It is a common misconception that you have do hundreds and hundreds of sit ups and crunches to get flat abs. You don't even have to do one sit up or crunch and you can still get flat abs and the stomach that you have been dreaming about. With the tilt, tuck, and tighten method that was developed by fitness expert Shaun T in his workout Hip Hop Abs, you can flatten your abs and you never have to get on the floor.

Doing sit ups can be painful on your back and your neck. If you do not do them properly you can even injure your back and neck. It is not comfortable laying on the ground and crunching up and down as your back and neck get jolted all around.

Not only are sit ups and crunches uncomfortable and painful, they are also not very effective in getting six pack abs. What many people do not realize is that crunches will not get rid of the fat on your stomach. There is no way that you can spot train and pick and choose where the fat comes off your body. Sit ups may help to strengthen your abdominal muscles and give them definition but if there is still a layer of fat sitting on top of the stomach muscles, then you will never see your defined muscles. Instead all you will see is a belly paunch that never goes away.

What you need to lose belly fat and get flat abs is cardiovascular exercise along with exercises that strengthen and tone the stomach muscles. Through a technique called tilt, tuck, and tighten, Shaun T provides that type of exercise in one easy workout called Hip Hop Abs.

The way that this technique works is that you are constantly engaging and contracting your abdominal muscles during your whole cardio workout. This not only provides you with a

cardiovascular workout that burns fat from your entire body, but it also helps to strengthen and tone your midsection. It is an all-in-one comprehensive workout so that you can get flat abs in a quicker period of time. In Hip Hop Abs, you will never see Shaun T do one crunch or sit up on the ground. Instead, he basically does his “sit ups” while standing and dancing.
