6 Exercises to Get a Flat Stomach

Gudrun Howell · November 20, 2023 ·

But there are no miracles, you have to have good will, consistency and make some sacrifices. Don’t worry, there’s no need to leave the house: we’ve got a great program for you to incorporate into your daily routine and it won’t last more than 6 minutes! If you follow it to the letter, this abdominal workout will help you strengthen your core muscles, improve your posture, and relieve back pain. Let’s go, let’s get out our mat and get motivated!

Let’s take a closer look at the 6 exercises that will help you Burn belly fat :

Exercise 1 – Reverse Sit-Ups

Position Sit-ups

When you want to work on your abs, there’s nothing like sit-ups! In the fitness world, this exercise is known for directly engaging the belly, abdominal and abdominal muscles. The must: no need for any equipment. Obviously, if you wish, to intensify your exercise, you can always include a few tools such as a resistance band or dumbbells.

  • Lie face down with your legs bent as if you wanted to perform a classic abdominal exercise.
  • Place your arms at your sides with your palms resting on the surface of the floor. Relax your shoulders and back, look upwards.
  • Bend your knees and bring them towards your chest. Perform this movement without lifting your back and without moving your pelvis too much. Contract your abdominal muscles as you do this.
  • Stay in this position for a second, then slowly return to the starting position.
  • Repeat for 1 minute.
  • Exercise 2 – Leg Lift

    This is another beneficial workout to work the lower part of the body. To have a flat stomach and sculpt your abs, this is the ideal exercise!

  • Lie on the floor with both legs in an upright position as if you were resting them on a wall.
  • Extend your arms to the sides and place your hands under your buttocks.
  • Slowly lower your right leg and bring it as close to the floor as possible, without touching it. Then lift it up again.
  • Do the same with your left leg.
  • Perform the exercise for 1 minute.
  • Exercise 3 – Abs, elbow-knee

    Abs, elbow-knee position

    Here, we go all out on strengthening the obliques! These muscles have a major impact on lateral trunk flexion and rotational movement. The benefits of this exercise are multiple: firming and toning the belly, improving posture, strengthening the spine, boosting physical endurance, preventing back pain, etc.

  • Lie on your stomach with your legs straight and your hands behind your head.
  • Lift your left leg and try to get your right elbow to touch your knee.
  • Return to the starting position and repeat with the other side.
  • Perform the exercise for 1 minute.
  • Exercise 4 – Bird-Dog Plank

    Never skip it, it’s a particularly good exercise in your routine: it promotes good body coordination and improves balance. In addition, it is quite complete since it solicits the lumbar, the gluteus, the abdominal strap and the hamstrings.

  • Get on your hands and knees.
  • Looking down, with your neck in a neutral position, extend your right leg back and your left arm forward.
  • Hold the position for a few seconds, then return to the starting position.
  • Repeat the movement with opposite legs and arms.
  • Perform the exercise for 1 minute.
  • Exercise 5 – Russian Medicine Ball Rotations

    The Medicine ball russian twist is a very popular fun exercise in fitness. By adopting it in your physical program, you will be able to greatly stimulate your abdominal muscles, especially the obliques and transverse abdominis.

  • Sit on the floor, lift your feet, and try to maintain balance in this position.
  • Extend your arms forward and turn them first in one direction, then the other, as you grasp the Russian medicine ball.
  • Repeat for 1 minute.
  • Exercise 6 – Cross Mountaineer

    Position of the Cross Mountaineer

    End of the sessione with the formidable and emblematic “Mountain climber”, a complete core exercise, but rather intense and demanding, since it works all the muscles of the body. Anything goes, cardio and abs! To tone the belly and burn calories, this is exactly what you need.

  • On your mat, lie on your stomach and lift your body with your arms.
  • Place your palms and toes on the floor.
  • Raise your right knee to your chest, then your left knee, as if you were climbing a mountain.
  • Repeat for 1 minute.
  • There you go! Admit that 6 minutes a day (or even a little more) isn’t that restrictive, is it? Give laziness a good kick and finally make a resolution to get started. Of course, we are counting on you to combine this physical training with a healthy and balanced diet. Try to skip foods that are too fatty and sugary, in favor of healthier and much more vitamin-packed recipes. Don’t forget to stay hydrated throughout the day by drinking plenty of water. Avoid stimulants and do your best to get a good night’s sleep by getting at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night.

    By adopting this physical training daily and giving yourself a healthier lifestyle, you will see that after a few weeks, you will end up getting the flat stomach you dreamed of.
