5 Tips for Building Abs

>> Sunday, January 18, 2009


5. Try to train your abs on an empty stomach.

This allows you to burn bodyfat as fuel instead of carbohydrates.

4. Perform cardio activity before your workout.

When the body is warmed up as a result of cardiovascular activity, you're able to get a better contraction on your abs when you work them. The warm up enables you to better feel the deep muscular burning sensation when your abs are trained.

3. Contract and flex your abs in between sets.

This technique helps to build abdominal definition. Bodybuilders have been know to stretch and flex in between sets to increase muscle definition. It works!

2. Minimize rest time in between sets.

Try to only take 1 minute of rest [or less] time in between abdominal exercises. The goal is to keep rest to 30 - 40 seconds in between sets. Keep those abdominals burning!

1. Focus on the diet.

Your diet is the main factor in how your abs will look.
