　　How to build 8-pack abs

　　1. Frequency

　　Work out your abs every other day. In terms of quantity, although many people do hundreds of sit-ups at one time, I suggest that you pick 2 to 4 exercises that are most effective for you, and only do three sets of 30 to 50 times each, and each set should reach complete failure.

　　2. Weight

　　The more weight you use when training your abdominal muscles, the more likely it is that your movements will be irregular, and it will also make your waist thicker. The idea that adding weight will burn more fat is wrong. Therefore, it is recommended that you use tension and control instead of weight-bearing, and use your mind and external weight to tighten and stimulate the abdominal muscles.

　　3. Correct the situation

　　When doing abdominal exercises, keep your abs tense throughout the entire set and don't let them relax, either at the beginning or at the end of the movement. Always reach complete failure, every set should be done to complete failure, don't count the reps, keep doing it until you can no longer contract your abdominal muscles. It doesn't have to be completely straight. When practicing abdominal muscles, don't arch your back but keep your chest slightly inward. To focus the tension on the abdomen. The straighter the upper body is stretched, the more force the buttocks participate in, which not only reduces the stress on the abdominal muscles, but also increases the risk of straining the lower back.

　　4. Hanging leg raise

　　When doing this action, you should first pay attention to avoid swaying, tighten your body, and control the speed of the action. To stimulate the intercostal muscles, rotate the knees from side to side, which also works the obliques. The key to a correct leg raise is to extend your hips slightly forward. The speed of movement will vary from person to person, but make sure you lower your legs slowly. to prevent swaying.

　　Remember: your goal is to build abs. Instead of lifting your legs any way you can. If you find it difficult to do this with your legs fully straightened, you can do it with your knees bent. When your abdominal muscles become stronger, gradually straighten your legs.

　　5. Sitting and raising legs

　　This action can better stimulate the lower abdominal muscles. Sit on the edge of the bench, stretch your legs forward and downward, lean back about 10 degrees, and grab the edge of the bench to maintain balance. Without bending your knees, lift your legs upward. Until your toes are parallel to your eyes, then control. Control and tension are crucial throughout the movement, and even the slightest negligence can lead to lower back injury.

　　As your abdominal muscles become more and more fatigued, you can gradually bend your knees until complete exhaustion. Many people like to lie flat on a bench to do this action, which will cause the buttocks and abdomen to reduce the arc tension of the abdomen, focusing more tension on the buttocks rather than the lower part of the abdominal muscles.
