Here they are, Ab workouts! i know, i know don’t feel up to working out? Well these moves will really show results. So get movin’ and get the ab’s you’ve always wanted.

Standing Lower-Ab Curl

(works your lower rectus abdominis) Stand with your back to a wall, feet about a foot away from it, knees soft. Keeping feet in place, lean against the wall and rest hands on it by your sides. Contract your abs and bend and lift right knee as you raise shoulders a few inches off the wall and curl down toward your knee.

Immediately repeat with left knee, keeping your shoulders lifted off the wall the entire time.

Army Sit-Up

(works your upper rectus ab-dominis) Lie down, knees bent, feet together and anchored under an ottoman or a couch; loop a towel around the back of your neck and hold each end.

Contract abs and lift shoulders, then your back, curling all the way up. Too strenuous? Just lift shoulder blades off the floor. Lower almost to floor and repeat.

Ball Reach

(works your lower rectus abdominis) Lie back, holding a ball (any kind will do) in both hands, arms raised toward the ceiling, legs extended, feet flexed.

Contract abs and butt and lift shoulder blades a few inches off the floor. Aim to lift the ball straight up toward the ceiling rather than forward. Lower until shoulders are about an inch from the floor and repeat.

Knee Lift

(works your lower rectus abdominis) Sit on the edge of a chair, knees bent, feet flat on the floor; hold on to sides of chair. Tighten abs, lean back slightly and lift feet several inches (keeping knees bent).

Pull knees in toward chest and crunch upper body forward. Lower feet almost to floor and repeat.

Modified Jackknife

(works your obliques) Lie on your left side, left leg extended, left knee soft, right knee bent, foot on the floor behind left knee. Extend left arm on floor, bend right elbow and place hand behind head.

Crunch up to the side, lifting right shoulder toward right hip. Lower almost to starting position and repeat. Complete both sets; switch sides and repeat.

Side-to-Side Crunch

(works your upper rectus abdominis and obliques) Lie back, knees bent 90 degrees, feet 2 feet apart; place right hand on stomach and rest left arm by sidLift shoulders several inches off the floor and reach left hand toward right knee.

Lower almost to start and repeat on opposite side, placing left hand on stomach and reaching right hand toward left knee (that’s one rep).

How to deal with a break-up

After a break up you’re self-esteem can take a major blow and you feel as if things will never be okay. When a break-up is new, you have to learn how to deal with it. Cry if you have to, it’s alright. Allow yourself to grieve, they say time heals all. If you and your partner are talking about geting back together, don’t try and rush things; use the time and space you both have to think things over. One thing you can do that may make you feel better is to talk to people close to you or share your feeling with someone. You will feel much better if you talk about your feelings with people that are close to you and it feels good to know that someone is always there for you even if you feel all alone right now.

Dealing with a break-up also includes loving yourself more, and not blaming yourself for the ending of the relationship. Always remind yourself of all of the good qualities you have. Try to deal with this situation in the most possitive way you can, thinking positive will bring positive things into your life. Now is the time to do the things you enjoy, go to the gym, hangout with friends, whatever it may be, you’ll now have the time to do it. You may rediscover yourself and look at this in a whole new perspective.

goodluck!

Hello, my name is Lauren and I am the owner of candykissez.tk a myspace layout and graphics website.
I decided that it would be a great idea to make a online magzine for teen girls with topics from boys to makeup to fashion tips!
I am doing this magzine on my own right now, so it may take a little while for me to get everything up and running, but I do hope to add people on the writing team soon (allthough it will be purely vollunteer work) =]

Please leave comments, support and advice if you wish.

Thank you for stoping by, and i hope you’re looking forward to all of the exciting posts ahead.

xoxoxo
