Question

I have been working out every day cardio first, then weights!  I have been doing 30 sit-ups a day, but it kills my ribs, stomach, & back afterwards. 😁

Is there any other Abb workout that I can do besides sit ups?

Answer

You burn more calories of you do weights first and cardio last and there are TONs of an exercises that are more effective- leg raises, planks, bicycles, crunches, etc- don't do any "weighted" exercises- body weight is sufficient. Check out body building .com

Answer

Look up the 300 ab challenge, it gives you variations of ab workouts. Also, my friend has a blog sweet and sessy and she has a deck of cards ab workout on there. Look on Pinterest and there are even more!

Answer

I love the exercise ball core workouts. Lay flat on the floor with the ball over your head. Raise your legs and arms at the same time (keeping them straight and not bending at the knees). Transfer the ball from your hands to your feet. Then keeping straight go back to laying position. Then do the same and transfer the ball back to your hands and return to flat. Start slow with these. And add 1 per day. Or use the ball to sit on and do sit ups that way. I was a size 12-14 and had a very large belly, now I'm a 6, and my belly is flat. By the end of this year I may have a 6 pack! I'm doing it slow and healthy, and run too. I've finished a 1/2 marathon and am training for a full.

Answer

Can you hold yourself in Plank?
Plank and side plank positions are great for your entire core.

Answer

Try the abs on the ball. That could help. Also try leg raises as you hang from a pull up bar. That works your lower abs.
