Keep on reading to find out what the top 5 ab workouts are!
Plank
A plank exercise is the best exercise to strengthen your core and abdomen. These exercises strengthen your hips, lower back and abdomen and improve your body balance. It stimulates more abdominal activity than a regular crunch and works the muscles in your back as well.
How to: Supporting yourself on your forearms and the balls of your feet, bridge up and position your body in one straight line. Pull your abs in tight and hold for 30-60 seconds.
Kick it up a notch: From the plank position, reach forward with your right hand, hold for a count and slowly return to the starting position. Do the same with your left hand and repeat.
The bicycle crunch
Adding bicycle crunches to your workout routine helps to increase core strength, slims down your waist and improves your stability and flexibility. This exercise works your abs and obliques and because it keeps your body moving constantly, boosts your heart rate and burns even more calories. It also stimulates more abdominal activity than the traditional crunch including your lower stomach and obliques.
How: Lying on your back, bring your knees up to form a 90 degree angle and keep your hands by your temples. Crunch up and twist across the body while simultaneously performing a bicycle motion with your legs. For example, if you crunch up and to the right you should draw your right knee in and vice versa. Repeat for 20-30 reps total.
Side plank
Not only is it a killer core exercise, but planks help tone your shoulders, obliques, and legs from heel to hip. This move also strengthens the deep muscles of your low back, so it can help with lower-back pain. Side planks also stimulate and tone your glutes, quads, hamstrings, inner/outer thighs and your upper body.
How: Lie on your side with your forearm perpendicular to your body and one foot stacked over the other. Bridge your hip up and hold for 30-60 seconds while maintaining a straight line with your body.
Kick it up a notch: Raise your top leg so that it’s parallel to the ground (this full version of this is called Vasisthasana in yoga).
Vertical leg crunch
The vertical leg crunch is a great core exercise. It is similar to the basic crunch, except that the legs are perpendicular to the floor. This position increases the intensity of the exercise, so it is a good next step after you've mastered the basic crunch. It can help you reach your goal of flatter and more attractive abs and a strong core.
How: Lie on your back with your legs up in the air, knees slightly bent. Try to touch your ankles with your hands by contracting just your abs, but keep your chin off your chest. Repeat for 12-16 reps.
Kick it up a notch: Reach towards your toes and hold the position for 15 seconds for a V-sit.
Reverse crunch
The reverse crunch is a challenging core exercise that primarily hits your rectus abdominis, the muscle in your abdomen that makes up your “six-pack.” Since reverse crunches flex your spine less than traditional crunches, they’re thought to be easier on your back.
How: Lie on your back with your hands tucked under your bum and your knees bent. Bring your legs up until they form a 90 degree angle from your torso. Do a pelvic tilt and pull your knees in towards your chest, squeeze and slowly lower to starting position. Aim for 15-20 reps.
