Abs From Hell!!! Advanced ab Workout.

I came up with this program myself after doing endless, advanced ab moves in the gym without any real results. Within half a year of following this workout program I started getting compliments and people asking how I did it! After a year I had to stop using this workout regularly because it made the rest of me look puny. To my surprise this workout isn't published anywhere on the web that I know of.

Let's get started and I'll explain as we go along.

1) Warmups and stretches. I have injured myself by showing off a bench press without doing proper warmups (wasn't worth it).

2) Deadlifts.

3 sets at about 75% of your 1-rep-max (so you can get about 8-10 repetitions to near-failure)

This is whats known as pre-fatiguing. Although normally you would pre-fatigue the smaller muscles (abs) by doing isolation moves, I find it works better for abs to do the compound move (deadlift) first.

3) Sit ups.

3 sets of sit ups.
Try to stay under 20 reps by adding resistance with weights or bands. I start out holding a 25 lbs plate to my chest and do up to 20 reps to failure. Second set I drop to 20 lbs. Last set I use 15 lbs. If you don't have a bench use a mat and place your feet under a barbell.

4) Air Bike, ab roller, gorilla chin.

Do these or a combination of simple ab exercises to finish off whatever is left of your abs.

5) This is where it gets tough!

Just kidding. Cool downs and stretches and you're done!

Hope you've enjoyed this workout because you"ll be feeling it for a week. Good Luck!
