The good news is that working out and eliminating the extra belly fat will give you more energy, so you can spend more quality time playing with and caring for your new rugrat. Here are a few simple exercises to set your on your way toward baby belly freedom. As with any workout routine, be sure to consult a professional before beginning and always warm up properly to avoid injury.</font></p> <p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>Progressive Crunchless Crunch</strong><br> This stomach exercise works your abdominals as well as a crunch does, but without the strain to your neck and back. Begin by sitting in a chair, placing one hand above and below your belly button in order to feel the contraction of your abdominals. Take one big deep breath, so your midsection expands completely. Then let the breath out as you pull your belly in, imagining your belly button being pulled inward toward your spine. Finally, briefly contract your abs five times. Do a full set of repetitions of all three parts. You can also try this exercise lying on your back. Try both to see which one helps you feel the contractions of your abdominal muscles better.</font></p> <p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>Contractions</strong><br> This exercise starts off very much the same way as the last one, but involves quicker steps and more repetitions. Begin by sitting in the same position as in the progressive crunchless crunch, and taking the same deep breath. This time, instead of bringing your belly all the way back, exhale and bring it just about halfway. Then pull your belly button back toward your spine. Contract and hold for a count of one. Repeat from the half-exhalation point. Do the whole thing one hundred times.</font><br> </p> </td> </tr> </table> <table width="100%" height="20" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td height="20" align="center" valign="top"> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </font></td> </tr> </table></td> <td colspan="2" rowspan="2" align="left" valign="top"> <h2><strong><font color="#FF9900" size="3" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Abs Exercises Navigation</font></strong></h2> <p align="justify"><a href="Aquasize-To-A-Flatter-Stomach.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Aquasize to a flatter stomach</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="stomach-muscles.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Exercises for each stomach muscles</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Different-Exercises-for-Flat-Abs.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Different exercises for flat stomach</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="best-stomach-exercises.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Best stomach exercises for morning</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="corkscrew-exercises-1.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Free stomach exercises</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Post-Partum-Tummy-Routine.php"><font color="#B9B9B9" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Simple Post partum tummy routine</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Stomach_exercise_resources.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Stomach exercises to reduce your tummy</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Stomach-Exercise-All-Stars.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Stomach exercises - All stars</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Stomach-Exercises-to-Eliminate-Belly-Fat.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Stomach exercises to eliminate belly fat</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Target-Your-Stomach-With-Yoga.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Targetting stomach with yoga</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="When-to-do-Stomach-Exercises.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">When to do stomach exercises</font></a></p> <p><strong><font color="#666666" size="2" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Advertisements<br> </font></strong><strong><font size="2" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </font></strong></p> <h2><strong><font color="#FF9900" size="3" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Easy Abs Workouts Navigation</font></strong></h2> <p align="justify"><a href="loose-your-belly.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Loosen up your belly abs first</font></a> </p> <p align="justify"><a href="Lower-Abs-Exercises.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Lower abs exercises</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="transverseabdominal.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Transverse abdominal exercises</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Strong-Stomach-Workout.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Strong stomach abs workouts</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Stomach-Exercises-to-Work-off-Those-Love-Handles.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Stomach exercises- Work off the love handles</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Stomach-Exercises-For-A-Flatter-Tummy.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Stomach exercises for a flat tummy</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Shrink-Your-Tummy.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Shrink your tummy next</font> </a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Review-of-stomach-exercises.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Review your stomach exercises</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Resistance-Bands-for-Stomach-Exercises.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Resistance bands for stomach</font></a></p> <p align="justify"><a href="Poor-Stomach-Exercise-Habits.php"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#B9B9B9">Poor stomach exercise habits</font></a></p> <p><font color="#FF9900" size="3" face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>News Bits on Abs Exercise</strong></font></p> <p> <style> .rsslinks {color: #FF9900;

Instead of making a few stops as you exhale a deep breath, however, this exercise consists of just one move. To start, either lie or on your stomach or kneel. You might want to try both ways and see which helps you feel the exercise better. Relax your body as much as possible, then try to use only the lower abdominals to move your belly button toward your spine. Hold for ten seconds. If holding for ten seconds feels easy, hold for a longer period. The goal is to hold the contraction until you either cannot feel it, or you feel other muscles working harder than the transverse abdominus.
