Medicine Ball Russian Twists
Medicine Ball Russian Twists are a great, well-known move for cutting the oblique abs, with the ball adding resistance to the classic bodyweight twist. Sit with your knees bent and heels on the floor (or lifted for more difficulty), leaning back slightly to engage your core. Holding a medicine ball with both hands, rotate side to side, tapping the ball near the floor on each side.
Crunches: Frog Legs (abs)
Crunches: Frog Legs changes your leg position to keep the abs challenged from a new angle and speed up results compared to a standard crunch. Lie on your back and bring the soles of your feet together with your knees dropped out to the sides, frog-style. Curl your shoulders and upper back off the floor, then lower back down slowly while keeping your feet together throughout.
Medicine Ball Pass-throughs
Medicine Ball Pass-throughs use resistance through a large range of motion, hitting both the upper and lower abs on the way to a faster six-pack. Sit with knees bent and feet lifted slightly off the floor, holding a medicine ball. Pass the ball under your knees from one hand to the other, then pass it back over the top, keeping your core braced and your feet off the ground throughout.
