MY AB WORKOUT

*You may choose not to do all parts of the workout but for max results, complete everything!*

I’ve been wanting to do one of these workout posts for a while and I’m finally getting to it lol

I was a competitive jumper and sprinter in high school, and of any events in track, jumpers and sprinters have the best abs. Hands down. So I kinda know my shit alright? Alright

Part 1: Warming Up Abs- Compound Exercises

Exercises that target multiple muscle groups

Burn hella calories which helps you burn more fat when you do target exercises

Squat Workout

-15 normal squats

-5 pulses

-hold 10 sec in squat

(Repeat 3x)

Why this helps: Your abs need to be engaged to help keep you balanced.

Tips

-legs should be hip length apart

-try not to let your knees go past your toes

-don’t look down, try and look at a point slightly above you

-dig your heels into the ground

-squat as low as possible

-ENGAGE your abs. Flex your abs when you squat. Bruh

Push Ups

-Do 10 push-ups on your toes

-You can do the pushups on your knees, but for max strengthening, try to do them on your toes.

(Repeat 3x)

Why this helps: Your abs need be engaged to help fight the force of gravity pushing your hips to the ground.

Tips

-Don’t worry how fast you’re going. It’s better to go slow and have good form

-Don’t let your butt stick up too much. Try to keep your body in a straight line the whole time

-Go as low to the ground as possible

Part 2: Toning: Target Exercises

For extra toning! These really aren’t as effective unless you do do the compound exercises before but you do you!

Plank Workout

Do each for 60 sec with minimal rest between exercises

-Plank

-Ins and Outs

-Plank

-Russian Twists

-Plank

-Flutter Kicks

Notes:

-Research shows that after 10 seconds, holding a plank is pointless. So instead of just holding a plank for 60 seconds, I add new variations to keep my abs engaged in new ways.

Plank Instructions:

-0-10 seconds: hold elbow plank

-10-20 seconds: pulse forward (still in elbow plank)

-20-30 seconds: pulse backward

-30-50 seconds: plank twists

-50-60 seconds: hold elbow plank

(It’s hard to tell which direction I’m doing the pulses in the video and it also looks hella weird but hopefully you get the point lol)

Tips:

-Make sure to not stick your butt up in the air when planking. Remember: your body should be in a straight line!

-You can search up the alternating ab workouts online if you don’t know what they are or you can replace them with your own! I change these up pretty often so I don’t get bored

-Ins and Outs: Instead of putting your hands on the ground, try to hold them by your side in the air

-Russian Twists: It’s easy to make Russian Twists ineffective. Make sure you are fully twisting your body

-I like to do my Russian Twists by making an Ins and Outs/Russian Twists hybrid. I basically do 4 Twists coming up and then 4 Twists going down

-Flutter kicks: Looking at your feet instead of just laying your head on the ground will engage your abs so much more!!

I apologize for how long this post is lol. Let me know if you guys have questions.

ALSO: I hate my legs ok. Please no hate. Doing squats will not make your legs look like mine. My legs are big due to being a sprinter and jumper for 8+years and it’s the natural body type. I prob don’t even need to say this shit but my body dysmorphia fucks me up xx

All gifs are mine thanks for ignoring my messy dorm room adios bitches

So I recently discovered this thing called “bigorexia”

Bigorexia is a type of body dysmorphia, and it is characterized by a preoccupation with gaining muscle mass. This disorder mostly affects men, and I’m very concerned about it.

We hear nothing of Bigorexia in social media. Why? Because nobody cares. Guys overwork, dehydrate, and malnourished themselves to the point of death all the time. Actors have to be perfectly ripped, attaining bodies that are not even remotely healthy and lethal if maintained for too long, just to have a chance at being the lead role. I’ve personally known guys like this: guys who get told that all they are is worthless, so they work themselves to the bone to try and have at least something to love about themselves. It’s horrible and nobody is talking about it. Everyone seems to be under the impression that we live in a society that is designed to cater to men, so they get the shaft, but it’s not 1950 anymore.

