Moreover, you work not only your abdomen but also your whole body. First, open your feet about hip-width distance and kneel on the board. Keep your shoulders down and your shoulder bones upright (imagine that someone punches your abdomen). Keep your upper arm steady and bend your elbow. Use the paddle in turn with your two arms. Pull the paddles with a moderate speed for one hour. You might even convince yourself that you have lost fat the next day.
