if you do these, you'll develop your abs and be able to take more blows.

Answer 2

The more you exercise those muscles the hardened they'll get. Decline sit ups and crunches work well for me. Also you my want to look into body hardening. This isn't for everyone. Once you've developed your ab muscles you have someone actually strike you in the ab area till it desensitize and hardens further. I seen this when I was in Thailand and it seems to work.

Answer 3

crunches, lots and lots of crunches....

during each crunch have someone hit you lightly in the gut with a basketball or something similar, then as you get tougher, have him hit you harder and harder, then once you have mastered that, hang by your hands with arms extended and raise and lower your legs while someone does the same thing to you, also you should alternate with stomach and back blows... you need a tough back and sides also.

good luck buddy!

Answer 4

Lots of situps can strengthen the stomach. There are other things to keep in mind. What caused the death of Houdini? It was someone hitting him in his rock hard gut.

Answer 5

Getting punched in the stomach will tighten the muscles... getting you used to it. "Body Hardening"

Answer 6

Lots and lots of abdominal exercises like sit-ups.

Answer 7

Pain is relative.

No amount of exercise will block pain receptors.

Don't let macho ideas get you in trouble.
