It doesn’t take hundreds of crunches to get rock-hard abs. By standing up straight (and sitting up straight) and pulling your abs in tight, you’ll work them out all day long! And we all know that 16 hours of holding your abs in is a lot more of a workout than 5 minutes of crunches.

The best solution is to do some crunches AND pull your abs in all day.

Try it like this * When you sit and stand, imagine there’s a string attached to the top of your head pulling your whole body up. See how your hips automatically tuck under and your tummy sucks in? For comparison, slump down and see how your stomach pooches out.

It will take a while to train your body how to sit and stand correctly. But keep it up and soon it will become second nature. You’ll look younger, thinner, and have great abs!
