There's massive money in abdominals, and the fitness giants know it. So, instead of leading you straight to the information, they've created thousands of products designed to stop you from getting what you want, and keep on paying for the newest and most technically advanced ab machine. The problem? 99% of these abdominal contraptions are bogus. Don't let yourself waste your precious time and money on these false workouts, instead focus on the ab exercises that really work, and leave your money in your pocket and your fat sweating off your body. These five exercises will have you working your way towards great abs in no time at all.#1 - Any powerlifter will tell you this exercise is not for wimps. Is is known as the the king of exercises. It is one of three basic lifts performed by the worlds powerlifters. You may think-wow I'm going to look like a big, musclebound hulk. You don't need to worry about that, it requires special diets to acheive a build like that. This exercise is known as the deadlift and without the special diet it will simply work out your back muscles, leg muscles and abs with excellent results.#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 - We certainly don't want to forget the Sit Up. the classic ab exercise. It is extremely effective when performed at the end of the weights routine. It is considered to be an isolation exercise and these kinds of exercise are best performed at the end of other routines since they stress the muscles that have been exercised already.#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 - An exercise that really leaves the abs pumped is the leg raise. This one does require a little bit of equipment but no contraptions. Either a chin up bar or a leg raise frame. Just perform the exercise by raising the legs to your waist keeping them straight and pointed. This one should be done at the end of the routine. The abs will receive an exhausting workout with this one.Great abs yes - Contraptions no, check out the free Great Looking Abs report.