If you promote body positivity or are pro-recovery, I implore you to reblog this.

what people, even people in this community, fail to realize about eating disorders

that having an eating disorder doesnt commonly lead to a person being underweight

that having an eating disorder is a mental illness

that anorexia is the most fatal mental illness

that eating disorders are not just anorexia

but bulimia

and binge eating disorder, the most common eating disorder

and every ednos and disordered behavior that doesn't necessarily fit in with the above eating disorders and their subtypes

that people with eating disorders love food the same as anyone else

that its harder to eat than not eat

that sometimes people with eating disorders will go days, weeks, months, even years eating "normally", not even caring about the calorie content or getting rid of it, until they suddenly realize what theyve done

that the behaviors that result from eating disorders are addictions

starving is addictive

purging is addictive

eating an entire carton of ice cream to avoid your feelings is addictive

therefore we literally cant just stop our disordered behaviors

so stop telling us to "just eat normally"

we

can't

that commenting on what someone eats is never okay, but especially horrible if you know that person suffers from an eating disorder

that something as minor as going to a grocery store is extremely anxiety inducing

that eating disorders don't go away when you turn 20

that body dysmorphia is real and someone stick thin calling themselves fat is most of the time not a cry for attention but a genuine reflection of how they feel

actually, that eating disorders in general are not a cry for attention

that eating disorders should never be taken lightly

ever

that a lot of recovery institutions only care about putting weight on patients to make themselves look good

that recovery can be traumatic

that recovery only works when that person wants to recover

that, to someone with an eating disorder, being forced to eat is one of the worst fucking things in the world

that fear foods cause literal, actual fear

that binge eating disorder is not less real than any other eating disorder

that people with eating disorders are still people

trying on clothes is really hard when you hate yourself. liking someone is really hard when you hate yourself. eating is really hard when you hate yourself. life is really hard when you hate yourself

[xthxnanddeadlyx-blog]

Hearing “I’m so proud of you” when you feel like you aren’t doing enough really does lift a lot of weight off of you.

THROUGH A RAPIST’S EYES” (PLS TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. It may save a life, It may save your life.)

An Article from Neena Susan Thomas

“Through a rapist’s eyes. A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interview…ed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:

1] The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun! , braid, or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.

2] The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who’s clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around to cut clothing.

3] They also look for women using their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered.

4] The number one place women are abducted from / attacked at is grocery store parking lots.

5] Number two is office parking lots/garages.

6] Number three is public restrooms.

7] The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to a second location where they don’t have to worry about getting caught.

8] If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn’t worth it because it will be time-consuming.

9] These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas,or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.

10] Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you’re not worth it.

POINTS THAT WE SHOULD REMEMBER:

1] If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk: can’t believe it is so cold out here, we’re in for a bad winter. Now that you’ve seen their faces and could identify them in a line- up, you lose appeal as a target.

2] If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell Stop or Stay back! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they’d leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back. Again, they are looking for an EASY target.

3] If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes,) yelling I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent.

4] If someone grabs you, you can’t beat them with strength but you can do it by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm between the elbow and armpit or in the upper inner thigh – HARD. One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it; it really hurts.

5] After the initial hit, always go for the groin. I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy’s parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you’ll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause him a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble, and he’s out of there.

6] When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.

7] Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don’t dismiss it, go with your instincts. You may feel little silly at the time, but you’d feel much worse if the guy really was trouble.

FINALLY, PLEASE REMEMBER THESE AS WELL ….

1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do it.

2. Learned this from a tourist guide to New Orleans : if a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you…. chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car: Kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won’t see you but everybody else will. This has saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping,eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON’T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side,put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU CLOSE the DOORS , LEAVE.

5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:

a. Be aware: look around your car as someone may be hiding at the passenger side , peek into your car, inside the passenger side floor, and in the back seat. ( DO THIS TOO BEFORE RIDING A TAXI CAB) .

b. If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.

c. Look at the car parked on the driver’s side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!

8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked “for help” into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.

Send this to any woman you know that may need to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it’s better safe than sorry.
