JORGE CRUISE

Flat belly moves

Is your midsection still recovering from the holidays? Use this efficient, powerful move to work both your upper and lower abs. When you move your upper body and lower body toward one another, you engage your entire core and build strength critical to maintaining a strong back and tight abs.

For an extra challenge, grip a water bottle or hold a medicine ball in your hands. Repeat 12 to 15 times.

Watch for Jorge's flat belly moves each month throughout 2009.

Pullover

1. Lie on your back. Extend your arms back and over your head, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.

2. Keep your abs tight and exhale as you crunch up, lifting your shoulders off the ground and reaching past your knees. Inhale as you lower yourself back to starting position.

To watch a video demonstration, check out Jorge's new video blogat jorgecruise.com. Plus, get a free copy of his "belly fat cure" report.
