Stop wasting your time doing exercises that only work one part of your belly. If you want to get a six-pack, you need to work out and challenge your entire core.
[post_ads]The answers come from Kristina Marcussen, a neuromuscular physical therapist who specializes in working with athletes. She has an easy tip. "If you want to work your core, put your hands on the floor." Do planks, elbow planks, side-planks, push-ups and so on!
The main important thing is that one or both feet or hands remains in constant contact with the ground. These exercises are the ones known as bodyweight moved that "activate more muscles and engage more muscle fibers."
The greatest thing is that these exercises also work the muscles that you use in everyday life. Thus, this work out "helps prevent injury." She recommends doing these hands-on-the-ground core exercises at least three times a week.
