Stomach Flattening Exercises to Do at Home

So, you want to flatten your stomach but don’t have time or money to go to a gym? Don’t worry. In my of thinking, gyms are not necessary to get the body you want, they are more like places for social gathering. If you’re serious about your goals you can flatten tour stomach at home.

Let’s begin by stating that besides exercising, there are 2 factors that directly influence the size and shape of your stomach. I’m talking about cardio and nutrition. Stomach exercises will tighten your muscles making your stomach look flatter, but if you want to lose weight and let the muscles show, you’ll have to pay attention to both factors.

Ok, with that out of the way, I’m going to leave you with some simple stomach flattening exercises you can do at home starting today:

1. The plank. This is my favourite exercise. After your session of this exercise you’ll notice a flatter stomach, but it’s only repetition after repetition that it will stay that way.

-Lie on the floor on your stomach.

-Put yourself in a push-up-like position with your body resting on your toes and elbows. Keep your whole body straight like a plank.

- Keep the position for a minute or 30 seconds if that’s too much. Repeat 3 times.

2. The side crunch. This stomach exercise will work your oblique muscles, giving you a better mobility and shaping of your stomach area.

-Lie on the floor facing the sky. Put your both legs turned to one side.

-Crunch, do a crunch but keeping the torsion on the side. You’ll feel those muscles work!

- Repeat 20 times, and then switch sides. This is a series, repeat for 3 series.

3. Tucking-in. This is a forgotten exercise that has made my abs feel like metal. You have to do this everyday – I do it when I wake up.

- Breathe deeply.

- Exhale slowly the air until there’s no air in your lungs while at the same time try to bring your belly-button to your spine.

- Keep the tension for some seconds. You’ll feel also a exercise pain on the sides, that’s perfectly normal.

-Repeat 10 times.

So, you see, this is a simple stomach flattening workout. You have to take it slow and with patience. These exercises are perfect to start. They might not give you a six pack right away, but will strengthen your muscles enough to keep your stomach tight always.
