Abdominal Core Strength and Six Pack Abs Workouts

Exercising the core muscles, the abs (rectus abdominis) and obliques, is something that just about every person trying to lose weight, keep fit, build muscle, train for sports or running, does at some point. It is also the way to develop a six pack, i.e. the well defined abdominal muscles on the stomach. There are many different methods available to develop these muscles, from martial arts and boxing training methods, to yoga and pilates, as well as weight training and bodybuilding. Rather than try to evaluate each form of exercise to determine which one is “best”, we shall simply present a series of tutorials for the various styles and forms of abs training. Hopefully there will be something to suit everybody.

  1. I really think that too much emphasis is put on abdominal training. I train my abs once a week, with heavy weights and get great results. The diet aspect tends to get over-looked too frequently.

    Definitely. There is a big difference between developing strong abs and showing off a 6 pack. Core strength is still vital for many sports though, even if you are not interested in the world seeing your abs.
