Rebounding Core Workout For Rippling Abs

January 27, 2012 by destrymasterson

Here is the secret to abs that nobody is telling you, building muscle doesn't create a six pack. Look at any major rock star, the only reason you can see their abs is because they have a drug addiction that is very effective in curbing their appetite (no body fat).

If you want to get great abs you have to do two things: you got to drop your body fat and you have to start strengthening your core. Now many people will do crunches day in and day out and then they will be confused when they have a great looking pop-belly that protrudes a good four inches over their belt.

Traditional crunches are not going to build lean abs or a flat stomach, so if you are try to trim you waist you need to do core exercise that strain the body through balance. Look at any yogi and you will see they have excellently sculpted bodies, and that is because they train their core constantly through balance.

However, yoga cannot be described as a high intensity workout, though it is effective it is still not high intensity. This is where the rebounder comes in, high intensity is great because, guess what, it is going to create results fast.

Rebounders have been tested by NASA and all sorts of scholarly journals; basically they are the most effective holistic exercise apparatus on the market. They are going to clean your lymphatic system, excite your endocrine system, and of course strengthen your cardio and circulatory system.

That probably sounds like a whole bunch of medical jargon that most people won't really understand, but that is ok because the point of this article is how to get a ripped set of abs not how to cleanse your body and raise energy levels, though the rebounder will do that too. The exercise is the bum bump; at least, that is what it should be called.

Sit down on the rebounder with your hands in front of you and lift your legs into the air, now bounce up in the air with your legs and hands as high up as you can manage. This may look and feel a little silly at first, but if you are by yourself and you can maintain the bum bump for just 2 minutes you are going to feel a huge burn in your core.

This exercise is going to excite the inner layer of the core muscles, thus pulling your stomach inward rather than protruding it outward. That means your stomach is going to start to shrink rather than blow up.

All you have to do is sit on the rebounder and bounce. The more you can bounce without letting your legs or arms touch anything the more intense the workout will be.
