Any Workout Suggestions in Addition to These?!
Question: Any Workout Suggestions in Addition to These!?
Okay, I'm 26 I'm 5'5" and I currently weight 126!.0 pounds!. I have already lost 6 pounds and intend to continue dieting until I can get to my goal weight of about 121!. My typical workout routine consists of the following: I workout on the treadmill for 40 minutes daily at a brisk walking pace with a steep incline!. Then I do a set of 10 plank exercises to work the abs, followed by 3 reps of 12 bicycle style ab exercises (where you are lying on your back and your elbows meet your knees alternately)!. Finally, I work on my ab lounge with 2 sets 30 reps each on both sides (for obliques) and 2 sets 50 reps each basic crunch!. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can work my abs harder (I'm really trying to get them flat) or any suggestions for if I need to add something or vary something in my workout routine!? Oh and I do my workouts daily!. Thanks!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its endless,
You must have Muscle balance if you want to be in great shape!
So work all your muscles not just your abs,
as a matter of a fact if you only work abs without working erector spinae muscles (lower back muscles) it can cause your back to arch since the tighening of the abs pulls you down!.!.
And remember one thing 70% lies in nutrition and a good diet!.!. Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

You need more repetition!. Quadruple every exercise you have and throw in alot more cardio for weight loss!. But also think about it, would you rather lose 5 pounds, or tighten your abs and core so much it looks like youve lost 10Www@Answer-Health@Com
do some upper body strengthening/weight lifting to balance out your body

Try and take an abs class if you can at your gym!. It definitely whips you into shape a whole lot better than exercising on your own!. But if you can't try working them out consistently for a decently long interval, 20+ min!. Sounds cheezy but maybe an abs video may help!.
As for losing weight, after about 30 minutes of exercise fatty acids become the main staple of energy!. So you want to do a cardio workout for 30+ min to run off of fat!. I'm in school for sports medicine and that comes from my anatomy book!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
