To get your body functioning properly you should start with a few minutes of aerobic exercise such as swimming, jogging, or cycling. You can start with 10 minutes and gradually increase the time; the goal is to be able to extend the duration to 45 minutes in order to burn body fat.

Abs Routine 1

• Upper abs: Lie on your back on the floor on a thin mat, bend your arms so that your palms touch your neck. Bend your knees to support the soles of the feet on the ground. Lift the top of your body concentrating your strength in the abdomen.
• Abdominal side : In the same position as the previous exercise, stretch your right arm and try to touch your left knee as you raise the body. After some repetitions are done, switch to do the same with your left arm.
• Lower abdominals: Keep lying on the floor but this time raise your feet so they are parallel to the ground. Stretch your legs and bend them back without touching the ground.

Abs Routine 2

• Upper abdominal: The position is the same as the routine 1, only this time you will raise your legs perpendicular to the floor until you form with your body at an angle of 90 °. Raise your upper body as in the previous routine.
• Abdominal side: Hold the pose of the previous exercise but this time stretch your right arm and tries to touch your left foot to raise the body. Repeat the exercise with the other arm.
• Lower abdominals: Preserving the position drop your arms to both sides of the body. Raise your hips against ground force concentrating on your abs. Walk up and down without touching the ground until you finish the series.

Stretching Should Be Done at the End of All Routines

After completing the exercises to lose stomach fat it is important to stretch to prevent muscle injuries.
