Toned Abs Lean Legs Firm Butt

Toned abs, lean legs and firm butt is an awesome guide for people with stubborn problem areas that don’t respond quickly. If you are one of the many who spend plenty of time doing cardio or strength training and your trouble zones just don't respond then this article is for you! These advanced tactics will help you tone and tighten even the most stubborn areas.

Flat Abs
Most people would be happy simply to have flat abs but even that can be difficult for some. Abs are probably one of the toughest trouble spots even for those who are in good shape. The secret to toned abs is to target the abs at the deepest level and from every single angle as well as with different tempo. Pick three to five different exercises (from the list) and do one set of 15-20 reps for each exercise. Work on contracting hard and play with the tempo. Do some exercises fast and some slow. After one complete round of all exercises repeat one or two more times. Stay away from weighted ab machines if your goal is lean flat abs.
Best Ab Exercises

Lean Legs
The best moves for lean legs are basics like squats, lunges, step ups, lateral lunges, and deadlifts. Start by incorporating these into your routine and you’ll see an amazing difference from this alone. Once you feel comfortable with these exercises you can move on to tri-sets which don’t require a lot of weight but work your legs hard and get you results fast. Start with 10 repetitions of squats, immediately follow with 10 repetitions of reverse lunges, then go right into 10 repetitions of step-ups. By this point your legs will be burning. Take about 1 minute to rest and then repeat the sequence 2 more times.
Legs Workout

Great Glutes
The workout in the shapely thighs paragraph typically produces great glutes, but if you feel that you need a little extra help there are some great moves you can add to the end of your leg routine that will definitely improve your rear view. Single leg reach, ball leg curls, ball bridges, and single leg hip extensions, are awesome for glutes. Try 3 sets of 12 repetitions each. Try these
