Who has a home workout for six pack abs?

Basically, I have an exercise mat, kettlebells(3kg, 6kg and 8kg). Weights (dumbells), perfect pushup rotators, an ab wheel and I do Shodokan Aikido… Does anyone have a home made workout for 6pack abs, pecks and muscle?

Mary asks…

What are some great abdominal workouts that you can do at home?

I’m always searching for new and better ab workouts that can help me get a more defined stomach. I have an ab routine that I follow religiously consisting of a variety of crunches and other exercises, and have a toned stomach, but what I’m looking for is how to get that really defined six pack. If I’m putting the effort in, I’d really like the workouts I’m doing to be the most effective. Any suggestions?

My hockey team does abs before we start our lifts. 3-way core: lay on your side and then lift yourself up with your elbow, keep your other hand on your hip. Try to keep your body straight and dont sag your hips to the ground. Then switch to the other side right away after 30 sec or whatever. Then switch to the front. Then we sit up and touch left elbow to right knee and switch about 5 times each side, holding for 5-10 sec, then go into a cycle. Then we lay on our backs with our legs up in the air straight and rotate from side to side, keeping your back flat. Then do some sit-ups on your own, some more leg rotations and then you’re going to want to quit

you can do tons of stuff sitting and keeping your feet up, like putting your hands out to the sides and then pushing your legs out and bringing them back in. Laying on your back and lifting your legs can do a lot as well. You can do russian twists with our without weight.

Hope that helps. Try looking up ab exercises on men’s health websites too because they usually have good stuff

David asks…

What are some good and effective ab workouts?

I’m trying to gain a six pack and I can’t afford to goto the gym, so what are some workouts that are effective and that I can do at home?
Also how can I get my self motivated to continue with the exercises?

admin answers:

Jogging is an excellent exercise because it let you lose weight
evenly throughout your whole body. If you want to lose weight in
specific areas, you should target them with exercises. If they are
your problem areas, they will be very difficult to tone. You will have
to work double on them. The best approach is this:
1. Lower/control your daily calorie intake (control for normal
weight, lower for overweight).
2. Run/jog to lower your overall body fat percentage.
3. Target your problem areas with exercises.
An excellent exercise, you can do it in front of your TV: sit on a
stool, and put your toes under something (piece of heavy furniture,
for example). In your hands hold a little dumbbell. Please, make sure
that it is not very heavy, start with one kilo, for example, or you
will damage your back and spine! Slowly move the upper part of your
body back, until it’s parallel with the ground. Stop for a second and
move it back to the sitting position. Repeat ten times. Every week add
to the number of repetitions. You will see the results in a week,
guaranteed! You will see or feel under the fat – if you have any – six
pack and muscles. Dumbbells do wonders. Much better than these
crunches – I came up to three hundreds and there was no results AT
ALL. With the dumbbells you will see it in a week.

Medicine Ball Ab Workout Exercises


CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.TurbulenceTraining.com Youre about to discover an amazing medicine ball abdominal exercise circuit published in Men’s Health Medicine magazine from the December 2008 issue. If you’ve seen the magazine, then you will have seen there are a lot of crunches and even some sit-ups in there. But, if you’re not an advanced college athlete, then you probably don’t need to be doing those exercises. You especially want to avoid those types of exercises if you sit at a desk all day and have lower back problems. So, I’m going to take most of the exercises from that program and do them in this circuit, but replace the sit-ups and crunches with alternative versions that are still effective for your abs, but easier on your lower back. This is going to be a 10 exercise circuit, with 20 repetitions per exercise. If you’re advanced, then you can use a medicine ball; otherwise you can use a basketball, or a soccer ball. You will start the medicine ball abdominal circuit with the big circles exercise. So, place the ball above your head and then bring it down and around, and up the other side, and then around again. Continue this motion for 10 repetitions, and then switch directions for another 10 repetitions. The second abdominal exercise is the Woodchopper. To perform this exercise, place the ball out in front of you and swing the ball straight up and down, making sure to squat down while bringing the ball down. Repeat for 20 repetitions. Once you’ve

askthetrainer.com This is a great set to use if you are short on time and want to work your core, abs, shoulders, triceps, chest and obliques. Your core will never get a rest during this entire set. It is best to perform this with a BOSU ballast ball but a stability ball is okay if you are on a flat surface so the balls won’t roll away. Give this one a try and see how many times you can complete left and right arm medicine ball push-ups, stability crunches and plank. REMEMBER…. Stick to the basics. Start from a low level then advance. If you don’t do squats, bench press, pull ups lat pull downs, dumbbell rows, barbell rows, lunges, etc. you have absolutely no reason to do “cute” accessory exercises such as this one.
