Middle ab workouts

I’ve got a secret for you. You can’t isolate your middle ab muscles from your lower or upper ab muscles. Now, I’ve got another secret for you. You can’t spot reduce fat on your stomach any more than you can spot reduce fat on your elbow. This is why, even though ab workouts do strengthen ab muscles, you can’t see the results.

In order to see your abs men must get below 10% body fat and women must get below 16%. You will simply not be able to burn the kind of calories required to do this by doing ab exercises.

Now, here is the biggest secret of all. To work your abs you need to work your other muscles instead. The exercises I am going to show you are designed to work all the muscles in your body as well as the core muscles of your torso which include your abs. Above and beyond that, they will raise your body’s metabolism for days afterward so that you are getting the fat burning effects of the workout well into the future.

1. Military Press. In this exercise you start by holding a barbell at the level of your shoulders and you raise it over your head. Lower the barbell and repeat.

2. Clean and jerk. This exercise starts with the barbell on the floor. Simply grab it with your hands faced down and lift it up to your chest in one motion. Then in another motion raise it over your head. Lower and repeat


3. Dumbell snatches. Start with a dumbbell between your legs. Bend down, grab it and lift to high over your head. Lower and repeat.

4. Dead lift. In this exercise you stand with your legs shoulder width apart and bend over a bar bell. While looking forward and maintaining a straight back you squat down and pick up the bar bell to your waist. That’s it.

5. Squats. In this exercise you will place a barbell on your shoulders and simply squat with the weight as if you are sitting down before coming back up and repeating the motion.


6. Romanian dead lift. Also, known as the straight leg dead lift. This is similar to the regular dead lift but you don’t squat to pick up the weight. It is important to remember that your legs must be slightly bent.

7. Lunges. You can do this workout with or without holding dumbbells in your hands. Simply stand in place and step forward with one foot while you lower your other knee toward the ground. This workout can either be done in place or walking. Make sure to repeat and equal number of times for both legs.


These exercises will work out all the muscles in your body including your abs. They are simple exercises but don’t let looks fool you. They will give you a killer workout and leave you winded. Click Here!
