ABS

Keys for better ABS

1. Keep the motion smooth and under control . Don't use momentum or try to race through your reps. Go slowly and strive to feel the muscle contracting without the assistance of any other muscle groups. Momentum robs the muscle from doing the work , reducing the muscle building stimulus.

2. Don't pull your head with your fingers , which can lodge your chin into your chest and distrupt natural alignment . When supporting your head , don't interlock your fingers , your hands should simply be supporting your head , not helping you pull on it . Keep your head in line with your torso by imagining a tennis ball positioned between your chin and your chest.

3. For your maximum intensity on your ABS moves , hold your breath as you complete the move , then exhale at the end of range of motion . Holding your breath allows you to maintain intra - abdominal pressure allowing your ABS to contract stronger.
