Which exercises best address your 6 pack and your obliques and help with getting rid of stomach fat?
Most Effective 6 Pack Ab Exercises!
According to the American Council on Exercise (“ACE”) the exercise which best targets both the rectus abdominus (6 pack) and the obliques (waist) is called the bicycle.
Don’t forget, that to have a visible 6 pack, you need to get rid of your belly fat as well.
Ab exercises will not do this alone, you need the right diet, and also an exercise plan which targets core body strength along with some easy abdominal workouts.
This benefits your strength, your back, your health and your abdominal muscles.
After all, ab exercises on their own are a waste of time, because if you still have belly fat, your abs won’t show. They’ll simply push your belly fat out further and make you look fatter.

Ab Exercises: The Bicycle
According to ACE, their study showed that the bicycle is the most effective exercise for a 6 pack.
- Start in the lying position, back down
- Place hands beside head
- Push elbows forward
- Bend legs to 45 degrees
- Perform peddling motion
- On each movement touch right knee with left elbow and left knee with right elbow
- Breathing should be even and hold your stomach in at all times
- Repeat to complete a set of 16
- Repeat for 2 or 3 sets
Remember, no exercises focusing on one part of the body will get you 6 pack abs. Ab exercises as part of an overall health and fitness program are what is required.
You’ll need:
- Strength training (whole body core)
- Appropriate nutritious diet to fuel fat-burning power of your muscles
- Some cardio (but not traditional cardio)
