| Abs!
Hey guys, was wondering what your suggestions are in terms of getting a six pack.. This is my routine everyday. I have started to see some of my fat turn into muscle since my last post, and am very excited. Now I would like some advice on how I can specifically turn my abdominal fat into muscle. This is my daily routing 3 sets of each exercise... I do this before weights.
Bicycle crunches x 50
Toe reachesx15
oblique crunchesx15
Russian twist x 30
TIA!

Everyone knows that abs arent made in the gym
Plus why waste your time doing ab work when you could be doing something more productive, like deadlifts

+1. Deadlifts would be more effective for abs than all those exercises the OP posted.

People who can't see their abs make the mistake of doing a million ab exercises, hoping they would show. You already have abs, but you need to shed the fat that's covering it. Like the people above said, abs are made in the kitchen, meaning you have to adjust your diet (Google is your friend) As for being in the gym, concentrate on cardio, squats, and deadlifts, and they'll be visible in no time. |

I don't know why people bash doing ab exercises. Even if you shed the layer of fat, what if you are genetically predetermined with abs that aren't as visible/defined(ie people who are smaller in terms of musculature). YOu can't tell them NOT to do abs if their goal is to increase their abdominal mass/definition.

"specifically turn my abdominal fat into muscle"
There is no such thing as spot reduction. It is a complete myth. Also, I think you are getting the wrong idea from what people are saying although it is correct. Doing squats and dead lifts while incorporating cardio will be the best and most efficient way of shedding fat off your body as well as burning the most calories and producing/distributing the most lean muscle/testosterone.
Your ab routine should be performed after your workout as well, if at all. Most of my clients do ab work once a week and only 2 sets at that.The reason why people are recommending squats and dead lifts is because it involves intense core work, and produces the best gains. Excessive floor crunching can hinder your abdominal wall and potentially shorten the muscle head, will pull your head forward and encourage poor posture. Working your lower back from dead lifts will help greatly in bringing in and tightening your abdominals. Squats are key for a hard body.
Listen to what these guys are saying, it's all true.

What's the point of doing ab exercises when you cannot even see them anyways. My point was that you need to shed the fat covering your abs before trying to create any definition in them. Why did you even bring up the tricep thing? Squats and deadlifts are GREAT for your abs like Alar said.

OP, It takes months, maybe years to gain "mass" to abs. EVERYONE has abs, its just the fat on your body that covers them. If you get down to 6-7% body fat and tell me you dont like your abs, then do toe reaches.
