Crunches in the pool? If possible


If you are one of those who prefer to swim, we have good news, you can get your flat stomach while playing in the pool.

Even if you don't believe it, it is not necessary for you to give and give it the crunchs to have abs . If you are one of those who prefer to swim, we have good news, you can get your flat stomach while playing in the pool.
Curb abs
Keep your elbows out of the water, at the edge of the pool, while submerging your legs . Then, lift them in the same way you would if you were out of the pool to chest height , but do not exceed the line of the hips with the knees.
Swim to crol squeezing the abdomen
To perform this exercise, squeeze the abdomen throughout the entire journey. Try to keep the hip, shoulders and back on the surface of the water. Make 4 lengths of 100 meters with fifteen seconds of rest between each one.
Trunk lifts
To do this we will place the twins resting on the edge of the pool, so that we bend the knees and the rest of the body is in the water. We will start from clutching our legs with our arms to let go and tilt our backs back to concentrate all the tension on the abdominal wall . In this way, and without immersing the head in the water, we will rise to touch the knees with the chest causing the abdomen to contract, and so on.
Pedaling
Make the pedaling movement, as if you were doing an exercise bike, with your head and arms out of the water. With this exercise we can work the rectus abdominis and obliques.
The V
Go to the part where you don't stand and try to sit with the body and legs forming a V. The head and ankles should be out of the water.
Jumps
We will finish the series with some jumps: jump by opening and closing legs and arms for a minute. Next, bring the collected knees to the chest: the movement must be fast. Finally, some splits or strides under water.
