Best Abs Exercises for lower abs and upper abs

Best Abs Exercises Technique For 3-D Abs!

best abs exerciseCheck out any local gym and you’ll see inexperienced members training their abs with endless sets of situps and crunches, right?

While the abs are predominantly made of Type 1 (endurance) muscle fibers and respond to slightly higher repetition ranges,your abs are made up of muscle just like any other part of your body.

Therefore the best abs exercises to get that “cut” look are those that are resistance-based and treat them like any other muscle.

But there’s a special little trick you must know in order to maximize your abs training on your way to having a stacked 6-pack.

In fact, ignoring this principle, could force you to develop “lopsided” abs that are so common among beginner bodybuilders.

Let me share this secret with you now…

The main abdominal muscle you want to be working when training your abs is your “rectus abdominis”, that sheet of rippled muscle that goes from your rib cage all the way down the front of your body to your pelvis.

What’s unique about this abdominal muscle group is that the upper abs can work separately from the lower abs (to some extent)…BUT when you work your lower abs exercises, your upper abs are ALWAYS working as well.

This is why most people had overdeveloped upper abs but underdeveloped lower abs.

Here’s how to correct this…

Make sure you train your LOWER ABS first in your abs workout (ALWAYS!) which brings both upper and lower abs into the workload!

If you don’t work your lower abs first, you exhaust your upper abs too soon and when you DO target your lower abs, your upper abs will fatigue too fast and you’ll end up with under-targeted lower abs.

So the best exercises for lower abs are:

* Incline Leg Raises
* Incline Knee Ups
* Hanging Leg Raises
* Flat Bench Leg Raises

And then follow up with the best upper abs exercises:

* Crunches
* Weighted Crunches
* Situps
* Hanging Knee Raises

the best ab exercise hanging leg raises

best ab exerciseEver wondered what the best ab exercise is, well it is the hanging leg raise, period!!, but you need to perform this best ab exercise correctly to see the results.
Without doubt the hanging leg raise is the best ab exercise for faster muscle growth for a deep creviced 6-pack.
 
To demonstrate the key areas you absolutely must get right for the Knee Raise abs exercise, I’m going to break this movement down into 5 key areas.
 
The first one is grip:
Often times what happens is that your grip gives out before your abs do and you find you can’t support yourself long enough to reach failure in your abs.
 
The solution?
 
Get a set of either weight lifting “straps” or preferably a set of 1-Ton Hooks to alleviate your grip on the bar.
This allows you to “hang” from the bar without having to hold on for dear life, taxing your grip strength to failure.
 
Next, let’s look at the bottom position of the movement or the
“start” position:
 
While most people just hang straight down, this actually decreases your potential range of motion. 
 
What I like to do is try and bend my legs, arch my back, and bring my feet up as far in back of me as possible as if I were trying to touch the back of my head with my feet.
 
You’ll feel a great stretch in your abs using this trick and this is where you should be starting each repetition.
 
The next phase is the positive movement, when you’re bringing your knees up in front of you:
Here you want to use a controlled movement that doesn’t rely on momentum to bring your knees up in front of you. 
 
Let your abs do the work!
 
Breathing is also key here and you want to make sure you’re breathing out as you contract your abs and bring your knees up in front of you.

Next, let’s talk about the top position or “peak contraction point”:

While most people end the movement with their upper legs parallel to the floor, to get maximum contraction, you need to shift your hips UP and try to bring your knees up toward your head. This is what “crunches” your abs and allows you to really squeeze hard.

Hold that squeeze for a couple of seconds with all the air out of your lungs before moving into the next phase which is the negative movement.

Instead of just dropping your legs down, you want to come down in a slow 4-count descent to take advantage of gravity and the weight and resistance it offers your abs.  This will help better target your Type 2 Fast Twitch Muscle fibers to really stimulate some growth and help you carve out your 6-pack.

 Make sure you go through this mental checklist in your head for each repetition of your Hanging Knee Raises and you’ll see increased gains and better results from this incredible best ab exercise!

How to burn belly fat during exercise

overtriningMuch research has been done into the seemingly impossible task of “spot reduction” of body fat.

You know…like how to burn fat directly off of your belly WITHOUT taking away from the butt you’re so proud of.

While experts have claimed that there’s no way to “spot reduce” where you’re able to take of the fat, recent studies are showing that it may in fact be possible.

For example, scientists have studied exactly WHERE fat is burned from in order to fuel certain activities.

It seems that there may be a unique connection where the fat cells in the location of the muscles being exercised may actually provide the bulk of the long term fuel for your training.

This is NOT definitive yet, but it holds promise.

It also supports my theory (and again, this is ONLY my theory!) that your MIND-MUSCLE CONNECTION plays a STRONG role in how much, and WHERE you can burn fat.

In this article, I reveal a unique tip that I use to increase the “mind-muscle” connection to (again, in theory) burn more belly fat from your training by implementing a crazy “cardio fat blaster”…

Free muscle video: how to gain muscle lose fat

Gain Muscle Lose Fat Video

If you have ever wasted (I mean spent) any sort of time on a bodybuilding forum than you have seen the countless posts on, “Should I do cardio if I am trying to build muscle?”
The (silly) debate will never end and typically results in you destroying your frame that once had potential by attempting to bulk up but getting fat instead. Look at cardio as a tool to help you get muscular without getting fat and a pot belly at the same time. Bulking up does NOT have to equal getting fat. 
Watch the 4 minute gaining muscle and losing fat video below that clearly shows how to incorporate cardio
into a muscle building routine and address this confusion.

The main reason I addressed this issue is because I’m sick and tired of you completely losing your waist line, getting a double chin and gaining weight that only makes you look “bulky” and not ripped and muscular because you listened to someone who told you to not do cardio if you want to build muscle.
Your waist line will thank you for watching this video

Increase your strength by 300% and burn fat fast

ab_torso

If you want a 300% gain in STRENGTH? Do this…”
You should know by now that if your goal is to lose fat and build muscle, it’s absolutely critical to
pay close attention to your efforts to maximize your production of powerful GROWTH HORMONE (GH) in your
body. 

Released from your pituitary gland, growth hormone production peaks around puberty…

…but then slowly FADE AWAY as we age.

This is one of the reasons we get all “saggy” as we get older.  (Sucks, eh?)

You’ve probably seen some of the “Hollywood Insider” stories about all the rich movie stars hitting their
doctor up for injectable GH to “stay young”.

But they’re about to learn a SAD, SAD FACT…

While artificial GH supplementation DOES increase lean muscle, melt away the fat, and make you look
and feel “younger”…

Joint and muscle pain can eventually occur from artificial stimulation and once you stop taking it,
all benefits go bye-bye.

However, if done correctly, research has shown that NATURALLY stimulating growth hormone can pay off with
big dividends in a short period of time. (more…)
