Are you frustrated with your belly fat? Does it feel like no matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to shake it off?
I want to share with you some of the most powerful stomach exercises for women.
But before I do, I need get something out of the way. Stomach exercises are the least important factor in getting a flat stomach.
Yet women focus most of their attention on stomach exercises when they want to get flat abs.
Fat burning is like a On/Off switch. Once you put your body in fat burning mode, it will burn at, but you cannot choose to ONLY burn the fat from your stomach.
And doing stomach exercises will not specifically burn fat from the stomach.
With that said, the plank is one of the best stomach exercises for women there is.
Doing this one stomach exercise is going to help you keep you stomach "sucked in" and therefore give your tummy a flat appearance.
Plank
Lay face down and balance your weight on your forearms and toes.
Align your body so that it forms a straight line from your ankles through your neck.
Hold this position for the prescribed duration or as long as possible.
Don't forget to breathe.
Performing the plank flat on the floor may prove too difficult or too easy. That's why I am going to give you multiple variations. Choose the one that's appropriate for you and try to move up to a more difficult variation.
Easier variation - Bench Plank
Same as the plank, but with forearms resting on a bench instead of the floor.
Harder variation: 3-Point Plank
Same as the floor plank, but with one foot slightly off the ground. Switch sides midway through the set.
Even Harder Variation: 2-Point Plank
Same as the floor plank, but with one foot slightly off the ground and the opposite side arm pointing straight ahead.
Hold right foot/left arm off the ground for three breaths, then switch to left foot/right arm for three breaths. Continues in this manner for the duration of the set.
Another variation you can try is the side plank. It's the same as the plan described above, but performed sideways. Do the left side then take a short break and do theleft side.
Do the planks along with a fat burning workout plan and you'll have a flat stomach.
Good luck.
