Interval Training Workout For Your Midsection Will it Work?

Are you in an exercise rut for your stomach? Do you want to kick your fitness level up a notch and increase your endurance? Would you like to add more intensity to you r Abs workout? Interval training is a good way to achieve all of these goals in a safe and systematic approach.

Interval training is simply a matter of alternating high intensity exercise with low intensity exercises. It allows you to get the benefits of the high intensity work while giving the body some rest time in between without stopping. It allows you to extend a workout time period and build endurance gradually.

An example is if you are a runner you would do sprints followed by a slower pace run or jog followed by a faster run again. The same concept can be applied to your abs.

Because interval training burns a lot of calories and provides high-quality muscle work, it may help you save time. If your goal is to burn more calories and tone your midsection, and you are short on time, then interval training does more, faster. Just remember keep your form in check while moving quickly through the exercises.

There are a lot of ways to add intervals to your  Abs workout. If you are already have been training for a while try speeding up every other exercise.  Or try completing a whole circuit of movements in a shorter time intervals.

Example:

Bicycles

Crunches-fast

Ankle touches

Double knee crunches-faster

Bicycles

Then repeat.

These are just a few ways  to kick start your metabolism and help you train your abs.

Good luck and remember to check with your doctor before starting this or any other exercise program
