           The Super Hero Ab Attack

Can you imagine batman with swelled belly or Spider man swinging around with a belly so bulged out that it looks like he has baby in his belly?

Superhero are the symbols of extraordinary powers and they all have awesome and strong abs. Who doesn’t wants those awesome looking abs?

So here we are with an ab workout that would help you attain those awesome looking abs and a strong core.

But before starting, we must understand that you cannot see your abs if you have a fat layer deposited over the abdominal. So, your nutrition must be low in fat in order for you to see the abs.

The Workout:

Warm up: Ab twists for 2 sets and 20 to 40 reps/set and spot jumping for a 100 reps.

1. Leg raises with dumbbells

Just lie on the decline bench with your head away from the floor and hold a dumbbell in between your legs and try to raise your legs up while keeping the legs a little bent at the knee. Bring the legs down and again raise them. You must always keep your legs in control and keep the motion slow and smooth for maximum benefits.

Perform the exercise for 3 sets for reps to failure.

    2.  Weight crunches

Just lie on the floor completely straight, hold a plate behind you head with elbows narrowed over your head, just try to raise your upper torso a little so that you feel the contraction on the upper abs, don’t try to get up completely. Perform the exercise for 3 sets for reps to failure.

   3.  Oblique twist crunches

Just get on the decline bench with a plate or a medicine ball in your hands. Keeping your arms straight perform a crunch just moving to one side and completing the contraction on one side of your torso, come back and perform again but going to the opposite direction your torso so that you stress your oblique. Perform 4 sets taking the reps to failure.

 

    4. Plank

Just the old fashioned plank, just perform it one minute on and one minute off for 3 to 5 times. This increases the core strength and stability and is a great workout finisher.

 

This workout will surely stimulate your abdominal, oblique and the core. Keep stretching the abs throughout the workout.

People suffering from back pain or any other back problem please consult your physician before performing any of the exercise given abs. We want you to be fit and that you don’t hurt yourself.
