What guy does not want their abs to be visible?! Everybody has abs even though you can not see them on a few guys. The cause of a six pack not being visible is the fact that a layer of fat is covering the muscles in the stomach region. However, do not fear that because I want to bring up some of the best ab exercises for men.

I've discovered that doing crunches and sit ups won't do much for you. Surely they are known as some of the best ab exercises for men and sure they strengthen your stomach muscles, but they don't necessarily help you in acquiring a visible six pack. All these workouts ever do is strengthen your abs, not burn the fat off it.

Burning the Fat

Firstly, fat is unused energy. Fat is what we get when we take in more calories than we use up. The only way you are going to get rid of fat is by making use of all that energy. You are able to do it through special forms of exercises and through your diet.

The main source of fat storage is through the food and drinks we consume daily. And it does not help if we aren't very physical when we're not eating healthy. This is merely common sense and can be analysed by anybody.

So, the exercises I'm about to discuss with you may not seem to be your normal ab workouts. It may not seem to be anybody's version of the best ab exercises for men. However I shall clarify later the reason these workouts have been proven to work. And here they are:

• Front Squats (barbell with light weights)

• Renegade Dumbell Rows

• One Arm Snatches

• One Arm Swings

• Hanging Knee Raises

• Lying Leg Thrusts

• Reverse Crunches

How Best to do Them

The most effective way to do these exercises is if you combine them all into one routine and use them as a circuit training routine. This way you are burning fat and strengthening your core muscles.

Before I forget, the reason I advised exercises such as front squats and the next three is the fact that they not only target your abs, they target the other muscles needed for a good body. So when you do workouts that cause more muscles to work, extra energy will be needed thus you are burning extra calories.

Begin with one of the first four exercises on the list and do a workout from the last three. Do these entire exercises one after the other without resting for one set. You should only rest a maximum of two minutes after each set. Perform three sets.
