The Two Best Ab Exercises For A Flat Stomach And Great Female Abs

Before you start thinking it, "no it's not crunches". They will not get you the flat stomach and top female abs you're after. Crunches don't come close to the most efficient and effective two abs workouts I'm going to take you through later on in the article. In fact the injury level with crunches, either to the neck or back run at shocking levels, and the results obtained are poor.

Before getting onto the abs workouts that lead to top female abs, it's critical that you understand a fundamental truth.

"It does not matter how great you're abs are if they're covered by a layer of fat you're simply not going to see the muscle definition beneath them"

In order for the flat stomach and hot abs to shine through you're going to have to ensure a body fat level below 8% for men and below 12% for women. Once you get to that level the 6 pack abs will be clearly visible. The only way to get down to those levels is by intensive cardio workouts.

Back to building great female abs! The first exercise I'm going to recommend will surprise many people, but I recommend it on the basis of the latest scientific research carried out in Canada. They compared abdominal muscle activity during various exercises including those specifically designed for ab workouts. They found the exercise that registered most strongly was the simple squat. It worked the core abs muscles harder than many abs and lower back exercises.

Clearly if you really want to work those female abs hold some weights in your hands while performing the exercise. However don't feel you have to. The data suggests even light warm-up squats targeted the abs intensely.

The second exercise to achieve the flat stomach you've longed for is best done while sitting down. It's a special type of exercise known as isometric and made hugely popular by the Russians in the 1960s. It's a way of exercising without moving the joints and the associated muscles. Here's how you apply it to creating great female abs:

Breathe in deeply and pull in your stomach as hard as you can without causing yourself any pain. Now tense your stomach muscles hard as if you are about to get hit in the stomach and your bracing yourself for this eventuality. You'll start to feel the muscles quiver a little as they become tighter. Now breathe out keeping the tension in your stomach muscles and crunching them hard so that your ribs move slightly inwards. Relax, and repeat 10 times.

If you carry out these two simple exercises daily you'll start seeing those female abs popping out in no time at all. Your stomach will become flat (as long as it's not covered in layers of fat) and you're posture will improve. Add a little cardio workout to your routine and you'll quickly be on your way to fantastic results inside 6 weeks.
