Other than SEX whats good AB workouts

[Fast Food]

What is everyones preference for abdominal routines? I have never had a real good one and am looking for some different things. What I DONT need here, are those fuckers who were blessed with ABS coming out of the womb saying to me, "oh... I dont work my abs out, I have been lucky" well SHIT! a lot of good that does me! haha. But I'm lookin for sets and reps and which excercises. Have clen & T-3 to help too, but wont be hittin that till late March.

THUMBS UP!!!

Believe me, I am definitely not one of those blessed people. I have a nice 2" layer of fat covering them that I am trying to get rid of. The ab excersizes I like to use are cable crunches, where you are on your knees using a cable rope. The other is leg raises. As far as reps go, I usually keep them in the 20 to 30 rep range with a moderate weight on the cable crunches. I'm afraid to go heavy with lower reps, because I don't want the abs to actually grow.

But you know, as far as getting the fat off, that's got everything to do with cardio and diet. You can do ab excersizes til you die, and if the diet isn't right, and you don't do cardio, or enough of it, you will always have fat there.

oh absolutely, the meals are a huge thing. I eat 1800 calories a day, 180 protein, 180 carbs, try for less than 40 fat, 30 fiber, and try to keep it less than 2400 sodium, and less than 45 sugar all per day. I have this spreadsheet made out that is awesome, with all the food to eat, from starches, dairy fruits and so on. I just want to get those abs, I think i might step it up to about 30 reps. I use the cable thing on my knees with the rack (either 130 or 150) cant remember but i do 3 sets of 20 on those, and then the typical decline abs. I guess i really want to work on the lower abs and the obliques.

Hey Fast Food.....with a name like that............nevermind.......you probably own a McDonalds franchise Ha-Ha. Anyway when you get a good plan and I'm sure others will offer advice on the basics try to work in some crunches on the lat tower wearing gravity boots. If you don't know what these are ask someone at your gym. Most gyms have a set. Remember cardio and a proper diet will go a long way towards achieving your desired goals. This is an excellent addition to you ab routine.......good luck.......Vegas

If you can feel abdominal ridges under your fat, you're halfway there. If you can feel something under the fat and there's little to no detectable definition, you must build those abs via hypertrophy. Visible abs are a product of low bf and muscle acheivement. If you already have a strong back, your abs should be in pretty good shape too. You need strong abdominals to be able to perform the core exercises in weight training. I'm sure that anybody that is somewhat weight trained, already has a six pack. They may be under some fat but they're there because they were trained directly and/or indirectly. Decline crunches (or even situps) should do nicely. Weighted decline work will give you the hypertrophy desired in the abdoninal region.

Weighted decline crunches for hypertrophy...right on track.

Geeze... i didnt know that my name gave off so much!!! haha. No fast food is pertaining to years ago on here when i was getting supplies out, I was pretty fast with it. I do not ever eat at fast food resturaunts.... mcdonalds wouldn't be that bad of a franchise either seeing that most americans are fat slobs that dont care. I'm not fat by any means, just abs do NOT run in the family. I know what you are talking about with gravity boots.... I'll give that a try. How many different excercises do people do per workout for abs???

THUMBS UP!!!

do 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps of weighted decline situps 2-3 times/week. keep adding weight and develop some muscle there in the next 6-8 weeks. than worry about the clen, t3 and body fat. u don't need to do a lot of fancy ab stuff.
