As I was saying in the first “Super Fast Abs”, you can work deep into the abdominals in a short period of time. In this YouTube clip my cat, “Mr. Chi” joins me as I explain that besides looking good, firm abdominals will help support your spine so you’ll be less likely to experience low back pain. In this exercise I target your waist and abdominals. Begin on your back with your hands behind your head. Bring your knees up so they are over your hips. Keep your back flat and bring your left elbow towards your right knee and repeat the abdominal crunch 4 times. Then do the same thing on the other side. Then do a set of 2 to the right and 2 to the left for to sets. Then lift your knees and chest together in the center for a slow set of 8 crunches. End with 8 pulses of the upper body. Repeat the sequence one more time. Feel the burn!! ~Sara Holliday MFT, CPT, HHP
