Lower Abdominal Workouts – Proper Workouts For One’s Lower Abs

Lower abdominal workouts focus on your lower abs, a hugely overlooked region. This is where the unpleasant abdomen bulge looms, and love handles appear. When individuals grumble concerning their lower abs, it is typically excess fat that they are mentioning. To shed excess fat in your lower abs requires losing fat all over your body.

Below are a few exercises that will help you uncover and tighten your lower abdominal muscles.

Changing Supine Leg Walks/Leg Lifts

To begin with, with both hands beneath your buttocks lay on your back. Lift your legs so that they are vertical. Tense up your abdominals so your midsection is stressed.

For Alternating Leg Walks, bring down one leg right until your foot is a few inches off the ground. Delay for a few seconds and return that leg to the start position (vertical). Change the leg you lower.

For Leg lifts, lower both legs til the back of your feet are just above the ground, hold for a few seconds and return to the vertical position.

Scissors

To start this work out you need to lie on your back with your hands under your buttocks. Contract both your lower abs and leg muscles, raising your legs to around two feet off the ground. Avoid bending your knees and cross your right leg over the left. Open your legs back and then cross your left leg over the right leg. This is called the scissor activity. Try to make about 8 – 10 reps, eventually building up to 15 as your strength permits.

Double Leg Circles

Lay on your back with your hands under your buttocks. Lift both legs a few inches off the floor, turning them in circles. Make 5 circles in a clockwise path, and then lower your legs for a few seconds. Lift your legs again and do five circles in an anti-clockwise direction. Over time, increase to about 10 – 15 circles.
