Navy Seals Ab Workout

This is a great ab workout I found on the internet and thought I would share it on here. First id like to say that just doing this exercise wont get you a six pack. Not that its not a good exercise but to get a good pack you need to burn off all the fat that lies on top of them. Eating right, running or biking is a great way to burn unneeded fat. This isn't a speed workout, take it slowly to get the best results, the whole workout should take about 5-10 minutes. Also, this is very important, just because you've been working out does not mean you can eat that donut or those cookies, eat healthy!

Step 1 Preparing

Before any workout you should make sure you're well hydrated and have et. Working out on an empty  stomach or while dehydrated is unhealthy and does you no good. However don't over eat and drink to much before, just a small snack and about 8oz of water depending on your workout.

It's also very important to do some stretches before you work out, stretching loosens your muscles so you don't pull anything while exercising.

How long did it take you to see results?

[Emsaid]

it took a couple days to feel results but maybe a week or so to see results

ericocean 's right..
the hands behind the neck causes a lot of strain..i used to do it initially, then changed the position with my fingertips just touching (mostly not) my sideburns..

oh and please do mention the lower back strengthening exercises to be done with the ab routine, now we dont want any over enthusiastic youngster having slipped discs right.

like i said before this is just an ab work out, i dont just do this one every day

Nice variation of abs exercises. Add the plank and side plank to it for 1 to 2 minutes and you have a pretty complete set. One word of caution though: it is best not to put you hands behind your head when training abs, because of the tendency to pull your head and put strain on your neck. Better rest your fingertips on your temples and visualize an imaginary elastic band between your shoulders and your navel (belly button), which shortens and lengthens as you do your crunches So don't try to bring your head up, but rather the shoulders.
Be proud of that 6pack as a representation of a healthy life style!

Thanks! I usually do other exercises as well and just wanted to show this one. Haven't had a problem with my neck (yet!) but I think I should change that part of the exercise for other peoples sake.

Those excersises are pretty good, but you should try v ups, hollow holds, and arch holds, and hollow and arch rocks. Whenever you do excersise on your stomach or chest, workout you back equally.
