Sample Exercise Variations

There are many, many variations of lower abs exercises. One of them involves moving you’re your legs straight up to a 90 degree angle. then, while applying pressure to the lower abs, move your both legs right above the ground.

While doing this lower abdominal routine you may want to [lace your hands under your buttocks after you lie down on the floor. Your legs should be lifted up so that they are straight up in the air as mentioned above.

As you lift up your legs you should pull in your abs so that your midsection is completely tense. A variation of this exercise involves lowering just one leg a few inches off the ground. As you do this, keep your hands behind your buttocks and lie down on your back.

When finished with a repetition, you then would lower your legs to the ground until they are just a few inches off the ground. This could lead into completing a few leg lifts in which you may hold your legs in the air for as long as possible-an average of 15 to 30 seconds each. Try to increase your leg lift strength up to 60 seconds per lift if you can.
