4 Quick Ab Workout Routines
1. 3 Minute Ab Workout
For the best results, Do this quick 3-minute ab workout 1-to-5 times per day, 1-to-3 days per week.
- If you can't feel it in your abs then raise your arms up higher until your abs tighten up and/or,
- Hold 10 pounds or more over your head.
Beginners:
- Lean back ½ way or until abs get tight.
- Hold onto your knee or the table for support.
- Have someone hold your feet or place your feet against a wall.
- Hold each rep for less than 10 seconds.
2. ONE Minute Ab Workout
- Important: DO NOT TOUCH the wall after you rollout during the first ½ of this ab workout. Rollout up to an inch away from the wall and hold for 30 seconds.
- Finish by doing as many ab rollouts as you can for the remaining 30 seconds. Lightly touch the wall without slamming into it for this part.
- You don't have to use a chair. Use a regular Ab Wheel or towels as shown in the video below ↓
- Too Easy? Start off farther away from the wall and/or Increase the workout time from 30-to-45 seconds for each part for a longer 90 second ab workout.
- Too Hard? Do the easier 90-second or 7-minute ab workout
- Keep your lower back flat or rounded upwards towards the ceiling. If you're unable to do this then start off closer to the wall but not so close you feel nothing in your abs.
You're actually falling into the wall.
- DO NOT move your arms too much out in front of you while keeping your heels flat on the floor.
- Then let your heels rise off the floor while your hips move forward & your arms move very little at the end of the movement.
- For the best results, Do this ab workout at least twice a week at least 3x a day.
3. 90 Second Ab Workout
Would you rather do this ↑ or a 1000 sit-ups?
- STOP DOING SIT-UPS. With normal sit-ups (NOT like in the video above) Your hip flexors do most of the work while your abs only work or contract real hard in the middle of a sit-up.
- In this 90 second ab workout your abs are doing all the work by contracting really hard to stabilize your midsection to keep you from falling back on the floor.
- For the best results, Do this ab workout at least twice a week at least 3x a day.
Once this Ab Workout gets too easy,
- Put your hands up higher but not so high your arms go behind your ears
- Place your feet closer to your butt.
- Hold a weight in your hands.
- Hold longer than 5 seconds.
4. 7 Minute Ab Workout
This 7 minute Ab workout is an easier version of the 1-Minute ab workout
- Rollout and stop about an inch away from NOT touching the wall.
- HOLD for 10 seconds. Tightly squeeze your abs to keep the chair in place without sliding into the wall.
- Then perform 5-to-15 reps. Rest 30 seconds & repeat.
- Keep your back flat or rounded upwards towards the ceiling as you rollout.
- Remember, an Ab wheel, weighted bar, clothes or anything allowing you to glide, roll or slide can be used instead of a chair.
- Do this workout 1-to-3x per day at least twice a week.

Im 5"10.5 (179 CM) male age 26 at a weight of 137 pounds (62 KG). Previously I was 90 KG 3 years ago. Anyway I lost the weight in February 10 2014 with diet+exercise and gave up junk food and sugary drinks & have now successfully maintained it for over a year now without any weight regain tendency! Something that I am happy about.
But I have no visible abs at all, but a flat stomach. Even though the skinfold caliper test says I have a Body Fat 5.78% with both digital and manual skinfold caliper since last year.
I was wondering whether just doing crunches would indeed build a 6 pack and how long would it take, few weeks, few months? Or do I need to rebuild muscle by incorporating weight lifting as well, since I may have lost some lean mass due to the diet and cardio.
Also do I need to eat at a caloric surplass when doing crunches to build the abs?
Many thanks,
Rahul
