Did anybody read in MD about the 6 best ab exercises for 6 pack abs?
They were studied with EMG to estimate how hard the muscle works.
The 6 were..
1.Roman Chair Leg Raises
2.Bicycle Maneuver
3.Hanging Leg Raises
4.Exercise Ball Crunch
5.Vertical Crunch
6.Reverse Crunch(on bench)
Just thought i would put that in there for anyone who didnt read it and to see if you guys also think so.
Roman chair???
I believe the Roman chair is where you are proped up by your elbows and your back is rested againist the back rest. Then you lift your legs towards you chest making sure your tail bone comes off the back rest when you are at the top of the manuver (sp).
I may be wrong. But this si what I thought it was.
Yea thats what the roman chair is. lift your legs up and make an L shape
I always thought the Roman chair was what seated Vertically (Across the bench) on a flat bench, like you were in a chair with no back, with your legs locked down, lean back, (there is no back), then slowly lean back to the upright position. I always thought that was the Roman chair Exercises? OH well, maybe you guys are correct.
I think they both are called roman chairs? lol just one does your back and the other your abs??
