🔥Training of the Press & Oblique Abdominal Muscles
🚨 How should you train your abs? Simple: tackle one plane of motion a day. Add these mini-workouts to your existing routine, or do them separately.

1. ✅ Clean Up Your Diet
The first step to finding your six pack is to clean up your diet. If you want to see your ab muscles, you need to decrease your overall body fat. Get rid of processed “junk” foods, sugars and processed carbs. Eat more vegetables, nuts, and fruits, organic lean protein and healthy fats, such as olive oil, fish oils, and avocados. Try eating several small meals each day and avoid late night snacking. Eat some protein for breakfast, lots of vegetables, fruits, and fiber and drink water rather than calorie-laden beverages.

2. ✅ Add High Intensity Training
If you want to get fit faster and burn more calories in less time, don’t spend all your time in the so-called fat-burning zone. Instead, add some High Intensity Training (HIT) to your workouts a couple times each week.
According to the American College of Sports Medicine, you can burn more calories in less time with short, high intensity exercise.
You can also boost your overall cardiovascular fitness with this type of training. Be sure to slowly ramp up your intensity, however, or you could wind up with an injury.​

3. ✅ Perform Abdominal and Core Exercises

Once you’ve reduced the layer of body fat to the point where you can find your six pack, performing specific ab and core strengthening exercises will make them much more visible. Once you understand how to safely exercise your abs, you’ll find core exercises are most effective when the torso works as a solid unit and both front and back muscles contract at the same time, and you perform multi-joint movements.
4. ✅ Do The Plank Exercise
🚨 How to do it:
The plank can help you find your six-pack. Learn how to do it properly and maintain a straight line from ears to toes. Hold it for 10 seconds and over time build up to 30, 45 or 60 seconds.
5. ✅ Do Bicycle Crunches
The bicycle crunch is another great core exercise that engages many muscles at once to help work the core in every possible way. Add this to your ab routine if you don’t already do it.

6. ✅ Do The Vertical Knee Raise
The Vertical Knee Raise (or Captain’s Chair) exercise does require some gym equipment, so check around your health club and give it a try.
7. ✅ Do Crunches on an Exercise Ball
These days everyone probably has an exercise ball at home, so there is no reason not to try this exercise.

8. ✅ Play Sports That Build a Six Pack
One of the best ways to get six pack abs is by playing sports that burn the fat and engage the core naturally. Athletes who play sports that naturally engage both the upper and lower body in powerful, repetitive movements have a great six pack as a by-product of playing a sport they love. Why not get your six pack while having fun?
