One of the best lower ab exercises

There are 3 ways you can feel it more in your lower abs

Put your legs out lower and lower each time
You can hold your legs out longer than 2 seconds (maybe 3-to-5 seconds)
You can place a weight between your ankles but...

YOU MUST KEEP YOUR LOWER BACK FLAT AGAINST THE RULER AT ALL TIMES TO REALLY WORK YOUR LOWER ABS!!

When you do this exercise 2-to-3 times a week you'll start to notice the pooch around your lower abs getting firmer & flatter after your 4th or 5th workout and...

Here's more exercises where you'll "feel it" more in your lower abs...

Nick,

Could it be subcutaneous water beneath the skin hiding your definition?

iNCREASEing water intake, keeping sodium at normal levels will help flush that out.

Hello, "m a 27 year old bodybuilder with this problem.I have this same 1/2 inch layer of skin covering my lower stomach. I'm 5'9, 185 pounds. My six-pack is very very defined. I'm convinced this layer isnt fat.Ive had it my whole life and even at my leanest 175 pounds I had it.Is lipo the only answer for me???

Nick | 04.27.09 - 4:07 pm

chace,

The only thing I can think of for loose skin is to do the workout at NowLoss.com/abs to try to firm up & tighten the loose skin but in reality - that may not work

ADRIAN BRYANT | 03.18.09 - 9:00 pm

Hi Adrain, I am a male, my weight is 143 pounds and im 6 feet tall
thanks again

chace | 03.18.09 - 2:46 pm

chace,

What's your weight & height & are you male or female.

Loose skin around the belly area maybe able to tighten up at NowLoss.com/abs

Adrian Bryant | 03.16.09 - 7:28 pm

Hi Adrian, I was a little fat, and I lose much weigh, and know I have flaccidity on my stomach. My question is, what can I do for that?, I do cardio and somedays abs, and I dont see results. I think that making abs isn't the solution cause thats flabby skin, so theres any food or something to improve my stomach because I dont want an abdominoplasty (Im 1
please help me, tell me something that I can do
Thank u very much!

Shannon,

Go here for a total ab workout

Adrian Bryant | 01.01.09 - 6:09 pm

#55

to do the lower abdomen workouts how long should it be done for?

Shannon | 12.31.08 - 1:40 pm

#54

Mondeezy,

It has more to do with you doing more "high intensity" cardio/intervals + diet than just doing ab workouts

Adrian Bryant | 12.23.08 - 10:26 am

#53

If I tighten my stomach muscles...I can definitely press against my stomach and feel the muscles where my six pack would be. Problem is, I have a 1 inch layer of skin and fat above the muscles so I can't "see" them. What can I do to get results that I can see? Cardio or more Ab workouts?

Mondeezy | 12.23.08 - 9:54 am

Kay N.,

I don't like crunches that much because you usually have to do 100's of them to see results plus I think everyone knows how to do them but...

In the future - I'll be releasing a video on weighted crunches where you only need to do 8-to-12 reps for results and...

I do feature a stability ball crunch here

Adrian Bryant | 12.11.08 - 5:23 pm

#51

Hey Adrian, I was just wondering why you don't feature any stomach flattening exercises involving crunches while laying flat on the floor. Just out of curiosity. Thanks!

Kay N. | 12.10.08 - 12:24 pm

#44

ally,

anytime your do an ab exercise - you're working all of your ab muscles because here's a secret...

THERE is no such thing as a upper or lower abs - JUST ABS and to lose that lower belly pooch...

You need to lose more fat while doing TVA exercises to flatten lower abs

Adrian Bryant | 11.20.08 - 1:14 pm

#43

I saw your video and i have been doing crunches for a few weeks not about 20 or 30 a day but all that seems to be doing is tightening my upper abdomin. How long and how many of these will i have to do to have a firmer lower abdomin? and is there any better or faster way to lose that pooch

ally | 11.19.08 - 6:59 pm

#42

Mary Jo,

Do this for your pooch and do this for your love handles

Don't do it more than 2-to-3 times a week so you can give your muscles a chance to rest

Adrian Bryant | 10.12.08 - 6:08 pm

Adrian,

I'm 16, 122 pounds and 5 feet tall. Sadly I was cursed with the Brazilian huge butt and thighs. Also, the lower pouch of my stomach seems to buldge. Is there anything I can do about it that is somewhat easy and do this before school, which is in 17 days ?

