5 Effective Exercises That Get You a Flat Stomach

Dreaming of a flat stomach? It’s not just for models in magazines. When you get into a healthy fitness routine, you can get the strong, sculpted body you want. The FizzUp trainer gives you five effective exercises that get you a flat stomach.

DOING ABS EXERCISES EVERY DAY WON’T GET YOU A FLAT STOMACH

Do you do crunches every day, but don’t see any results? That’s totally normal! Having a variety of abs exercises is key in order to work all the muscles in your abdominal wall. Doing rep after rep of traditional crunches won’t get you a flat stomach because they only strengthen your rectus abdominis and outer abs, which can instead make you look like you have an even bigger belly. If you don’t make sure to do them correctly, they can even push down your viscera and put significant pressure on your pelvic floor. In fact, crunches can have severe consequences for this muscle. Strengthening the other muscles in your abdominal wall, such as the transverse abdominis with dynamic or core-strengthening exercises, is important.

This means that you can never stagnate. Activate the Six-Pack Add-on* to actively strengthen your stomach. Take it to the next level with the Flat Stomach Focus* at the end of your workout or on your rest days. You’ll target the deep muscles to get a flat stomach in as early as six weeks.

Mountain climbers help you get a flat stomach by working the deep muscles in your abs, especially your transverse abdominis and obliques. They’re waiting for you in your FizzUp PRO program.
