In the World we live in, with the advantages of the Internet and the whole technology, we have plenty of stomach exercises to learn and look at. This is both good and bad. Good because of the variety of ab exercises we can find, but is bad because it is harder to sort out the effective from the useless ab exercises. In this article we offer you the top ab exercises as suggested by many fitness experts. If you feel overwhelmed by the quantity of stomach exercises out there, this little list of exercises provides the perfect starting point to a tight stomach. Before starting it would be helpful to consult with a professional to avoid injuries.

Crunch less Crunch

The traditional crunches work the rectus abdominus (the center section of our abdominal area) but do nothing for the equally important transverse abdominal muscles. This exercise takes charge of these muscles without neck strain. It involves trying the belly button towards your spine, and while it may sound simple, it is hard because it involves muscles we are not accustomed to work.

1.    Lie on your stomach or kneel.

2.    Totally relax your body and start pulling your bellybutton towards your spine. Hold.

3.    Hold for ten seconds or until you don't feel the muscles, that is the goal here.

4.    If you want to increase the difficulty of this abs exercise, hold for more seconds.

5.    Let the contraction out.

Hip Lift

1.    Lie on your back with your arms at the sides and palms facing the sky.

2.    Raise your legs at a 90 degree angle while keeping your knees as straight as possible.

3.    Contract your abs muscles and lift your hip off the ground. Hold for 2 seconds.

4.    Slowly lower your hips back to the floor.

Long Arm Crunch

1.    Lay on you back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor.

2.    Straighten your arms, as you are reaching something over your head.

3.    Contracting your abs, raise your arms, shoulders and head off the floor forming a 30 degree angle. Hold.

4.    Slowly bring your body back to the starting position. Repeat for a set.

Other great exercises on the list are the Bicycle maneuver, the vertical leg crunch, twists and Pilates exercises. Most of Pilates exercises if not all of them, work your abdominal area. Whatever you choose start now, because it is a long but rewarding journey.
