Upper abs workout

Look, we all know by now that no amount of ab training is going to chisel out that sort after six-pack, alone.

Yes, we all have abdominal muscles, but how visible they are is mostly dependent on your body-fat levels.

That being said, ab training definitely has it's place- and if you're gunning for that elusive eight-pack or just want to bolster your core, lower ab workouts could be the missing link in your training arsenal. Though just one muscle – the rectus abdominis – runs down your abdomen, most abs movements primarily activate the ‘upper’ section, making your otherwise impressive rig a little top-heavy in terms of strength.

Not only are lower abs tricky to target, they’re even harder to show off.

Your body is predisposed to storing excess fat in that area – from an evolutionary standpoint, belly fat is part of your body’s energy stockpiling system – so making those muscles pop takes serious dedication (and mostly comes down to your diet).

However, there’s more than a washboard stomach at stake.
