Looking for the best ab circuit workouts to burn belly fat and get lean abs? Below you'll find the best ab exercises and tips to get great home abdominal workouts that sculpt sexy and lean 6 pack abs.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

Step1
Get lean abs like this by doing the best ab exercises. Start doing the best ab exercises that work the abs the way they are designed to work, as stabilizing muscles. Forget about old school moves like crunches, situps, and reverse crunches (they don't work) and start doing ab exercises that really work the abs hard like planks with hands on stability ball, side planks with side leg lifts, hanging knee raises, stability ball pikes, push-ups with rotations, etc. The more unstable the better.

Step2
Single leg plank burns belly fat, works abs and entire body. Group 3-4 of the best ab exercises into an ab circuit workout you can do after strength and cardio workouts. Perform 10-15 reps of each move with excellent form. Rest for 30-60 second then repeat two more times. Be sure to contract the abs fully as you do all your exercises and don't be surprised if your heart rate goes up and you start sweating. The best ab exercises actually work the entire body and burn tons of fat and calories while working the abs.
Step3
Combine ab circuit workouts with cardio intervals to burn bodyfat faster. Add cardio intervals to your ab circuit workouts to burn bodyfat and work the abs even harder. Try running or jumping rope on and off for 1-2 minutes between ab circuits. Your abs have to work hard to stabilize you while you're running and jumping so you're getting extra ab work while burning tons of fat and this is what gets you that lean sexy 6 pack abs look.
Step4
Take the power wheel ab challenge! After 4 weeks challenge yourself with a tough ab challenge that includes the best ab exercise ever: the football field power wheel crawl. Get instructions for this at:

Tips & Warnings

  • Don't overdo it but push yourself past your comfort zone.
  • If you have trouble jumping rope then jump without the rope.
  • Learn proper form before adding ab exercises to your ab circuit workouts.
  • Always consult with your doctor before starting any fitness program.
  • Stick to exercises your body can handle and work up to tougher moves over time.
