In the exercise with lifting the upper body on the back, the abdominal muscles work as mobilizers. Exercise options are useful to include in any program for the development of abdominal muscles. (Note: inelastic back extensor muscles, such as the erector spinae, will not allow maximum contraction and full range of motion.)

Raising the upper body lying on your back with bent legs

Exercise characteristics

  • Additional exercise
  • Isolated
  • Traction
  • With own body weight
  • Beginner and advanced levels of physical fitness

Brief description of the exercise

Raise slowly upper part torso. Lift your shoulder blades off the floor, and leave your lower back motionless. Pause, return to the starting position and repeat the exercise. (If you keep your arms crossed on your chest, it will be easier to perform the exercise, but without supporting the head with your hands, unnecessary tension in the muscles of the neck will not be removed.)

Stabilizing muscles

  • Abdominal muscle group.
  • Neck: Sternocleidomastoid muscle.

INITIAL POSITION

  • Lying on your back with your legs bent at the knees with your feet on the floor.
  • Hands behind your head.
  • Do not move your neck or chin while performing the trunk raise. Keep your chin slightly down and neutral with respect to your cervical spine.
  • Do not use your arms to lift your torso. Engage for this isolated movement of the abdominal muscles.
  • Don't slouch. Keep your chest straightened, bring your shoulder blades together.

  • Traction
  • open circuit
  • With own body weight
  • Intermediate and advanced levels of fitness

Brief description of the exercise

Slowly raise your upper body. Finish lifting and bending the torso by pulling the upper body to the knees. Pause, slowly lower yourself back to the starting position and repeat the exercise.

Initial position

  • Lying on your back with legs bent at the knees, feet pressed to the floor.
  • Hands behind your head.
  • Keep your neck in a neutral position.
  • Maintain constant tension in the abdominal muscles.

Tips for proper exercise technique:

  • Don't use momentum. Perform a slow, controlled movement with full range of motion.
  • Do not move your neck or chin when lifting your torso. Keep your chin slightly down and in a neutral position with respect to your cervical spine.
  • Do not use your arms to lift your torso. Must be used to perform an isolated movement of the abdominal muscles
  • Don't slouch. Keep your chest tight and your shoulder blades together.
  • Exhale as you move up.
  • It is preferable to do fewer repetitions without fixing the lower limbs than more repetitions with a partner or fixed legs. If you are held by your legs, then as the speed increases, an inertial force will be generated, leading to an increase in the load on the lower back when lifting the torso. This can injure the lower back.

Many of the women who do not play sports consider the horizontal bar to be a purely masculine sports equipment, supposedly it trains the muscles of the shoulder girdle. But few people know that with the help of a horizontal bar they tighten the abdominal muscles, and also make the press embossed. In the latter case, the exercise achieves an effect when you lift the body, there is tension in the press, and the hands on the horizontal bar only keep the body in weight. Women can also engage in such training, because such exercises on the horizontal bar are more effective than usual ones, and simple ways pump up the press. For your consideration, we offer the main types of exercises that will help to remove the "tummy" and tighten the skin in the waist area.

