What are some good exercises for toning up the lower abdominals? Does swimming work?
Swimming is great for toning. You should also use direct ab exercises. To really get your abdominals to show, you must diet and include aerobic exercise in your routine. Exercise without maintaining a diet rich in protein to enhance muscle development, is like having a car without an engine; you get absolutely nowhere. Concentrate on overall fitness and maintaining a healthy heart. Nothing beats healthy eating. Eat a combination of lean protein and healthy carbohydrates every few hours throughout the day to speed up fat loss and maintain stable energy levels. For best results, eat six times a day. Weight train intensely, three times per week on alternating days with aerobic exercise three times per week.
