Everybody wants a six pack, but nobody wants to take the time to assault the abdominals. The abs respond to intense exercise just like any other part of your body. Today I am going to show you how to launch an all out assault on the abdominals.
Explanation of the Workout
You are going to be doing a series of 5 exercises. You are going to squeeze your abs hard during each set of these exercises. This will take you about 20 minutes and should be inserted into your training plan every other week. Use 1 minute between sets to rest. Push hard!

Discussion of Workout
This workout is aimed at completely fatiguing your core. It will have your core screaming for mercy! Don't ignore your core! I guarantee that if you hit this workout consistently you are going to see improvements in the other big lifts you do (squats, deadlifts, etc.).
You can also add other ab workouts to your routine. Just do this one every other week as it is very intense and will require some time for your abs to recover.
