      Abs Exercise Isometrics: focuses on the strength and tone
      of three aspects of the abs and core:

      • The Rectus Abdominus (the muscles forming the "six-pack")

      • The Transverse Abdominus (the muscles that pull in your stomach
      and keep your stomach flat)

      • The Obliques (V shaped muscles that taper your waist line,
      also known as the "love handles")

      Each position should ideally be held for 30 seconds at the beginning.
      It should be noted that your blood pressure can rise dramatically
      when performing these techniques, so if you suffer from
      hypertension or a heart condition check with your doctor first.

      Here are 3 of the most effective Abs Exercise Isometrics:

      The Isometric Stomach Flattener:

      • Sit up tall and straight in your chair.

      • Breathe in deep and suck in your stomach as hard as you can.

      • Now tense your stomach hard, as though bracing for a punch –
      still keeping it sucked in.

      • You feel that tightness, a slight quiver in the muscles?
      Good, that’s the start.

      • Breathe out tightly making an "ssssssss" sound.
      You’ll feel your abs getting tighter.

      • As you breathe out, crunch your abs really hard,
      rotating your pelvis upwards and your rid cage inwards.

      • Breathe all the way out.

      • Relax.

      The Side Bridge:

      • Lie on your right side.

      • Make sure that your ankles, through your hips,
      past your shoulders and to the tip of your head is all in a straight line.

      • Prop yourself up on your elbow, making sure it’s directly below your shoulder.
      This will bend you at the hips. Your forearm should be flat on the ground
      and pointing perpendicular to your body.

      • Straighten your whole body like a plank of wood.

      • Hold this position while sucking in your abs for 30 seconds.

      • Repeat on the other side.

Isometric Body Extension:

• Go into a box position facing down on the ground. (arms straight and under shoulders, knees under hips, toes pointing backwards) .

• Bring your hands together.

• Slowly begin walking your hands forward. Maintain a level back.

• As you progress you will naturally bring your hips forwards, don’t move your knees.

• Extend you body out as far as you can.

• Keep you back straight and level with your butt.

• Tighten in your abs as though trying to touch your hands to your feet and crumpling up the earth between.

• Hold this position for 30 seconds (if you can ;-)

• As you get stronger extend yourself as far as you can without touching the ground.

If you’ve followed the above Abs Exercise routine it should have taken no longer than 2 minutes and you have just done a complete abs workout! Your abs should feel warm (maybe slightly stiff if this is your first time), stretched, relaxed and powerful. Try it again after a day's rest.
