6 Best Ab Exercises For Ripped Abs

By Issac Booker

Here's the six best ab exercises for ripped abs :

1. Crunches.

While crunches have their critics, this basic exercise when done properly can be highly effective for developing your higher abs. The higher abs are fairly straightforward to get ripped, and the convenience and simplicity of crunches makes this one of the 6 best ab exercises.

2. Leg Raises.

The most recalcitrant part of the stomach to outline are the lower abs. This is where leg raises come in. They in particular work those lower abs. By doing leg raises you isolate and work the lower portion while not permitting the upper abs to aid in doing any of the work.

3. Side Crunches.

there are several adaptations to side crunches, but once you get comfortable with the variation that works for you, your obliques ( side abdominal muscles ) will be on their way to getting ripped.

4. Hanging Knee Raises.

These are great for working your lower and side oblique muscles and are a great variation to standard on the floor abdominal exercises.

5. Elbow to Knee Crunches.

These are great because you are working your upper and lower abs at the same time. And it's extraordinarily simple to do, simply crunching up with your hands behind your head and elbows extended straight, while simultaneously bringing your knees toward you body to touch the elbows.

6. Twisted Elbow to Knee Crunches.

Out of the 6 best ab exercises, this one's my favorite and one of the best ever. Because you do a normal crunch, and bringing your knees toward you to touch with your elbows you are working both your upper and lower abs. Now, throw a twist into the mix ( twist to touch your elbow to the opposite knee ) you are also employing your oblique muscles, making this an all around ab exercise, good for those with limited time, needing to get a healthy exercise in to work the abs. - 17273
