Contrary to what many believe, abdominal
workouts do not need to be done in the gym. Your abs don’t need to be tormented through the
hi-tech apparatuses or by the squeaky cable machines.
In fact, the best abdominal
workouts you can possibly get are right in your own
home.

H
owever, the key to making your self-crafted abs workout turn your jelly belly into a blazing
six-pack is the big ‘V’. Variation.
Blending a number of different motions and exercises
with all sorts of variations in motion, speed, and resistance can shock your midsection into the
washboard of your desire.
First, wear light clothing that will make you more agile,
allowing your movements to be steady and flowing.
Start With
Crunches
Plop down on the floor and take a deep
breath. Prepare yourself mentally. This abs workout will consist of one long, continuous set
with no breaks in between various movements. Maintaining constant strain on your abs is the
key here.
Start with basic crunches. You can either place your hands behind your head or
leave them by your sides. However, do not pull your head up with your hands. Bend your
knees so that your feet remain flat on the floor.
Slowly allow your shoulders to rise off the
floor without using your back whatsoever. Begin with 50 slow, strict repetitions before adding in
a twist.
A Russian twist, that is. Raising your shoulders off the ground, slowly twist your
torso from side to side. You want your right elbow turning toward your left knee and your left
elbow twisting toward your right knee. These will seriously burn so try 20 of these with a strict
form.
Jump right into leg raises. Extend your legs in front of you, making sure that your
feet do not touch the floor. You want to start with them together, about six inches off the floor,
before raising them so that your legs form a 45-degree angle. Feel your rectus abdominis tear
throughout the 25 repetitions that you crank out.
More
Crunches
Whip right back into a set of crunches. Except
this time, try them with your legs straight, extended flat out across the floor. While you’re doing
these crunches, pretend that an imaginary string is pulling your upper torso off the floor. Make
the 50 repetitions flow while the abs grind.
Without hesitation, fling your legs into the air
and take on a set of pikes. Your arms are out straight, pointing toward the floor, as you raise
your shoulders in an attempt to touch your toes. All the while, your buttocks are lifting slightly
off the floor. As you lower your shoulders to the floor, your legs come down again, into a bend
position on the floor. No sooner do they touch that you’re beginning the next repetition and the
motion flows through 25 agonizing reps.
On the last rep, leave your legs straight up in
the air so your toes are pointing toward the ceiling. Crank out 30 crunches to intensify the burn.
If you face difficulty in maintaining that 90-degree angle at your hips, slightly lower your legs to
the floor.
Then, cut through those abs with some scissors. Lower your legs so that
they’re 12 inches off the floor and lock your arms behind your head. Lifting your right shoulder
off the floor, twist your torso just as your opposite leg – or left knee – bend into your right elbow.
Immediately lower your knee and shoulder and then twist your left elbow toward your right
knee. Try doing 25 of these before lowering your shoulders to the mat for the final exercise of
the workout.
Even
More...Crunches
This will be another set of 50 basic
crunches, just like the set that you began the workout with. Exercise slow, strict reps as the
burn spreads like wild fire.
The final rep will leave you feeling like you narrowly escape
a blazing building in one piece.
