  • Need quick killer ab routine (lower/upper/oblique)

    I have no problem going to the gym and taking care of business except when it comes to abs...I always say i'll do them tomorrow or i will do it once I finish up, i'll do it after cardio, ill do it after sprinting, etc...and then I never do it, I keep putting it off for the next day, and a week's gone by and i haven't done nothing w/ my abs

    I have a defined stomach with my diet but I would like to get my muscles a little more bulky

    when i do ab workouts which is rare, i do a combination of leg raises/6 inches with ankle weights, I do a couple hundred situps with a 45lb plate, and then i either use dumbells, or a bar to twist with for my obliques

    I would like a quick 5 to 10 minute workout i can do once or twice a week either before I lift weights or do my running

    Do abbs befor every workout not as much as a load as you have listed but so 2-4 sets of 25 for each part so sit ups,leg raises,obliques on the hyper extention bench or the bike crunches and 2 or 3 days do them befor and after and ofcourse use weight b/c you want bulk,you say your abbs are defined so maybe you can get away only worken them 3 days but if you do them befor every work out after a while you wont be able to forget to do them b/c it becomes routine.

      Do you train every muscle every day?

        do i or does he?


        i do the push (a)/pull (b)/rest
        3 day routine

        and i switch up heavy and light every 3 days

        so like push heavy/pull light/rest/push light/pull heavy/rest


        and when i do ab work it's normally been on my rest days, but i'd like to do it on all my push days......i get worked too hard on my leg/back days to add the ab work

          What usually works for me for abs that's short and intense is doing three exercises, one immediately following the other, in a tri-set. Usually I'll do Roman chair knee- or leg-raises (15), then lying leg raises(15), then crunches (15), or rope crunches, then lying leg raises, then crunches

          good luck

            i thought that having a good diet would be best for showing your abs. of course doing crunches and such, is important but i think your diet is pretty important too in gettin your abs to show

              yeah, my abs are showing but like i said i'd like more bulky muscle in my ab area which would force it to be even more defined

                I asked a similar question a few weeks back. I was bored of my routine.
