Program Ab-solute Definition

Exercise No. 1: The abdominal body stetch
They begin and end all of its routines (any level) with this exercise because it is more of a stretch. It is essential to stretch before any workout (for heating) and after (for cooling) This reduces considerably the chances of injury. Lie down on your face, arms beside your head and stretch as far as possible. Also stretch your legs, feet and toes of the feet as much as possible in the opposite direction. In point of maximum tension, Hold for 15 seconds, then release.
Perform five times (repetitions).

Exercise No. 2: hanging leg raises
Perform this movement requires the use of a horizontal bar to hang, for example, a door bar dominated. His grip should be slightly wider than shoulder width.

Bend your knees and try to raise your legs as high as possible (you should try to play his chest). Do not keep your pelvis straight for this exercise completely, because then other muscle groups besides the abs come into play.

Keep your area of the pelvis slightly curved upward throughout the movement (see diagram) this ensures the pressure on the abdominal muscles. Hold the raised position for a few seconds (keeping abs "tight") and then lower your legs.

To ensure the proper and most effective way, make sure not swing your legs up. Keep the movement slow and controlled leave their jobs.

Exercise No. 3: Hanging knee raises
This exercise is the same as the last, except here, you have to bend your knees fully and try to lift your legs up as far as possible (preferably chest).

Exercise No. 4: Horizontal Leg Raises
Lie on the floor on your back. Place hands, palms down under of your pelvic area. Keep your head and shoulders slightly off the ground. This intensifies the pressure on the abdominal muscles and gives better results.

Now, with a controlled, smooth motion (no "rocking"), raise your legs and pelvis until your feet point upward.

At this point you can add a "push" movement by the thrust of his feet up this adds more tension to the abdominal muscles. By breaking down the legs, make the previous year in reverse.

Exercise No. 5: Straight abdominal
Lying back on one knee to a sitting position with his hands behind head or touching his temples. In a controlled manner, slowly lift head and shoulders of 30 degrees from the earth. Hold for one second (tensing the muscles abs. drives). Release and return to the starting position. No "pull" of your head with your hands. Each repetition is successful, it will take at least two seconds.

Exercise No. 6: Vacuum abdominal
These are similar to straight cracks, but work predominantly across the abdomen. When you lift your shoulder left, must also increase its opposite (right) of the hip, and vice versa. Be sure to keep the "twist contraction" position for at least a second, maintaining tension in the external ab. muscles.

Exercise No. 7: Semi Sit-ups (accelerated)
Unlike all the other exercises in this exercise this program must be done as quickly as possible. Lie on your back with knees bent and your legs at right angles to the ground. Now, up and down head, shoulders and upper chest as fast as possible.

Exercise No. 8: Tucks Rock
From the knee bent to a sitting position put his arms on the floor beside you with palms facing down. Moving in a controlled manner, pull your knees (keeping them together) slowly toward your chest. Keep abdominal muscles. tense everywhere. Hold this contracted position for two seconds and return to the starting position. (On returning to the starting position, try to keep our feet three inches the ground, as this remains a constant tension on the abs and is more beneficial).

Fieldwork base (back-up, pivot on front and rear, etc ...), trot, trail riding, and when the weather is nice, swimming. Be careful to do hill work because if you have a horse that is not used to it, could damage a ligiment or something. Lunging can help but may make your horse very excited at times, unless fine to attack. But the truth, just walk.
