by Jose Loni Is it possible to get six pack abs by doing lower ab exercises? The answer is no. Doing lower ab exercises will not get you six pack abs. To get well-defined abs, we need to focus on increasing our metabolism through our diet and increasing our exercise program. Doing lower ab exercises can strengthen the lower abdominal, hip and back muscles, thus preventing injuries, but exercises focusing on that one area alone cannot tone and expose those abs. Training the problem area directly will not burn the fat found in that area either. What we need to do is train the whole body so that excess...

by Jose Loni The benefits versus consequences of exercise videos is an interesting topic. Exercise videos have been around for a while. For some, exercise videos are convenient, a lower cost alternative to getting fit, and a way for the shy ones to start a lifestyle change.

by Jose Loni People concentrate their ab workout exercises by anatomy. Exercises are differentiated by the area that needs the most work and in most cases, it’s our stomach. Instead of being so specific and focusing just on the stomach, we should focus on our overall metabolism and do activities like multi-joint activities and interval training. In doing so, our body will streamline itself to get fit and show those rock hard abs. A lot of ab machines and exercises are out there claiming they can solve your flab problem. However, because they work solely the ab area, you don’t see any...

by Jose Loni Are doing lower ab workouts the answer? Should we really be targeting something so specific when we train with the objective of getting ripped abs? The answer is, “no”. Ripped abs are not brought about by isolation exercises as a lot of people wrongly believe. Ripped abs are revealed when the body becomes lean and loses its excess fat. Ab machines and ab exercises promise you rock hard abs in 8-12 repetitions. Other variations of the same products claim to help you flatten your tummy in no time at all.
