In order to get a shredded six pack, you must train and sculpt your abdominal musculature with effective ab exercises. But that's only half the battle!
To really see your newly developed midsection, you will also have to shed the belly fat that is covering it up. The ab exercise that I'm going to show you now will help you accomplish both of these goals at the same time!
Most commonly performed ab exercises train the muscles in your midsection but do nothing to cause a fat loss effect. I prefer to use ab exercises that cause a fat burning effect, in addition to training the abdominal musculature directly.
I will now teach you an incredibly effective exercise that provides you with the dual effect that we spoke of above. This ab exercise is named the Parallel Bar Knee Raise. This is an awesome exercise but I must give you a fair warning. This is an advanced and relatively difficult to perform. You must have a reasonable amount of upper body strength before attempting it.
Parallel Bar Knee Raise- With straight elbows, support your body on parallel dip bars. Keep your upper body as upright as possible. Flex hips until they make a 90 degree angle. This is the starting position. From this position, bring knees up to chest and contract your abs intensely. Return to starting position and repeat.
As I have mentioned, this is an advanced exercise. If you are unable to perform this exercise properly, I recommend starting off with less difficult exercises in order to achieve a solid base of required strength.
One great exercise that helps prepare you for the Parallel Bar Knee Raise is the Reverse Crunch. Begin in a horizontal position and progress towards vertical as your abs get stronger. In just a short amount of time, you will be moving on to more advanced movements.
Alright, good luck, and go get yourself some ripped abs! - 15995
