The way you train other muscles and abs is no different go for differing angles and speed. Our best lower abdominal workout for six pack abs is designed specifically to impart maximum intensity on the abs.

The Essential Warm-up

Warming up prior to every weight training session is a must. The purpose of the warm up is to gently prepare the ligaments, tendons and muscles for the main course of the workout. You will find if you warm up thoroughly that you can actually lift heavier weights without the constant concern of muscle injury. Lets build those six pack abs. 

Exercise 1 Ab Blasting Crunch

Forget normal crunches lets get advanced for greater results

Lie on the floor in the Crunch position, knees bent, hands over ears, or resting on the back of the head.

Now, crunch up approximately 10 inches, holding the contraction for 6 seconds. Tense your abs in this contracted position. As you return slowly to the starting position keep your abs tensed all the time. Repeat until failure. Rest 30 seconds and finish with normal crunches.

Exercise 2 Hanging Leg Raises

Hanging Leg Raises are a superb exercise for building the lower abdominals.

Start with a shoulder width grip hanging from a chining bar with your arms fully extended.Keeping your knees together but slightly bent raise your legs as high as possible in an attempt to reach your chest, no swinging allowed. Tense the abs hard while holding this position for 5 seconds. Lower your legs slowly and repeat. You should be looking at 10 reps.

Exercise 3 Pulley Rope Crunch

This exercise is my favourite for blasting those six pack abs.

With the rope attached to the high pulley on the cable machine, grab one end of it with both hands. Pull the rope down so that you are kneeling on the floor with your hands positioned just above your head, ensure that your hands stay firmly locked in this position. Pull down using your abs by bending forward at the waist all the way to the floor, squeeze your abs hard then slowly return to the starting position keeping your abs tensed all the way. Do no lower than 10 reps. These lower ab exercises will build you solid six pack abs.
