You may burn fat and lose weight just by brisk walking or running but in order to have sexy abs or at least make a progress, you definitely need some exercises. Most of the exercises you find on the Internet have flaws because they always forget to include exercises for lower abs.

The title says “20 days” but the number of days may increase or decrease depending on your lifestyle. Some people have faster metabolism and watch what they eat so they can make outstanding progress and get sexy abs less than 20 days but don’t blame me if you keep eating Burger King just after completing your exercises.

Don’t forget to rest for 45 seconds between sets and 2 minutes between each exercise.

• In the prone position, rest on your forearms and keep your legs straight and slightly apart. Form a straight line with your body. Your elbows must be in a straight line with your shoulders. This helps avoiding an overload on the shoulder joints.

• Hold this position for at least 25 seconds.
• Relax the muscle of the torso and return to resting position.

• Start by sitting up straight on the edge of your chair with your hands on the sides of your hips. Engage your abdominals by drawing your belly button into your spine and make sure you can still breathe. It should feel more like you’re bracing for a punch and less like you’re sucking in your stomach while looking in the mirror.
• For our first move, keep bracing your abdominals into your back and keep your spine straight. Lean back so that just your shoulder blades are lightly touching your chair. Point your toes and lift your heels so that just your tip toes are barely touching the ground.
• Maintaining this reclined position, alternate lifting one knee up at a time. The key is to maintain that braced sensation too deeply activate your abdominal muscles as you lift and lower your legs.
• To make this harder, you can try lifting both legs at the same time.
