Ab Exercises That Work Better Than Crunches!

Ab exercises like crunches, leg raises, or other ab moves that deliver minimal results have very little to do with ab fat loss and sculpting lean abs. The best way to lose ab fat is to incorporate ab exercises that work the entire body while burning loads of calories during and after your ab workout. That along with a healthy diet and interval cardio gets the best results. Add these ab exercises to your full body routine 1-2 times a week. Perform 15-20 reps of each. Rest then repeat.
