Six Pack Abs – Tips on How to Get Them WITHOUT Crunches

Pretty much every guy has wanted a ripped stomach at one point or another in his life. The kind of shape your stomach is in has been, and always will be, one of the first things people look at to determine how “fit” you are. While your genetic make-up definitely has something to do with the kind of abdominal muscles you can achieve, it’s not the only thing involved.

Anyone, and I do mean anyone, can overcome some no-so-good genetics and get the midsection of their dreams with a little hard work, dedication, and persistence. Today I’m going to talk about how you can achieve, AND keep, that ripped look that you want. It’s up to you whether you get there or not. Are you up for it?

Tip # 1 – It’s NOT All About Crunches

I have no idea why, but there are still TONS of people out there who immediately turn to crunches when they want to work on their abdominals. They just start doing hundreds and hundreds of them, and they seldom do anything else. I guess it’s because crunches have been around for a long time, and they’re “easy” when compared to other stuff.

Tip # 2 – Mix Things Up With A Pull-Up Bar

Numerous studies have been conducted that prove, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that there are LOTS of abdominal exercises out there that do a better job of targeting these muscles than the average crunch does. So what are they? Well, if crunches are the only thing you’ve done before, and you haven’t seen the results you want, I highly recommend working on a pull-up bar.

The two best abdominal exercises you can do from a bar are the Hanging Knee Raise and the Hanging Twist.

Hanging Knee Raise:

Start by hanging from the bar with your knees bent. Keeping your knees together, proceed to raise them up into your chest, squeezing your abdominal muscles as hard as you can. Repeat for as many repetitions as you can.

Hanging Twist:

Start in the same position as the previous exercise. This movement is very similar to the last. The difference comes when you raise your knees up. For this one, twist your knees to one side as you raise them up towards your chest. Doing this does a better job of isolating your oblique muscles (the “love handle” area on the sides of your body).

One repetition is complete when you’ve raised your knees to each side. Just repeat to each side as many times as you can.
