The easiest way to gain abs at home

I was wondering “What is the easiest way to gain abs, if I don’t want to go to the Gym?”
And then, i saw a website where i found the answer. I’ve tried some of the Exercises and I’am impressed. Because I always have no time to go to the Gym (I’am sure that I’am not the only one) and in this website i found some easy exercises for the beginners like me , but there are a lot of difficult exercises for advanced. In the beginning i started only with the easiest one, and it takes me only for 5 min in 2 days.
But let me show you for what I’am talking about…

My first exercise : Push Through is one of the best “abdominal exercises” for working the upper area of the abdomen. The focus of this exercise is to push the hands inside the legs. As you push through, contract your abdomen voluntarily to obtain the best possible result.

After 2 weeks I started with this one : Legs completely stretched out and one hand behind the head. Raise your trunk while it rotates in the direction of the opposite leg. At the same time, move the leg closer carrying the knee parallel to the pelvis. Return to the starting position.

After a month I’am still trying this one : Take care as this is a very advanced exercise. Make sure that your lumbar musculature is well-trained before executing this exercise. Imagine a vertical line which starts from your pelvis. Contract your abdomen and bring your shoulders and knees towards the imaginary line. It is very important to keep the pelvis still during the exercise. Return to the starting position.

4 egg whites, lightly beaten
¾ cup honey
¾ cup raisins

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Spray or grease a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable oil. In a wide-based blender or a food processor fitted with a metal
blade, process the rolled oats until they become a fine flour. Sift the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg into a large mixing bowl.
Stir in the whole-wheat flour and oats. Using a spatula, make a depression or “well” in the center of the dry ingredients and add the applesauce,
diced apple, beaten egg whites, honey, raisins and yogurt. Stir gently but thoroughly, just until all the flour is incorporated into the batter. Pour the
batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about full.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Turn
onto a wire rack; serve warm or let cool. Makes 12 muffins.

Healthy Lifestyle (simple tips)

why-meditate-for-a-healthy-lifestyle

Living a healthy lifestyle is about the choices that “you” make.
“We have millions of people now going through adult life leading unhealthy lifestyles
and a medical system that can treat illnesses and keep you alive longer than ever before,”
said Mathew Reeves, a Michigan State University epidemiologist. “If we don’t turn this around,
the costs to society are going to be crippling.”.  I’am sure, some of you are trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but some of us always don’t have time for that. Yes, excuses are real and they are contagious.“I don’t feel like cooking dinner tonight; let’s just get some fast food.” or “Oh, I’m tired, I don’t have time to exercise?”. We have time to work, time to commute, time for our business associates, but very little time to spend on ourselves, people we love, or even random people who deserve our attention.
