-- suitcase crunches- bend your knees and hips at 90* angles or a little less so your feet are off the ground.. the crunch your upper body with your hands behind your head so your elbows touch your knees... that pretty much works lower and upper
-- side sittups/ crunches- lay on you side and yeah
-- toe touches- extend your legs straight up in the air and touch your toes.. or you can put a med ball on your forhead and do crunches
--back extentions- you feel like a fish doing this one... but lay on your stomach and arch your back so your feet and head come off the ground... it gives you a sexy back
-- two count sittups- crunch up to a 45 angle and hold it for a sec or two then go up all the way.. hold and slowely lower down
there's a few... basically you can make them up... but keep going when you feel the burn.. like do ten more when you start to feel it, then switch to the other side... basically anything that keeps tention on your abbs will give you a flat tummy/ six pack in no time
also remember to drink lots of water, and stretch.. when you stretch you lengthen your muscles so they will get longer and leaner faster : ) tell me if that helps [ Laf16's advice column | Ask Laf16 A Question ]
