Many
people consider that the lower abs are the most difficult abdominal muscle
to define. Developing a lean hard-ripped midsection requires great effort
and patience, especially when it comes to lose those last few pounds. The
lower abs can be the most stubborn and exercise-resistant area regarding the
loss of body fat. Unfortunately, some individuals are so obsessed with this
spot that do not hesitate to use extremely hazardous diet drugs or
liposuction. Others use the latest abs devices or do countless sit-ups, all
to no avail. Don’t be kidding yourself! The only proved method of get rid of
the adipose tissue is the proper combination of a healthy diet, aerobics, a
comprehensive abdominal training and weight training.
Before we proceed to the At Home training routine that's main target would
be the development of the lower abs, lets clear some thoughts. First of all
you have to realize that there is no such thing as ‘spot reduction’. In
simple words you can’t isolate where you are going to reduce body fat. When
you burn fat, you will draw it from all areas of the body, including your
feet, neck and hands!, it won't just come off your stomach!! the first place
you tend to hold it will be the last place it comes off. When it comes to
these ‘stubborn’ spots genetics play a crucial role. Both sexes have
different genetic patterns of fat storage. In women, the stubborn areas tend
to be the hips, thighs and buttocks. In men it’s usually the lower abs.
These genetic traits cannot be altered or changed through diet or training
alone. They are unchangeable. You should understand that the shape of your
abs is entirely genetic. If you do not have great abs naturally, a million
of crunches won’t build a hard six-pack mid-section. The number of rows of
abdominal muscles you possess (or packs) is also entirely a matter of
genetics. Most people have three rows = 6 Pack, but some have four rows = 8
Pack. Whatever the number of abs God gave you is what you have. You cannot
do anything about it.
One of the most common quotes I’ve heard from people in my health club over
the years is “I’ve had some success toning my abdominal area but as hard as
I try I just can’t seem to get the lower part to show, why can’t I seem to
get this area like everything else?!” Well the answer usually is one of two
things: A) they may not be doing enough cardio and not dieting properly or
B) they may not have the right routine to really target this elusive area.
So, that’s what we will discuss today, a great lower ab routine to carve out
those lower abs...and you can do it at home!


Keep in mind, this routine alone won’t simply give you great lower abs.
Proper diet and a steady amount of cardio are equally important to really
sculpting this area. However this routine complimented by cardio on an empty
stomach 1st thing in the morning and proper nutrition may just be the answer
to the elusive challenge of finishing off a perfect six pack.
