The Path to Perfect Abs
Planks, leg raises, Russian twists, and mountain climbers build core strength and definition. Add cardio for fat loss and finish with stretching to improve flexibility.
A targeted ab workout plan combines core strength exercises with fat-burning cardio to reveal and define your abs. Here's the ideal approach:
Warm-Up: Jump Rope or Light Cardio – 5-10 minutes
Elevates your heart rate, warming up your core muscles and preparing them for the workout.
Plank – 3 sets x 1 minute
A static hold that engages the entire core, focusing on stability and endurance.
Leg Raises – 4 sets x 12 reps
Targets the lower abs, improving strength and definition.
Russian Twists – 3 sets x 20 reps (10 each side)
Engages the obliques, helping to carve out the side muscles of your core.
Mountain Climbers – 3 sets x 30 seconds
Combines cardio with core work, helping to burn fat while engaging the abs.
Bicycle Crunches – 4 sets x 15 reps
A dynamic exercise that works both the upper and lower abs as well as the obliques.
Flutter Kicks – 3 sets x 20 reps
Great for lower abs and increasing core endurance.
Cool-Down: Stretching & Mobility – 10 minutes
Include stretches like the cobra pose, child's pose, and standing side stretch to improve flexibility and aid recovery.
This workout blends strength, endurance, and fat-burning to help you sculpt and reveal well-defined abs. Regular cardio and a balanced diet will complement the exercises, enhancing results.
