RAISING THE CHEST :

This exercise will more

specifically develop the

upper part of the stomach

muscles. Set the board’s

slant according to the

degree of difficulty and the

intensity you want for this

exercise. Sit down on the board so as to prop the front of your feet on the lower foot

props. (To intensify the exercise, you can prop your feet between the board and the

upper foot props).

MOVEMENT DECOMPOSITION :

Starting position, seated on the board, place your hands along the body at chest or

front level. Breathe in and lean backward without ever going beyond an angle super-

ior to 90° between your thighs and your chest. It is useless to go beyond that point.

Furthermore, if you lean backward too far you could injure yourself in the loins. While

puffing, curl yourself up so as to bring your chin close to your knees.  Think of cur-

ling up so as to contract your stomach muscles by bringing together your sternum and

your pelvis. Come back to your original position while breathing in, your stomach

muscles should remain contracted.  Your head and your shoulders should not be

relaxed. Start the movement again while breathing out.

Exercise variant :

for a better localization of oblique muscles, do the exercise

while alternatively bringing together a shoulder and the opposite knee.

RAISING THE LEGS :

This exercise will more specifically develop the lower part of the stomach muscles. Set

the board’s slant according to the degree of difficulty and the intensity you want for

this exercise. Lie down on your back, grab the upper prop spurs with your hands.

MOVEMENT DECOMPOSITION :

With your knees bent. Start the exercise with your

thighs at a 90° angle with your chest. It is useless to

bring the legs down too far. Furthermore, you run the

risk of placing your back in hyperextension.

Bring together your knees and your shoulders while

breathing out. Your knees should remain bent. The hol-

lows should remain slightly off of the board so as to

contract your stomach muscles. You should always think of contracting your stomach

muscles.  To do so think of bringing your pubis and your sternum together in order to

create the stomach muscles’ contraction.

Come back to your original position while breathing in, without bringing your legs

down too low.

TRAINING :

Work in series of 10 to 50 repetitions.

Start progressively if you are a beginner (3 series of 10 repetitions at the start and

progressively increase the number of repetitions and of series).

For more efficiency, exercise your stomach muscles every other day. Stomach muscle

training can be done every day.

SAFETY ADVICE :

When raising the chest, do not place your hands behind your neck.  You could try to

help yourself by pulling on your arms and injure yourself.

When raising the chest, only rest the small of the back on the board.

Your thighs and your chest should be at a maximum angle of 90° throughout the

whole exercise. Do not lean backward during the “raising of the chest” and do not

tend to lower your legs during the “raising of the legs”.
