Training and exercise charts
Fitness experts Esther and Gemma Pineda, Pin Twins, reveal the keys to tightening the abdomen and achieving a flat stomach
Is it possible to wear a tablet in summer? If you start training now and follow the challenge #ApuntoconlasPin you are likely to get it. This week the fitness experts Esther and Gema Pineda invite us to dedicate a minimum of three weekly sessions (no less than 15 minutes) to working the abdomen. But in addition to exercising regularly, both insist that it is essential to follow a good nutrition, in which priority can be given to quality raw materials (vegetables, vegetables, fruits, meats, fish, legumes, eggs and whole grains), because if we do not nourish ourselves correctly we may not be able to harden the abdomen even by doing 1000 sit-ups a day, according to Esther and Gema Pineda. “Eating healthy and exercising is a combination of success if we are constant,” they clarify.
It is also important to strengthen the abdomen to maintain both day-to-day and when exercising a correct posture. With a good posture we will be able to avoid injuries and we will also make sports practice more effective. In this sense, the Pin Twins explain that the specific routines to work the abdomen must be complemented with ‘full body’ exercises, which help to tone the entire body. “The key to abdominal work should be to strengthen the core, avoid back pain and protect against possible injuries and not just have a flat and beautiful stomach”, says Esther Pineda.
Toning the abdomen not only helps improve posture, but also strengthens the muscles involved in breathing, improves athletic performance, protects the health of the back and promotes balance. In addition, it protects the internal organs and corrects the functional strength involved in day-to-day tasks.
With weight or without weight? The Pin Twins explain that you can choose to practice the routines with or without weight depending on the physical condition and level of each person. «The variety of exercises to work the abdomen is infinite. Be creative, you can not only do shrinks or front plates. There are thousands of fun and original exercises », they reveal.
Routine 1: Activate the abdomen
In this first routine of the #ApuntoconlasPin challenge, they propose doing four sets of 12 repetitions of each exercise and 15 seconds of rest between exercises. No material will be needed to carry out this fitness routine, although it would be convenient to have a mat so as not to hurt our back, since we will carry out the entire session on the floor.
Routine 2: Reduce abdominal fat
The second routine to work the abdomen is composed of four exercises and each of them is repeated 15 times. In addition, the entire circuit must be performed three times. The rest time between each series is 30 seconds and we will not need material except a mat or towel so that the back is not in direct contact with the stiffness of the floor.
Routine 3: Eliminate love handles
The third routine includes five exercises. Each exercise in this routine is repeated 12 times and the entire circuit must be performed four times. The rest time between each series is 45 seconds and we will not need any type of material to carry out the training.
Remember that last Sunday we started the #ApuntoconlasPin challenge with the Pin Twins and that last week we dedicated to the sessions to work the glutes. You dare?
