Ab Attack
Goal : To create sleek strong flat abdominals. Sometimes one body part lags behind others and requires a bit more attention to catch up. This program gives you 4 weeks to get your stomach as toned as the rest of you.
The Ab Attack Program Details:
4 workouts a week for 4 weeks. When you've finished, switch back to one of the other programs- this program is not designed to be done for more than 4 weeks.
Now, take a print out of following tables for each week uptill week 4. There are three empty columns against each day for you to fill in. So, start scribbling all over it - you'll find ticking off workouts and filling in food logs is one of the easilest way to boost your motivation. To know in detail about what all details you can fill in these columns, refer the article for using fitness diary pages.
Week One
This week is all about locating your abs and learning how to do the exercises properly. Your task is to find out where they are(if they exist!). Focus on doing the exercises properly. This is much more important than doing lots of reps.

Week Two
Now you've found your feet, get into some kind of routine mentally and try to improve your diet. The exercises should be more refined, clean and fluent than the first week, but always try to improve. Aim at being able to commandeer intense localized effort in your core muscles throughout your workouts.

Week Three
Self-evaluate and try and learn by your mistakes: are you pushing yourself hard enough? Are you focused on the job in hand? Are the exercises as clean and fluent as they could be? Don't be afraid to push yourself that extra little bit and keep smiling.
