When it comes to physical activity, the choice of targeted exercises is of fundamental importance to obtain the desired results in the shortest possible time without running the risk of injury.
If you’re trying to lose belly fat, start by doing some cardio, such as frequent walks or jogs, and pair it with a core-focused workout routine.
In this article we suggest the 3 abdominal exercises that you can do at home and which are the most effective to have a flat stomach in record time.
1. Abdominal crunches
Lie down on a mat, with your knees bent, your back and feet flat on the floor, and your hands behind your neck. He lifts his shoulders, squeezing the abdominal muscles, for 1-2 seconds, then slowly return to the starting position and repeat until the set is complete.
During the exercise, always keep your head in a neutral position, looking up at the ceiling. Exhale and squeeze your abdominal muscles as you do the crunch exercise.
Do 10-15 reps for a total of 3 sets.
2. Plank
Start in a classic push-up position, with your elbows under your shoulders and your feet slightly apart. Bend your elbows until your weight is supported on your forearms and toes, keeping your body in a straight line. Hold in this position for as long as possible (ideally 30 seconds or more). Squeeze your abs and glutes as you perform the exercise.
3. Supported double leg stretch
Grasp the base or seat of the chair with both hands. Start with your knees bent. Inhale as you straighten your legs away from your body and toward the floor (but never touch the floor). Straighten the legs as much as possible, pulling the belly button into the spine. Exhale and bring your knees back toward your body, pulling your stomach in. Repeat 10-15 times, depending on your strength.
