CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.TurbulenceTraining.com Youre about to discover an amazing medicine ball abdominal exercise circuit published in Men’s Health Medicine magazine from the December 2008 issue. If you’ve seen the magazine, then you will have seen there are a lot of crunches and even some sit-ups in there. But, if you’re not an advanced college athlete, then you probably don’t need to be doing those exercises. You especially want to avoid those types of exercises if you sit at a desk all day and have lower back problems. So, I’m going to take most of the exercises from that program and do them in this circuit, but replace the sit-ups and crunches with alternative versions that are still effective for your abs, but easier on your lower back. This is going to be a 10 exercise circuit, with 20 repetitions per exercise. If you’re advanced, then you can use a medicine ball; otherwise you can use a basketball, or a soccer ball. You will start the medicine ball abdominal circuit with the big circles exercise. So, place the ball above your head and then bring it down and around, and up the other side, and then around again. Continue this motion for 10 repetitions, and then switch directions for another 10 repetitions. The second abdominal exercise is the Woodchopper. To perform this exercise, place the ball out in front of you and swing the ball straight up and down, making sure to squat down while bringing the ball down. Repeat for 20 repetitions. Once you’ve …

You will begin with the warm-up for the intermediate level and then begin your first superset with dumbbell squats and stability ball rollouts, which is a difficult abdominal exercise. So, for the db squats, hold the dumbbells at your sides at arm’s length with your feetslightly wider than shoulder width apart. Next, you will squat to parallel and then push back up while keeping your chest and head up. Be sure to keep your shoulder blades together and have a nice proud posture at all times for 8 repetitions. Move quickly over the stability ball rollout. To get in position for this exercise, begin by kneeling on a mat with the ball close to you and your hands down low on the ball. With your abs braced, rollout, stretching the abdominals, and roll back in. So, as you go out, keep your body in a straight line and feel the stretch and then contract your abs to come back up. Be conservative and only go out as far as you feel comfortable. You will perform all repetitions of this exercise and then rest for one minute and repeat the superset 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets. In the second superset of workout B, you will do a dumbbell reverse lunge which is like a split squat and pair that with a side plank. For the reverse lunge, hold the dumbbells at your side and step backwards, bend your front knee and drop your hips straight down, keeping the back …

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com If you want to get a slim stomach and six pack abs, then you need to stop wasting your time on useless crunches and dangerous sit-ups. Instead, you need to focus on 21st Century ab workout exercises to get more results in less time. Heres an effective four-exercise Pre-Fatigue Abdominal Circuit where you are going to fatigue the abdominals with classic endurance exercises and then follow it up with a dynamic moving exercise. In the first exercise, start with a simple abdominal plank, holding that position for 45 seconds while bracing your abs, breathing normally, and maintaining your body in a straight line. That will pre-fatigue your abdominals for the second exercise. Next, you will perform stability ball jackknives for 15 repetitions. At this point in the workout, your abs will be slightly fatigued from the previous exercise, so pay special attention to your form. This is the perfect combination of abdominal exercises to help you strengthen your abs and build the six pack muscles. (Of course, you also have to do interval training to burn belly fat and find the right diet to help you lose belly fat. I highly recommend you stick to whole, natural foods to lose stomach fat and use short, burst interval training to burn fat in less than 20 minutes, only three times per week.) The third abdominal exercise in the circuit will fatigue both the obliques and abdominals and is called the side plank. While holding for 30 …
