5 Minute Weighted Abs Exercises For Advanced

5 Minute Weighted Abs Exercises For Advanced

I’m gonna take you through a really quick ab intensive workout which contains 5 weighted abs exercises. So we’re gonna get those abdominal muscles, obliques and lower back on this one and we’re gonna use weight for this.

You can do all these exercises without weight if you want to, otherwise you can use a dumbbell or a kettlebell. In fact you can use whatever you have and it has any kind of weight to it to make it that much more difficult and to build a little extra strength to those abs.

We don’t necessarily need to do a warm up for these weighted abs exercises because all the noves are relatively slow motions.

Weighted Abs Exercises

Let’s start with the first one which is gonna be a weighted toe touch.

1. Weighted Toe Touch

Lay flat on your back with the legs straight up in the air. Grab your weight and be careful not to drop it on yourself. Now crunch up nice and tight and try to touch your toes with the weight. You need to keep your shoulders off the mat all the time. Try to keep your legs locked out and feel your hamstrings stretched. Perform this weighted abs exercise for one minute.

2. Russian Twists

For this weight abs exercise you need to get up on your tailbone, lean back with your arms straight and rotate left and right. Of course you need to grab the weight before starting this exercise. The further you lean back, the harder it’s gonna be. The more weight you use, the more you’re gonna feel in your obliques. Do these Russian twists for a minute straight.

Stand in a push-up position with the weight in front of you. Rotate to your left side, grab the weight, hold it on your right hip and dip down your hips. Get back up and then to the starting position. Now rotate to the other side and do the same moves. You need to press your hip up as high as you can on each side.
