Ab Exercise Tips
- Be sure to breathe normally. You should NEVER hold your breath while doing ab exercises.
- Do not exercise your abs on consecutive days. Allow yourself a day of rest. Resting your muscles (even abs) is equally as importantant as working them. Every other day is generally ideal.
- Use your hands behind your head lightly. Resist the urge to "pull" your head which can cause strain on your neck.
- Listen to your body. A good muscle burn in your abdominals is one thing, but if you feel uncertain pains in your back and/or neck, do not push it.
- For overall health and fitness and to make sure your abs will show their best, mix cardio, weight-lifting and a healthy diet into your lifestyle. A strong core will help you burn more fat, but a strong BODY will burn even more.
