www.orderchews.com On this health segment of Lifetime’s “The Balancing Act”, Dr. David Friedman demonstrates exercises that will help you tone your abs… without doing sit-ups!
@X3AmychanX3 It … @X3AmychanX3 It won’t give you ab’s, it will flatten or “tone” your stomach. You need strong and toned ab’s first in order to get ab’s.
I’m not an expert but PE is my best subject – To start of you need to do it about 3-4 times a week, and maybe about 4-5 times a day for 30 – 40 seconds, then once your muscles adapt to it, you need to gradually increase it. Do it 4-5 times a week and add 5 seconds on to however long you were holding them for.
Tone just means tight if you didn’t know
@Chews4HealthInc … @Chews4HealthInc Heya! can you help me, if I do the Muscle Memory for 30 seconds every now and then during other sports, like running, badminton and stretches, will that be effective too??

They are called planks and they do in fact work great. Do side planks and stomach planks and start out most can do 30-60 seconds. When you get up to 5 minutes you can add weight to make it harder.
does this actually … does this actually make your stomach flat or does it only make you have abs? i am a girl and i don’t want abs :S i want a flat stomach. how many of these should i do a day and when? also, when will i have a completely FLAT STOMACH? please reply!
That’s pretty much … That’s pretty much planks. That’s not easy and I got lazy with sticking with it (lost 80+ pounds in a year). All I have to do is tone. Going to work on that starting now
I used the Wii Fit for it and it was more challenging because you have to stay within a yellow area for balance and steadily in the middle (center of balance). Very fun but difficult.

if it doesnt hurt it means it’s not actually working …..
you’re either not doing it properly or hard enough
or you’ve been doing them for a long time and are used to it.
try holding the position longer or doing it more accurately
how long have you been doing this for? does it REALLY work?
