10 Steps To Getting Your Best Abs Ever - Advanced Course


1. Slow down. Concentrate more on feeling the muscle you are working, contracting and slowly releasing it, than on getting so many reps done. Don't rush through the movement.

2. When doing crunch movements, let your upper back come off the floor, but never pull on your neck. Concentrate on using your abdominals to do the work.

3. Do your cardio. This is key to burning the fat so those muscles will show.

4. Add weight, not repetitions, to your ab movements. Until I started using weights, I could not get the results I was looking for.

5. Use a medicine ball. Start out with a light weight and work up to your desired goal. Concentrate on using the ball correctly and maintaining excellent form to avoid injury.

6. Invest in a vertical leg raise apparatus, or use one at the gym. You can really hit the abs with this.

7. Do your ab work daily. Ab muscles do not need a day of rest. You can work them seven days a week.

8. Hold your abs in throughout the day. Train your abdominal muscles constantly.

9. Eat a diet low in fat to avoid excess bodyfat. Fat will obscure your abs no matter how hard you train them.

10. Don't eat 4 hours before bed. Those calories tend to be stored as bodyfat.
