Lower abs: the HIIT workout
How to get a kpop idol bodyAyo guys! So if you're like me you struggle with the stubborn belly fat that always stays on your lower stomach, and it gets pretty annoying at times like when you stand up you feel perfectly fine but that moment you sit down you can feel your flabs forming. Although it's great for keeping warm in the winter, it's not so great for your health if it gets too big. So, to prevent that from happening we're going to need to work out and also keep a healthy diet, not only for the sake of looking good in a bikini but also for our health and to live a long life. So if you're ready for this workout let's go!
Quick note about belly fat: diet and exercise aren't the only things that effect your weight, if you're not sleeping enough or getting really stressed out that increases your cortical levels and when those levels stay high for too long it turns into fat, especially in the lower belly. So think about that next time you decide to procrastinate on an essay until the night before it's due!
Tips on the workout: When doing the lower ab exercises requiring you lay down on your back remember to make sure you're not arching your back and that your back is pressed against the ground. This mean that you shouldn't be able to easily slide your hand under your back. When you press your back to the ground it engages your lower abs more instead of when you arch your back and you're using your upper abs more.
The workout: This workout is 8 minutes long switching from lower ab exercises to cardio exercises so you can burn fat and tone your lower abs at the same time, it's 50 seconds on 10 seconds off. If this is your only workout for the day repeat this routine 2-4 times depending on your fitness level or check out my other HIIT workout that tones your thighs!
