Lower
Abs Exercise - Abominal Workout
Get Your Flat Abs With Leg Raises
Hanging Leg Raises are becoming one of the most
popular abdominal exercises, and with good reason.
This intense movement is a great way to target the
entire abdominal region including the difficult to
hit lower abs.If you’re not already incorporating Hanging
Leg Raises into your ab routine on a regular basis,
you should give them a go. Here’s the basic
technique. |
|
|
You begin the movement hanging from a Lat Pull-up
bar. Your grip should be about shoulder width apart,
and your arms should remain fully extended throughout
the movement. You want to bend your knees slightly and keep them
bent throughout.
Now, using your ab muscles only, raise your legs
up to a point where your feet are about level with
your belly button (note: you do not want to swing
your legs up with your hips—focus on your abs).
As typical with abs, hold the peak contraction for
a count of one or two and squeeze hard. Perform the
negative portion of the movement slowly by lowering
your legs resisting somewhat on the way down. Repeat
for a tight set of 12-20 reps.

Lower Abs Workout - Training Lower
Abdominals
Have you tried Vertical Lying Leg Thrusts yet? These
are a great target exercise for your lower abs.
Begin by lying on your back; I like to do the movement
on a flat bench, but it also works on the floor.
Now lift your legs until they’re vertical.
Tuck your hands under your buttocks, and make sure
your lower back is flat on the ground.
To perform the movement concentrate on tightening
up and squeezing together the muscles in your lower
abs. Your legs and your lower torso should move upward
toward the ceiling.
Remember, the feeling you’re after is one of
tightening and squeezing in your abs; and it’s
this squeezing that should lift your buttocks off
your hands.
Lower your torso back down to complete one rep. The
most important thing in lower ab training is not how
many reps you do but how hard you squeeze.
