by John Carter
Filed under Core Body & Abs, Workout Routines
This Abs workout is made up of the top 5 rated absĀ exercises*
Remember that killer abs and an amazing six-pack can’t be get by exercise alone. You need to be looking at less than 10% body fat for most people to have a visible 6-pack.
That said, the benefits of a strong core and abs region are more than just cosmetic! One of the major contributors to lower back problems is a weak core or excessively large stomach.
As with all exercises, take care & use correct form so that you avoid injury. The Hanging Pike exercise is quite an advanced move so if you’re a beginner you should leave that out.
Depending on your fitness levels you should look to have a rest period of up to 60 seconds between sets and up to 3 minutes between each exercise.
