Begin doing these 3 awesome flat-belly moves and stop doing old fashioned crunches. Take time to know the secret way to amazing abs!

There is no surprise that we all want a toned, flat stomach. But many woman are still relying on crunches to get it, if you are one of them, then you better listen. We want to make one thing clear: Crunching is not the most effective abs workout. Lou Schuler, co-author of The New Rules of Lifting for Abs, said: “Crunches work only the muscles on the front and sides of your abdomen, but it’s important to target all the muscles of the core to get more defined abs – including lower back, hips, and upper thigh.”

Schuler recommends a series of core stabilization exercises based on a training regimen re-created by his co-author and personal trainer Alwyn Cosgrove is an efficient way to lose belly fat and uncover amazing abs. According to Schuler, “Core exercise like the plank help train muscles to stabilize the spine and pelvis so you can avoid back pain and improve posture. They also burn more calories than crunches because they work more muscles.”

Re stabilize your abs exercise and trade crunches for these 3 super effective steps from The New Rules of Lifting for Abs and you’ll get that perfectly toned, flatter tummy in no time.

 Side Plank.

Why it works: This is the best Abs Exercise. It is more challenging than a traditional plank because you’re supporting your whole body weight on two points of contact instead of four points of contact. And as a result, you have to work your core harder at the same time to stay stabilized.

How to do it :

1. Lie on your left side with your elbow placed proportioned directly to your shoulder and legs properly stacked together. Place your right hand across your left shoulder or onto your right hip.
2. Lift your hips off the floor, brace your abs until you’re balancing on your forearm and feet so that your body forms a diagonal line. Try to hold for 30 – 45 seconds. Switch sides and repeat. If at first you can’t hold that long, stay up as long as you can manage and then repeat it until you are able to hold for at least 30 seconds.

For greater stabilization: Do the standard plank and the anti-rotation hold.

Walkout from Pushup Position

Why it works: It uses the full potential of your arms and legs strength, while incorporating resistance to power up your entire core. This abs exercise involves full body movement.

How to do it:

1. Position yourself in a pushup on the floor with your hands wider than your shoulder for approximately two inches.
2. Now try to walk forward with your hands and reach as far as possible, then walk back to your previous position. Do a minimum of 10-12 repetitions.

Make it harder: Before you walk with your hands out ad back, try to lift one leg to help put pressure on your muscles.

Alligator Drag

Why it works: This abs exercise mixes cardio, stability, and strength training that uses the entire body and burn additional calories by adding movement.

How to do it:

1. Find a wide area of floor that can allow you to move forward and backward by 10 to 20 yards. Grab anything that will help you slide over the floor smoothly. Can be towels or plastic bags, depends on the surface of the floor.
2. Position yourself in pushup with your feet on the towel or anything that suits you to slide.
3. Now, move forward or rather walk forward using your hands until you reach the least 10 yards. Rest and take a breath for at least 60 seconds and repeat the alligator walk back to where you began. That’s one full set. Do one more set.
