Hindu Push Ups, Toe Touches/Sit Up Negatives, Flutter Kicks. side planks are good for obliques if you want those, deadhang/deadhang swings for serratus anterior since I consider that as a part of core work.
>You are supposed to be able to work your abs every day so its a good idea to have a "warm up" style work for it.
What? No, right? Why are abs suddenly different from every other muscle?
>20+ hanging Leg raises >no abs
literally how? I did little to no direct ab workouts and i still had a solid 6 pack when i dropped down to 12% bf during my last cut.
What? Abs don't show until you are peeled. People who think they are 15% are usually 20-25% bf etc. And even so you don't have ripped abs at 15%. Majority of people get way too worked up over numbers even though the mirror tells you the truth. The guy claiming he is 6'1 and 170lbs mean nothing.
Number one he could be twisting the truth from both ends, is probably shorter and weighs usually more. And secondly people are just generally very delusional and compare themselves to others with similar specs. The truth is that you just don't have nearly as much muscle mass as you think. For all I know he needs to be 150lbs to have abs.
Pic rel is a 5'9 manlet, but he had to drop into the 120's to have solid abs. Someone who is taller with similar muscle mass would definitely need to be way less than 170lbs to have abs.
Are they weighted? I do 20 hanging leg raises with 30lb and weighted planks with 80lb for a minute or more. I'm 6'1 185 and abs only show after pump but I do have a Adonis belt when I flex. Body weight is a huge meme for abs you need to add weight just like any other muscle.
I tried a workout once where I sat in a chair and bent both halfs of my body towards eachother. That one made my abs hard. I don't know for sure but I'm going to try your picture out to see if I get results. Wish me luck 🙂
I just do Scooby rotisseries. Front, right side, crunches, left side, repeat. Optionally add wall-sits after the left-side.
I don't actually do these because I'm currently a sad-sack fat loser and lowkey alkie but when I was doing them I looked gorgeous. I hate brown adipose.
There’s a type of hollow body crunch which is literally the best ab exercise you can do, but most vids/guides I see online do it wrong. Basically you need to do a hollow body leg raise + crunch simultaneously. It looks simple but doing it right will hit the upper and lower abs. Most other ab exercises will only hit a couple. Combine that with ab rollouts or planks and it’s all you need (unless you need to focus on obliques a bit but most people don’t).
Just do 3-5 sets of hollow body crunch + ab rollout/plank everyday.
get your body fat measured. Your goal is 11% (more or less).
However, i can't personally recommend it, especially if you are female. It's basically malnutrition and for women actually a health hazard (period be delayed, stop and go or stop entirely. Especially bad if you look forward to getting pregnant).
hanging leg raises and woodchoppers
Is that a warmup?
>it's a warmup stupid
Gets me every time.
why do you pretended you are not understand women? that's all they willing to do, stay still, not moving for a few minutes
>stay still, not move for a few minutes
t. Cant hold plank for more than 50 seconds
The full infographic it says you move between them without rest for sets of 200.

Abs recover much faster than the other muscles.
>Abs recover much faster than the other muscles.
Not in my experience. Everyone is probably different.
If you can do 10 normal pull ups you have abs under your fat, assuming you're a man
>Back exercise
>You'll have no abs for less than 10
>If you're a man
What the frick is this post? homie everyone has some form of abs under their fat
pull-ups do burn the core pretty well since your body works hard to stabilize your dangling legs
I can do 15+pullups and can also do 20+ hanging Leg raises with straight legs yet my abs do not show at 6'1 and 170 lbs.
>20+ hanging Leg raises
>no abs

His body fat is probably higher than he is saying

Do you actually feel your abs working hard? Do you allow your ribcage to just move around or do you keep it tucked tight?

Cut
The hard truth
that's 70% of it
20% is sleeping, 10% is exercise
front squats and ab roller

is training for adonis belt (v-cut abs) a meme? does it just slowly build shape over your lifting career as your abs grow?
hello I'm an eternal skelly, I was like 90lbs with a v cut at one point
Deck squats seem to work.
Start with the Greeks.
Not OP but if you have anymore book infographics like this please post them. Love seeing these pics as I'm always after something new to read.
All you will ever need.
