Exercises for: Thick and Defined (Sixpack) Abs
1. Cable Crunch
The Cable Crunch allows you to put your abs under maximum pressure because of the resistance you can use. To build thick and strong abs you can practice going heavy on this exercise while maintaining good form. Tighten your core and flex your abs during the exercise. Make sure your arms and any other body part don't do much or any of the work!
2. Hanging Leg Raises
Make sure to flex and stretch the abs at a maximum level while not using your hip flexors and the power of your legs!
3. Bonus: Cable Wood Choppers
For the obliques. Make sure to create enough tension by stepping out a bit from the weight stack and flex your obliques as tightly as you can while twisting just your torso!
4. Bonus: One-Arm Serratus Cable Crunch
Exercise to strengthen your serratus anterior (the muscle next to your abs at the top). Flex them hard as you pull the cable down.
DISCLAIMER: In order to have your abs visible you need to be at a low enough body fat percentage. For most men it requires them to reach below 10% body fat on average!