The benefits of horizontal bar exercises for training abdominal muscles

Firstly, the horizontal bar is public sports equipment, which is available in many yards, so you do not have to pay a lot of money to visit the fitness room. Currently, many of the people arrange the horizontal bar at home, and they can train at any time. free time even in bad weather.
The main advantage of training the abdominal muscles on the horizontal bar is their high efficiency. Because, when performing exercises, a very large load goes to the muscle fibers, and deep muscles. With other types of occupations, this cannot be achieved. This is because during classes there is a large range of motion and significant weights. Achieve such a result by doing all known way to pump up the press - lifting the body from the floor - is not possible. In addition, training on the horizontal bar relieves people of fat deposits in the lumbar region and buttocks. To achieve greater efficiency when training for the press, it is necessary to perform the movements correctly. Efficiency depends little on the frequency of classes and the number of approaches to the projectile. To get the desired result, you need to follow some rules, the description of which is placed below.
  • Performing the exercise at the time when classes are taking place, control your breathing. The rise should be done on the exhale, and on the inhale lowering.
  • It is important that there is a reliable grip with the horizontal bar. To do this, treat the palms with a special powder so that they do not slip.
  • To avoid injury on the bar, keep your thumbs under the bar.
  • When doing exercises, concentrate on a specific muscle group, exercising control over their work. When performing exercises, the work should include, first, the muscles of the press, and then the hips and buttocks. You can't strain your back.
  • Movements during classes must be performed without jerks, smoothly, otherwise the back muscles can be damaged. As well as ligaments of hands.
  • When doing exercises for the press on the horizontal bar, it is recommended to use special belts to fix the legs, because there must be grip with the legs with the horizontal bar.
  • For exercises that involve a vertical hang in a straight position, do not relax the abdominal muscles when lowering the legs.
  • Before you raise your legs, you can’t swing the body, otherwise there will be less load on the abdominal muscles, because such a rise of the body occurs by inertia due to its strength.
Before you start exercising, be sure to do a warm-up. It can be a regular exercise, or a couple of cardio exercises - an easy jog, or jumping rope. If you have a weak muscular corset of the shoulder girdle, then performing the exercise will not be easy. Therefore, you need to warm up this muscle group before starting classes.

A set of exercises for the press on the horizontal bar

Raise your knees bent


Starting position - vertical hanging on the horizontal bar in a straight position. Spread your arms wide on the bar and lock them in this position. Bend your knees and slowly lift them up, at the same time tighten the muscles of the lower part of the press. When lifting, try to get your knees to chest. When the feet reach the level of the head, slowly return to the starting position. This exercise must be performed 10 to 15 times. This exercise perfectly trains both the muscles located in the lower part of the press, and the lateral abdominal muscles, which are quite important for women.

Raise straight legs parallel to the floor

Starting position - vertical hanging on the horizontal bar with fixed hands shoulder-width apart. Keep your legs straight together and slowly raise them until they are parallel to the floor. Hold your legs at a height of just a second, straining the press, and slowly return them to their original position. When performing this exercise, the work is carried out by the rectus abdominis muscles.
It is recommended to perform up to 10 repetitions.

Raise your knees bent to chest level

On the horizontal bar, fix your hands in position wide grip. Keep your knees bent. Move your feet back and your toes should point to the floor. Without straightening your knees, slowly raise your legs. Continue lifting until you reach chest level. Then tighten your abs as much as possible and gradually return to the starting position. The exercise is recommended to be performed 15 times.

Raise the legs bent at the knees to the sides

Starting position - the same, bend your legs at the knees. Keep your feet together, toes pointing forward. We start lifting the legs and try to pull them as close as possible to the left shoulder, touching the chest with the knees. Having reached the desired height, slowly lower your legs with knees not extended. Do the same movements on the other side. At the same time, the abdominal muscles must be constantly in tension. Perform this exercise twelve times.

Raise straight legs up

Hang on the horizontal bar, placing your hands very wide, and clasping the horizontal bar with them, stretch your legs down. When you fix your hands, start lifting both legs up. When your legs are parallel to the floor, hold this position for a second. After that, continue lifting the legs, putting their feet on the horizontal bar. Hold your legs up for one second, feeling how your abdominal muscles are tense. After that, return your legs to their original position. This exercise engages all the abdominal muscles. It must be done ten times.

Raise straight legs to the sides

On the horizontal bar, make a vertical hanging position, legs straight, hands holding shoulder-width apart. Slowly lift your legs up, and when your feet reach the level of the horizontal bar, lower your unbending legs to the left. Hold the position for one second and lift your legs up, and then lower them to the right. IN this exercise only the abdominal muscles are involved, while watching your back so as not to bend the spine. The exercise is aimed at participating in the work of the oblique and rectus muscles of the press. It is recommended to perform 10 times.

Raise the body from a hanging position upside down

Hang upside down on the horizontal bar, holding on to it with your legs bent at the knees. Or, with the help of clamps, secure the legs where they are located calf muscles. Cross your arms over your chest. Straining the press, do body lifts. Keep your back relaxed. Try to make the ascents as high as possible. This workout works the upper part. We recommend doing up to 15 repetitions of the exercise.


We wish all women success in training on the horizontal bar.
