The 5 Ab Exercises That Produce Results

They've created a ton of products with the express purpose of keeping you from getting the ab results you really want while selling you machines that don't work very well. Who are they? They're the big guys in the fitness business who are very aware of the big money to be made this way. So, wise-up, don't waste your hard earned money and precious time on these contraptions, instead, just do these five exercises and watch the fat melt away while you get the abs you really want.

#1 - The deadlift is an exercise that is a must for any ab development program. This not an exercise for sissys. You have probably seen huge, musclebound powerlifters performing this on the international competitions. Don't worry, you will not look like one of those guys. Special diets are required to acheive those results. The real benefit you will receive from the deadlift is a good workout of your back, legs and especially your abs.

#2 - The Squat While the squat is primarily a leg exercise, it relies on the abdominals in order to keep the body straight and safe during the lift. When you're balancing weight on your shoulders, your body needs to engage your abdominals to keep itself upright. Move through the movement and keep your abs reasonably tense, and your chest puffed out. While your legs may ache right afterwards, it'll be your abs that see the true benefit in a couple of months.

#3 - The Sit Up This is a classic abdominal isolation exercise, and is incredibly effective when performed alongside the two other major lifts. For best results, do your sit ups at the end of your weights routine, and after any major cardio. Isolation exercises are always best done at the end of your routine, as they stress muscle groups that have already been exercised in your major lifts.

#4 - The military press is another good choice of weighted exercise for ab development. It also works the chest, arms and shoulders. To make it effictive for an ab exercise it must be performed while in a standing position, otherwise the strain goes to the legs if done in a sitting position. The benefit to the abdominals comes from the effort to maintain an upright and straight posture while pushing the weights from shoulder height to above your head.

#5 - This next exercise needs a small amount of equipment, available in about any gym. You will want to end your routine with this one because it will really put some exhausting strain on your stomach and your abs will be super pumped. Perform it while hanging from either a chin up bar or a leg raise frame. Simply raise your legs to a horizontal position while maintaining them straight and pointed. Produces incredible results.
