Lie on the ground face down, with palms and forearms placed on ground. Keep your legs straight while on ground and your toes tucked under. Slowly lift your body up with your palms, fore arms and toes supporting you. Hold the position and count to 30 for starters but you can go up to 90. Return body to ground.
Stomach flab or bulginess is excess body fat that does not make you look attractive. Therefore, to get a flat tummy you need to reduce your body fat percentage. You can do that by including fat burning exercises in your fitness programme. According to our guest fitness writer, MONICA MWANGUPILI, here is a workout to help you achieve a flat tummy.
Remember that what you eat also plays a role in achieving a flat tummy, but that is a topic for another day.
Doing a hundred sit ups won’t give you a flat tummy. It will make you sore, instead.
Warm up
Walk or jog on the spot for 2 minutes
1. Jump squat
Stand with feet apart, knees slightly bent and hands lightly clasped at the back of your head. Jump up; do not move the hands from the back of your head (please do not strain the neck either). Repeat 10 to 15 times.
