This was tough to finish with complete sets for sure

Here is another routine of some of my go to ab exercises. I love switching it up between body weight and weighted training when I am targeting my entire core. This routine will be sure to target the entire core. Remember, ab exercises are like any other lift, no need to rush them. Focus on contracting the core on every movement, breathe naturally and control every rep. Let’s get it!

These are called resistant ab tucks and are a great way to target the lower abs. Take a resistance band and wrap it around a stable object. Then pull it over both your feet and keep your toes flexed forward to keep the band from coming off your feet. Balance on your butt and focus on crunching your body in, while tucking your feet in. It is very similar to a full body crunch. If you need added resistance, you can move further away to tighten the band.

Ab Rollers are such a great way to target the entire core and one of my favorite isometric exercises. Here you will perform normal ab rollers but instead of going directly straight, you will go on an angle from left to right. This will engage and target more of the obliques. As you come back up from roll each time, arch your back up (like how a cat does to stretch) and this will keep the contraction even at the rest part of the rep.

Ab Rollers (side to side)

Hanging side raises are as good as it gets to build muscle on the obliques. You can also do these with resting resting your elbows on the bottom pads in the video, but I prefer hanging with the arm straps because it isolates the core even more. If you can’t do these with weight than body weight is absolutely fine but if you can push on with the weights I highly suggest it. I snatch a dumbbell between my feet and it feels totally natural. Make sure to breathe and avoid body swinging.

Hanging Side Raises (weighted)

This exercise is another oblique destroyer (in a good way). Find a light weight dumbbell or kettlebell and set yourself up on a decline bench. Once you adjust the leg lock settings to your preference, you want to lower yourself down and aim to have your shoulder blade graze the bottom of the decline bench (let’s say your right one to start). Once you hit the bench you want to sit up and twist that right shoulder forward and push that DB or KB in the same direction. Once you hit 10-12 reps on the right side, switch to the left. This should be done in a slow and controlled motion.
