6. Ab In & Outs

How To:

Protocol: 20 reps

Target Muscle(s): Abs (All), Rectus Abdominis, Lower Abs

Ab In-and-Outs smash the abs from top to bottom. They require balance and core stability, and absolutely destroy the six-pack muscles and lower abs.

(1) Lie flat on your back with your legs extended.
(2) Contract your abs, pull your knees in towards your chest, and crunch your abs up. You should form a “V” with your quads and upper body.
(3) SQUEEZE for 1 second and release back down to a full extension. Repeat for 20 reps.

You can also do these on a bench, raised platform, or straight on the floor.
