Abs/core routine?

Postby Jake The Muss on Tue Feb 19, 2008 4:34 pm

Any one know a good abs/core routine that i can add to my training? I dont really train abs at the moment,and it shows! Also i have heard that landmine rotations are good for building a powerful midsection,does anyone use these in their routine?

Any of the following:

Cable Crunches
Swiss Ball Crunches (from hyper extended to horizontal)
Planks (hold for 60secs)
Side Planks (hold to 45 secs)
Lying Leg Raise to Ab Thrust
Ab Crunch to Ball Throw (requires a partner)
Sitting Ball Twists
Ab Rollouts (kneeing down holding a BB with plates on it and roll forwards to full stretch and pull back in)

I quite like this circuit at the moment:

Planks > Leg Raise to Ab Thrust > Swiss Ball Crunches

No rest between movements and do around 3 sets.