Adrian Bryant | 07.13.08 - 12:43 am

#23

Adrian,

Is there a preffered age group for your excersises? Im 15 and have been activley working my abs 3 days a week with one day intervals inbetween each workout day. When i flex, only my upper abs are visible, and where my lower abs should be my stoumach potrudes outward. It feels hard though, not flabby. Is this becuase my upper abs are stronger or more developed than my lower abs? If so, is it bad that my upper abs developed before my lower abs?

John Averys | 07.12.08 - 11:49 pm

Heather

tHE best exercises you can do are probably gonna be the flat stomach exercises here and i also recommend...

You look at all the other ab exercises here to see if any of those are good for you to do in your condition and oh yeah...

See if any of these love handle exercises will help you

Adrian Bryant | 07.11.08 - 1:08 pm

#21

Hi. I love your videos and exercises, but i had an epidural a year ago, and because of it i have chronic back pain. and alot of your exercises causes to much pressure/weight on my lower back and brings on the pain. are there any exercises that i can do to tighten the tummy/abs area and get rid of the love handles that won't cause the pain? also i do not want to really lose any/too much weight as i am only 115 lbs. and 24 yrs. old. Thanks for everything!

Heather | 07.10.08 - 10:05 pm

Alex,

Not true - it's a matter of personal preference

Adrian bryant | 07.10.08 - 10:46 am

Hey i like your exercise and everything but i have heard that i need to run before working on abs, is this true?

I've been doing 4 sets of 12 reps for the last 4 days....but I will take your advice and rest a day in between. Thanks very much for your help,,,I really appreciate it....

TRACEY | 04.16.08 - 5:47 pm

#14

TRACEY,

3 times a week with 1 day of rest between workouts is best - How many sets & reps have you been doing each day the last 4 days?

If you only do 1 set - then it's OK to do it everyday but... when you're doing 3-to-4 sets of 8-to-12 reps everyday - that's a little much and...

Since you are cardiac patient - make sure you ask your doctor if doing the stuff off my site (NowLoss.com) is OK for you to do and You can find more concentrated exercises for areas of your body here

adrian bryant | 04.16.08 - 5:39 pm

#13

Also....I am a cardiac patient and am limited by the cardio work-outs. I need to find concentrated exercises for areas of my body and haven't been able to find any. Your instruction is great and I was hoping you could help me out with this....Thanks so much for your time....

TRACEY | 04.16.08 - 4:50 pm

#12

Hi There,
I was just wondering if there is any harm in doing this exercise every day? I have done it for 4 days now and my abs feel so good.

TRACEY | 04.16.08 - 10:27 am

#11

dcpol,

Yes you do need to do cardio and proper nutrition to lose weight (fat) in your lower ab region and all over your body - this exercise will only help some.

Go to NowLoss.com for ways to lose fat

Adrian bryant | 04.01.08 - 6:27 am

#10

how does this exercise lower my bodyfat and specifically my lower abdomin bodyfat? Don't I need to do cardio and proper nutrition?

dcpol | 04.01.08 - 1:41 am

Lisa,

Go here first to see if any of these other ab exercises may work for you but...

From what you said - I'm thinking none of these will help you situation (but it wouldn't hurt to look and see anyway or...

You can do this flat tumy workout... just watch the last 3 minutes espcially to see how to work your ab muscles while standing up.

Adrian Bryant | 03.28.08 - 7:57 pm

My biggest problem with doing this or any exercise like it is that my back begins to hurt right away. Even in bed when I sleep I have to prop myself up on enough pillows that my back is at a 160-150 degree angle. So when I try lying flat on my back and lifting my legs, I feel nothing but the pain in my back. Is there anything I can do to to work my abs almost the same amount but in a less painful position for myself?

Lisa | 03.27.08 - 7:18 pm

Thanks,
I just quote some and link back to your site cos I think it is fair, both you and I will benefit from it.

tom,

It'll help get rid of flab 'just a little bit' by toning your lower abs but to truly get rid of lower ab flab...

Go on an easy flab burning program - Just go to NowLoss.com to see how to burn off overall body fat plus lower ab flab

Adrian Bryant | 03.24.08 - 6:52 pm

how will this get rid of flab? it will build up your legs and hip flexors but it wont burn fat....

tom | 03.24.08 - 6:27 pm

Joselynn...

*4 sets of 8-12 reps
*Take 1-2 minutes rest after each set
*Do it 2-3 times a week
