How To Get Ripped Abs Without Crunches - Part 3 (Video)

Here’s the last part of the 3 part ab series.  This particular movement may be the most simple, but it’s probably also the most challenging…if you perform it correctly.  The problem with this exercise is that most people don’t do it properly and hence aren’t maximizing the potential this exercise can offer your body.  If you think you have strong abs…well then, this is a great litmus test to challenge your abs.  I’ll show you how you can progressively increase the difficulty using this anti-movement abdominal exercise to challenge even the strongest core.  Try this one out and see if you can stimulate your abs better than your traditional ab crunches and twists.

Please excuse the poor sound quality of this video…the A/C kicked in while filming the video and I wasn’t aware how loud it was!

(Note: If you’re having trouble viewing this video, please try watching it directly on my youtube channel)

 

This is a great finisher after a high intensity circuit training workout!

Try it out and let me know how your abs feel. 

Were you able to progress into the more difficult levels of the exercise?

I’d love to know what you think.  Please post your comments below.

looks great!  I can only guess what you were saying, because I could only clearly make out the audio right at the last when the air conditioner went off.

On all these exercizes that you have shared on videos 1-3, what are the recommended reps and sets etc.?  I have done the wheel exercizes and am awesomely sore.  I did about 3 sets of about 15 on the wheel on my knees and then standing a couple of days later
