Six Pack ABS

If you admire all those 6 pack abs, just remember that nothing is fair or equal. Men and boys have it much easier when it comes to six packs. Females have an extra fat layer that males don’t, so men and boys don’t have to work as hard as women and girls to develop packed ab muscles . Yale University researchers found that teen girls smile more than teen boys, according to ‘Prevention Magazine.’ With all the extra ab and face muscle work, girls should be the grumpier ones. Grrrrrrr.

Russian Twists:• Start in seated position with knees bent and feet on the ground.• Lean back at a 45 degree angle• Rotate your upper body as far as you can from side to side, keeping your hips and legs stationary.• Keep you hands – or a medicine ball if you’re more advanced – at shoulder height and arms length as you rotate them• Do 4 sets of 20 twists with a 30 second rest between each set.

abs are a real problem area for me...i already do crunches, but are there any special foods i can eat (or really anything other than exercising) that promotes great looking abs??
