Best ab exercises for 6 pack abs

These exercises works your entire body, in additional to develop the 6 pack abs at the same time. So you are not working directly your abs. The benefits are simple. You force the body work harder, in other words I call this as a high intensity workout, because you are hitting more muscles than just your midsection and naturally working with the several muscles at a time, the actual target muscle will stimulate much better.

To make this ab workout even more efficient, we are using tri-set technique. It's a similar to a super-set technique, but you are performing 3 different exercise, each one after another with no rest between sets. This make sense, when you are trying to burn fat and stay as lean as possible.

How many reps, sets?

For the best results, I recommend to make 3-4 sets each exercise. After you have performed these three exercises, rest 1 minute or longer, until your heart beat decreases and breath becomes steady.

Do approximately 8 reps of renegade dumbell rows and front squats. If you wish, you can add 2 sets and do less reps, for example 5-6.

Your mission is not to over spend all of your energy to one exercise, rather to make 8 reps and save your energy for next exercises.

Mountain climbs can be done for a time interval. This is a light exercise, for example you can do as many reps as you can within 30 seconds.

My 3 best abs exercises for six pack are:

1) Renegade dumbbell rows

Take two dumbbells in each hand and get yourself in a pushup position. Start rowing one dumbbell at a time while stabilizing your body with the other arm.

At this position squeeze your entire midsection. Lower the weight back to the starting position and alternate by rowing the other arm and stabilize your body with the other arm.

You will create an incredible stress to your entire midsection and trust me, it is more powerful than any crunches or sit ups, you have done before.

You can choose the heavier dumbbells to increase the stress level, but I recommend, that you learn the right technique first.

2) Front squats with barbell

Front squats are similar to regular back squats, but in front squats, you will achieve the greater pressure to your midsection. That means, you will force your ab to work harder while keeping your body in balance.

Grap the barbell on your front shoulders and stabilize the barbell by crossing your arms and pushing your fists into the bar against your shoulders while keeping your elbows out in front of the body. You should learn the technique properly first, before you take heavier weights. Try to keep your elbows slightly upwards to let the bar rest on your shoulders. This exercise is on of my best full body exercise, even though this is mainly a leg exercise, you will work the abs as well.

3) Mountain climbers

Mountain climbers are an effective exercises, that you can do in almost everywhere and it's easy to perform. Starting in a pushup position, start suffling your feet alternately in and out, so that your knees are moving in under your chest and then back out to starting position. It's like climbing a mountain, but instead going to the Himalaya, you are doing this exercises flat on the floor. If you want more advanced version, you can shuffle your hands 8-10 inches forward and backward in addition to the leg movements.

- This is another great full body exercise. After doing all three sets 3-4 times, you'll abs start begging mercy!
- Try to consistently variating the order of exercises.
- Increase the resistance (weight) in each workout or decrease the amount of time. Remember to keep the workout challenging and ascending!

These are my 3 best exercises for six pack abs and you should definitely try these in your workout. Actually these compound exercises works far more better to build 6 pack, than basic ab crunches or sit ups that works directly to your abs.
