the muscles of the lower stomach. The lower abdominal exercise tips contained in this article will help you gain a

In order to help you create a more effective lower abdominal workout, it is important that you have a basic
understanding of the muscles that make up the lower abdominal area. There are two muscles that make up the lower
abdominals, the bottom part of the Rectus Abdominis and the Transverse Abdominis.
The Rectus
Abdominis runs vertically and is responsible for pulling the front of the pelvis and hips
up towards the belly button. This is the muscle that most people refer to as their "upper" and "lower"
abs.

The Transverse
Abdominis runs horizontally underneath the Rectus Abdominis and is responsible for
pulling the belly button inward (towards the spine).

Together, these muscles work in conjunction to help stabilize your upper body and spine. As you can see from the
illustrations, the muscles of the lower abdomen are part of a complex system of core stabilizer muscles.

In order to properly target your lower abs, you will need to pay close attention to how you are performing each
exercise.
"It's important to note that when performed
incorrectly, even the very best lower abdominal exercise will result in the use of additional muscle groups
such as the hip flexors and lower back muscles."
The incorporation of these other muscle groups will
not help the development of your lower abdominals.
Listed below are a few lower abdominal exercise tips to help you get the most from your workouts:
- Do not attempt to perform any lower abdominal exercise that is too difficult for you to perform!
Everybody has to start somewhere and beginning with exercises that you can't perform with strict form is a
sure-fire way to cause an unwanted injury.
- Perform lower abdominal exercises in a slow and controlled manner. Always pay close attention to your form
when training your lower abdominals. This will help to ensure that you are properly isolating your lower
abdominal muscles.
- You should feel your lower abdominal muscles working more than any other muscles in your body. This means
that you should not feel the muscles of your hips, back or legs while performing
your lower abdominal exercises.
When I work with clients who desire chiseled sixpack abs, the first question that typically comes up is "What is
the best exercise for lower abs muscles?"
The Best Lower
Abdominal Exercises
-
Reverse Crunch
-
V-Ups
-
Bicycle Crunch
These are the top three exercises that I recommend to my clients for lower
abdominal toning and strengthening. Stick to these basic movements and concentrate on performing each exercise with
strict form. Make sure to pay close attention to your diet and incorporate regular cardiovascular exercise
into your fitness routine.
As you progress in your lower abdominal training, your muscles will strengthen. Once this happens, make sure to
add in a more advanced lower abdominal exercise or two. Soon your confidence will increase, and you'll finally
begin to see those lower abdominal muscles!
