Fab lower abs: banish that stomach pooch with this tummy tightener. (Buff).(Brief Article)
THE MOVE TO MASTER:
REVERSE CURL
Lie flat on your back with your hands behind your head, elbows out to the sides. Raise your legs so your thighs are upright and calves are extended straight out (1). Tilt your pelvis slightly to flatten your back against the floor. In a slow, controlled manner (using a one, two, three count), raise your hips toward your rib cage so that your knees drop in the direction of your forehead (2). Hold for one count, then slowly lower yourself. Be sure to use your muscles rather than momentum, lifting yourself with your lower abs and keeping the rest of your body still. Do three sets of 15 reps every other day.
