Tired of the usual and boring abs exercises that dont even produce results? This article is intended to help you find out how to get flat abs through using a workout that provides high intensity stabilization techniques. Changing up an abs exercise routine can help you produce a higher intensity work out which is going to speed up your results.

Here is a full body workout that you can do to get ripped abs in a more efficient and faster time! This high intensity consists of three exercises and is set up in a tri-set format which is similar to like a super-set.

Here goes:

1a. Renegade Dumbbell Rows

1b. Front Squats with Barbell

1c. Mountain Climbers on Floor

You should try to do 3-4 sets of 8 reps for each of these exercises. You can also do more sets and less reps which could be as such, 5 sets of 5 reps. For mountain climbers, your sets would be time intervals (every 30 seconds).

Starting position for the renegade dumbbell is just like a pushup position. With only difference being is that you have your hands on two dumbbells. You then row one dumbbell up while stabilizing your body with the other arm. Then switch arms by bringing the dumbbell back to the ground and rowing the other one this time using your other arm to stabilize your body. It is when you are stabilizing your abdominals are being worked. Trust me… you’ll feel it in the abs!

Front squats as you most likely guessed it are just like back squats, only difference being that you are positioning the barbell in front of your body on the front of your shoulders rather than on the upper back. Get the barbell on your shoulders while crossing your arms to stabilize, and push your firsts into the bar against your shoulders being sure to keep your elbows out in front of your body.

This takes a little practice at first, so you will want to seek a professional trainer at your gym to help you with the form. Front squats require extreme stabilization strength from the abs due to the barbell weight being shifted to the front of the body instead of the back. Even though this is mostly a leg exercise, you’ll feel this one in the abs big time!

Just like the renegade dumbbells, mountain climbers have a starting position of a pushup. You then shuffle the your feet in and out so that your knees come up to your chest and back out to the starting position. It gets its workout name due to the fact that it simulates climbing a mountain but you are flat on the floor.

These are tri-sets so after doing an exercise, rest only for about 30 seconds, and then go on to the next one immediately. Take a small 1-2 minute break in between tri-sets, then repeat it.

In spite of the fact that there are no direct abs exercises involved, this is one of the best abs exercises you can do. Do the workout and youll become believer too!
