Well here we are - another of my Ab Attack session. I’m now calling this a session because if you do all the exercises that are now available back to back with a minute rest between each exercise you will have a mini tummy workout.

Hopefully you are all improving and can now manage the target repartitions in one set for each exercise.

If you can, then do each exercise once as described in each section with a minute rest maximum in between each exercise and then just continue the circuit again.

Remember in time and by following PhysicaLee Fit on a regular basis you will build up a mini portfolio of exercises that you can do pretty much anytime, anywhere and anyplace with no real need for a gym!

Now don’t forget the diet plays just as big a part with the training regime to reach your goals and achieve that all important lifestyle change.

The Plank

1

Start by placing your elbows directly below the line of your shoulders but about 2 inches outside the shoulder. Clasp your hands together and make a triangle position between your hands, elbows and shoulders. This will give you more support.

2

Now extend one leg at a time away from you, both feet touching the floor with the toes pulled under. Knees are off the floor!

Hold this Plank position for a count of 10 seconds

When you can quite happily hold this position without shaking and keeping the correct posture for 1 minute then you are ready to progress.

Progression

Keeping the right alignment and posture with the Plank position you can now raise one foot off the floor keeping a straight leg.

The raised leg only needs to be as high as the straight back.

Hold one leg out for 20 seconds , slowly lower the leg back to its original position and straight away raise the opposite leg holding for another 20 seconds.

All the time keeping the back straight and flat parallel to the floor. No twisting!

Remember there is no need to perform hundreds of the same exercise make sure you vary each stomach exercise for a full torso workout.

This exercise can be for any fitness level and as you improve you can extend the time.

Just remember a healthy body means a longer happier healthier life.
