Special Diets - Exercise to flatten the abs


Expert: Tanya Zilberter, PhD - 9/16/2007

Question

what is the best exercise to flatten the abs

Answer
Hello Sherryl,

Two highly recommended ab exercises are crunches and leg lifts on the stability ball. These exercises work the most muscle fibers and get the best results the fastest. The stability ball causes you to activate virtually every muscle in the upper and lowers abs. The whole midsection core has to work to pull of the crunches and leg lifts. Read more about it:
