Stupid Lower Region Of Abs - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Duck2Day · 07-01-2003, 08:11 PM

I'm going to keep this short and straight to the point because I'm tired. I feel the burn and everything whenever I do crunches and things like that, and have pretty well defined abs, (I'm not bragging because they're certainly not the best, and it's probably because I'm rather "slender") the upper portion of my abs are defined very well, but the lower isn't as much and I'm not quite sure how to work them out, if any of you guys out there have any exercises that would focus mainly on the lower portion of your abs and that works could you please help out?

try some leg raises or reverse crunches

do leg raises by lying down legs straight raise legs to a 90deg angle then push them in the air slowly come down to about 45 deg angle and repeat

goto www.bodybuilding.com plenty of exercises listed on the right in exercise tab

also try eating less fatty foods and do some cardio less bodyfat will always make em look better

if you have access to a gym, you can do leg raises (see link below) or by using a kickboard in the pool and using only your feet to propel you. That burns calories and (maybe?) isolates your lower abs.

here is a link to a machine that allows you to do leg raises - definietly not an endorsment to the site:

I have the opposite problem! Lower is reaasonably defined, given that I'm fat and out of shape ;P Upper is poofy.

How much do you weight vs how many calories your intaking in a day. Time spent doing cardio? Is it optimal time where your burning fat for fuel. It takes the average male 25 min with their heart rate at 65% of their THR before they even begin to tap in to their fat storage, some even longer unless you use timing to your advantage and force the body to start 5 minutes into your cardio session.
