Here are 3 ab exercises that will utilize both your upper and lower abs. Make sure you keep good form throughout the entire exercise as best as you can. Add the push up routine found below and there you go…hit your abs with 2 different circuits (push ups work your abs great if you keep your belly tight thru out).

Below is how I’d have a healthy client perform these exercises:

beginner 20 reps of each…circuit entire 3 exercises 1-4x

Advanced 40 reps of each…circuit entire 3 exercises 2-5x
