. Lift your legs so they are vertical.
Contract your midsection by engaging the upper abs.
Then, lower both legs so that the back of your feet are right above the ground. After holding that position for a few second, return your legs to the vertical position.
Repeat.
2. The Ab Wheel
Yes believe it or not the ab wheel is a great workout for your abs. Try it out and make sure you do the exercise properly so you dont hurt yourself.
3. Kick Boxing
I bet you didn’t expect that to be the third exercise! Kick boxing is an excellent way to develop the lower abdominal muscles. The abs are used quite heavily every time you throw a kick towards the heavy bag. Whack on some sneakers and go out and try to kick the heavy bag 100 times for each leg without stopping. Round house kicks where the top of your foot strikes the side of the bag are the best for this.
