Abdominal risk. Avoid them as far as possible

Despite the constant recommendations from experts to do exercise your abdominals correctly, there are still many people who develop abdominal considered at risk by involving danger of injury. This type of stomach crunches do not take into account the morphology and nature of the abdomen, so that their achievement will not be natural, but we will be forced to incur in a move that will force us instead of making the exercise to develop naturally.

Worst of all is that many people consider as effective this type of exercises that not only involves the abdomen, but affected other parts of the body that is working improperly. Has always been taught that the abdominals are worked through the usual exercises in which we placed our legs fixed at a point with his back against the floor and grab arms do the head. Thus try to touch your knees with your chest so that the abdomen is working at the time of raising the weight.

So far everything sounds good, but if we stop to analyze this year we will realize that we make several decisions that we can take its toll eventually. When we perform this exercise put the legs normally fixed at a point, or anchored to a machine or under a weight to keep moving. This position is really revealing that the legs are involved, because if you do not force them not land would rise and would not need to keep them anchored.

To start, the legs are affected by this exercise, and not only them but the poses is also involved in conducting the rotation of the hips and straining to raise the trunk. A risky move that may affect this area of the body. To continue, we must consider the place the hands behind the neck with what that implies for the cervical area, since the rise we tend to place his hands a driving force that compels us to bend the neck to the long running to force the area and to develop an injury. To avoid this you can simply place your hands beside your ears, avoiding exercise force, thus allowing the spine to keep it aligned throughout the exercise.

The part of the poses is affected also the lower back and abdominal part. Thus we subtract the exercise intensity in addition to such lesions during sudden movements. It is recommended to avoid contracting the abdomen just concentrating the pressure on this part and thus work to maximize the area for which you do not need the whole trunk off the ground; we simply must get working muscles, the abdominals.
