leg raises with a 50lb dumbell overhead. intermittent stomps from a barefoot bear would take this to the next level. anyone able to ummm... "release" from ab exercises alone?
As long as we keep in mind that abs are, and always will be largely (85%~) a product of diet. You can attain a well defined mid-section through diet alone and never do a single ab exercise.
Conversely, no amount of sit-ups in the world can overcome a simple carb loaded gut. The final 15% for toning and separation goes to exercise. Whichever one your anatomy can tolerate most.
I'm just going off the title of this post. So my body transformed to like where I am today back in 2018. I'll admit I used to be one of those guys that did 6-7 different types of crunches. But I evolved and do more full body exercises that incorporates my core.
My fav ever ab exercise right now is my weighted sit ups. I use a 50b slam ball to do 5-7 slow reps of 10 with me focusing on perfect form and crunching my abs as hard as I can upward. That's a big reason why my abs look the way they look today.
hey guys...you've all mentioned pretty traditional abs exercises. To really get the advantage in GP and to be indestructible (yes it is possible) you have to isolate the various parts of the abs individually and develop isolated control. It's efficient use of energy and makes whatever part of the abs that is taking the punches unbreakable..it's unique ...I developed it..have trained everyone from amateurs to Chuck Norris and "Benny the Jet"..no I am not bullshitting,...ask me...
Planks till exhaustion. And hanging leg raises, possibly combined with pull ups. Or even better, with a punch to the gut to keep flexed. When I was a teen, we would do challenges about who could keep a straight L hang the longest.
Not sure exactly what you mean but look at my blog for my fav - hanging "windshield wipers" and or knee ups. Hanging puts your core in tension (good for the back). A full motion legs-up or knees up (making sure one curls the spine, rather than flex the hips) is one of the toughest exercises out there and by twisting one gets the obliques too.
Gut strengthening exercises with some quasi-suspended 'sit ups.' I wanna always be ready to receive! ... Open to punch, pound, prod, poke, kick, stomp, elbow, knee, and employ objects ... use, abuse, and enjoy these furry abs! 🤛🤛💪😈

Spot on comment. Get the sugars and other refined carbs out of your diet. That will work wonders. Get the beer out while you're at it.

Absolutely. I do very similar exercises myself. I just wasn't as specific.
