The Best NO-CRUNCH Bodybuilder Ab Workouts

Recently Craig challenged me to give you as many NO-CRUNCH ab exercise options as possible, since he thinks crunches aren't necessary.

I can see his point...so I took his challenge.

Let's start with an Intermediate Workout Program. I used this in my recent 6-week to 6-pack abs personal challenge...

1) Intermediate Abs Superset:

Perform 5-6 sets of this after your cardio workout or before or after your weight training workout:

A1: Supported (on a dip bar) Leg Raises
A2: Lying Leg Raises on a Stability Ball  - bend your knees to modify

Rest 60 sec max and do 5-6 sets to failure on each one (goal should be 15-20 reps on each)

This really emphasize the lower abs!

2) Best ab exericse?

If I could only do one.. I would have to go with weighted crunches with cables or hanging leg raises. If your grip fails you before your abs do then go with weighted cable crunches - NOTE: These are NOT traditional crunches. If your grip is strong enough then stick with hanging leg raises.

3) The Best Non-Crunch Movement?

Anything that had to do with wood choppers. 

Go from high to low, low to high and horizontal. Focus on full range of movement and speed before increasing the weight.

You can do these with cables (my prefernce) or medicine balls. These are also very functional and incorporate your shoulders, arms, gluts, hams, quads and get your heart rate up.
