ABDOMINAL ROUTINES

SHAWN'S ABDOMINALS # 5

Here's the rest ab workout that I posted the other week, where I mentioned that it was only a third. Warning! This will definitely work your abs if you do the entire thing. Or, you can break it down and do the part that you feel you want to do. Shawn

Intermediate:

--Reverse crunch: 20 reps
--"L" Hip raises: 10 reps Lying down, legs straight up in the air, 90 degrees to the ground. Use the abs to lift your hips up off the ground.
--Inboard/Outboard leg raises: 10 reps to each Start off lying on the ground legs 6" above the ground. Pull your legs up and then as they are coming down spread your legs apart and then pull them together at the bottom. 10 reps this way. When done with this, bring legs up while spreading them. Then your legs come together at the top, and lower them down. At the highest point, your legs should be 45 degrees to the ground.
--Leg raises: 20 reps

**Stretch** Lying flat on ground, place hands out over head and stretch out.

--Oblique crunches: 15 reps on left

--Oblique "V" crunches: 15 reps on right
--Cross legged crunch: 15 reps Lying on the ground, cross your right leg so the right ankle is to the left knee and if possible hold feet off the ground. Pull yourself up so the left elbow meets the right knee. Do not pull your legs to meet the elbow. After 15 on left, do same for right.
