Exercises To Get Great Abs

We have listed a number of exercises to get great abs, shown you a training program based on your level, but now it is up to you. The type of exercise you do all depends on you and what you like to do. What you hate doing, paying membership fees, and whether or not to buy equipment are all things you need to consider if you want to get great abs.

If you choose something that you don’t like to do, you aren’t going to keep doing it for a long period
of time. For example if you don’t like half the exercises to get great abs, then you aren’t going to get up at 6AM and do those particular routines.  If you can’t find something you like to do, choose something you hate the least, or even work on your fitness by going for a walk.

Walking is great exercise, as it suits all levels of fitness. Anyone can start a walking program at
any time, it’s normally the intensity and duration that differs. Walking is also a social exercise, as it isn’t difficult to find a training partner to chat with while you exercise and a partner will also make time go by faster.

No matter what exercise you choose, you should start at a low level of intensity and build it up
over a period of weeks, which is essential to the longevity of your exercise program. If you start
off too hard, you could end up with an injury which will require time off to get over.

If you are really in bad shape, you should start off by walking for 10 minutes each day. Then,
increase it by 5 minutes every 2 weeks. To make things more interesting, you should try walking
a different course every few days. You can also roster a different friend to walk with you each
day of the week.

If walking isn’t your idea of a fitness program to reduce those layers covering your abs then how about golf or tennis.  Both are good social activities and you can share the experience with others.
Tennis is better for fitness due to the high intensity and running around but if you haven’t exercised in a long time then golf may be the best activity for you.

What I am trying to suggest here is do something you like and build on that. For me I hate starting things. I think about it for a week then talk myself out of it. What I found that works for me is to create inertia, build momentum. I know I won’t get right into any exercise at full speed so I build momentum by taking it slowly. First I think about the abs routine I want to do (let’s use the example of sit-ups). The next day I do ONE sit-up (don’t laugh). The day after that I do TWO sit-ups, and so on and so on …… By day 21 I am only doing 21 sit-ups but you know what I have done is created
momentum like a snow ball rolling down a hill. The number of sit-ups is getting bigger and I have taken it easy and not made myself hate it. What has happened is that I have created a habit in 21 days. Some psychologists suggest that it takes 21 days to break a habit, well I have taken 21 days to create one. Sit-ups is now so ingrained in my subconscious that I would miss it if I didn’t do it.

So start thinking about one of the exercises to get great abs and tomorrow …. do ONE repetition. Good Luck !!!
