They involve little to no equipment and are dedicated to helping you build the abs of your dreams.
Before we get into your workouts and exercises, it's important to note the importance of abdominal strength.
Your abs includes the muscles that run from your rib cage to your spine and hips. Their main function is to resist movement. This means when they are strong, they work to stabilize and protect your spine from wear and tear as well as injury. So, although we all want better looking abs, strengthening them also has both a major function of injury prevention as well as improving the performance of your workouts. In other words, the stronger your abs are, the better your workouts and results will be, along with the more resistant you'll be to injury, especially at your low back.
Note: some exercises are shown using an exercise slider. You can substitute the slider for a towel or magazine on a surface like tile or hard wood or use a furniture mover on carpet.
