The term "lower abs" is actually a misnomer—your rectus abdominis muscle, or abdominal wall, actually covers your entire midsection and connects at your pelvis. Still, women (and men!) are constantly searching for exercises that will help eliminate that dreaded lower-belly pooch. (We got your attention, right?) And now the search is over! Most of these effective exercises target multiple abdominal muscles, so you'll maximize your belly-burn with every rep.
Workout details: Do the prescribed number of sets and reps for each exercise consecutively, taking a short 45-60 second rest in between sets. Perform the full workout on 3-4 non-consecutive days per week. Another option is to pick a few of your favorite moves and do them after a cardio session or add them into your regular strength training routine.
You'll need: A mat or towel. That's it!
