Training your upper abs can be very easy if you know the
correct exercises for it.
But before I touch on the best
upper ab workout, it’s good to know what the 2 common mistakes
are done by people when working on upper abs.
Common mistake 1 –
Working on wrong muscles When you want to work on your upper abs, you
need do abs exercises that target only on your upper abdominal
and not other area. Most of us thought that by doing sit up, it
will build your six pack abs. But the real fact is that sit up
doesn’t even work on your abdominal muscles, it only works on
your hip flexor muscle.
Common mistake 2 –
Doing the abs exercises too
fast Training
your upper abs requires slow contraction of your
abdominal muscles. So when you do abs exercises too fast,
it defeats the purpose of contraction and may even cause
unnecessarily injury.
So before you do any upper abs
exercise, do try to avoid these 2 common mistakes.
Below are 3 of the best upper ab workout that
concentrates on your upper abs
#1 Upper Ab Workout -
Machine Cable Crunches
This is one of the best upper ab
workouts that help you to attain your six pack abs. However you
will need a cable machine for you to get started. The best part
of this abs exercise is that it allows you to increase the
weight incrementally.
Starting
position First, get
a cable rope and attach it to a universal cable machine. Adjust
a light weight to the machine. Probably one or two stack for a
start. Then hold the cable rope with both hands firmly and
kneel about 3 feet away from the cable machine. The cable
position should be in front of your forehead with both hands
holding it. Your back should be straight and flat while
tightening your torso. Inhale.
The
action Exhale
gradually and slowly crunch down your upper body by focusing
the contraction at your abs. Continue to curl your upper body
down until your elbow are about touch your both knees. Hold the
position and contract your abdominal for 2 seconds. Make sure
that you use your abs strength to curl your upper body instead
of your arm strength. You arms should remain in front of your
forehead.
Next, inhale and slowly curl
back to the starting position while keeping constant tension on
your abs muscle. This will be one repetition. Repeat 12 of this
repetition for one set of exercise. Constantly increase the
stack weight for every set.
Common mistake and
tips 1. it’s
important to focus on the contraction of your abs muscle when
doing this exercise.
2. When you stay in the
starting position, avoid hyper extending your lower back, keep
your abs tight so that your position will be in a 45 degree
angle from the ground.
