5 Abs Exercises for a Flat Stomach

We all are so obsessed with a flat tummy these days, thanks to ladies like Deepika Padukone and I can’t remember any other women with a perfect abdomen. Summers are possibly the best season to work out, since you sweat a lot even if you work out minimally. 😛 But perfect abs isn’t a tough job to achieve if you spare in some time at the gym or simply work out the right way in your living rooms.

I am revealing the top 5 flat stomach exercises in this article with sure shot results, but the only necessity is you do them everyday….without any whining and grinning. OK, I spare you ladies with at least 3 times a week work out of these exercises. If you are in a hurry for losing that hanging flab a little bit quickly just pair them up with some cardio exercises.

Bicycle Crunch

This exercise is directly targeted at your abs. Lie flat on your back and bend your knees. Stretch your one leg hip width at a distance. Put your hands behind your head and lift your neck, head and shoulders simultaneously. Raise your feet about 1 to 2 feet above the floor. Hold the position. Now bend your knee back and lower the upper body. Do the same on the right side. About 20 such crunches a day shall help you get rid of the flab.

This one is also targeted to your abs. All you need to do is lie down straight on your back with arms at your sides and palms flat down. Now bend your knees at 90 degrees and the claves must remain parallel to the floor. Now try to engage the abs and lower the toes of the left foot down so that they touch the floor. Now lift the foot up again and do the same for the right side. Repeat for 25 times alternatively for each leg.

Side Extension

This exercise is targeted at your shoulders, obliques and core. Stand with feet apart, and knees bent. Hold a 1 litre bottle with both your hands and the hands must be over your head with shoulders down. Now lean the upper body forward and to the right slightly. Hold in your breath for 5 seconds and stand up straight. Now repeat this for 10 times alternating each side.

Standing Twist

This exercise is targeted to tone down your arms, shoulders and obliques. Stand with feet apart and knees bent. Hold a bottle of 1 liter water right in front of you. Now lift the left leg and balance on the right one. Engage your abs and twist to the left, the feet shouldn’t move. Repeat this for atleast 15 times switching sides. Each side must have a twist for 15 times.

Now extend your arms to your shoulders and the palms must remain in. Engage your abs, right arm and the left leg to the floor without the back arching or shoulders shrugging.

    @Swati – I dont do more than 10 surya namaskars. And that to me is so tiring ke I cannot do crunches even. But yes Surya Namaskar does tone your muscles well. Even a lazy lump like me can see the difference. if only i could progress on my number of surya namaskars a day
