Ab Exercises Ranked (BEST TO WORST!)

- There are many different ab exercises, but which are the best of the best and which exercises for abs should you avoid? In this video, I’m breaking down fifteen 6 pack ab exercises to come up with the ones you should focus your effort on and the ones that you are likely better off avoiding all together.

The key to this selection of movements is that they are all popular abs exercises for men or slight variations of them.
Likely, you are doing or have done many of these at some point in your ab training. The key is determining whether or not you have wasted some time on exercises that aren’t giving you the type of results you are looking for.
We start at the bottom of the ranking chart with the worst ab exercises for men and women
Here we have the basic plank, russian twists, dumbbell side bend, lying leg raises and the bicycle crunch. You may be surprised at the inclusion of some of these movements but there is a reason why each of them are mentioned at the bottom. The criteria for selecting and ranking these exercises for abs in this way is based on the need for equipment, ability of the exercise to scale to all ability levels, danger of the movement, or the simple ineffectiveness of the choice considering that there are much better alternatives.
When it comes to the Russian Twist, I actually like the exercise. The problem is, it is probably the most commonly misperformed exercise in the gym for abs. Too often, people do not rotate at all on the exercise and instead tap their hands side to side. This turns this move into nothing more than an isometric with very little benefit to your six pack.
Likewise, the bicycle crunch is regarded as not only one of the most popular ab exercises but one that is most capable of giving you six pack abs if you do it. The problem once again is, due to this high praise many many people do it. However, most do it incorrectly. The lack of rotation at the shoulders is evident and it turns what should be a good move into one that is commonly done wrong.
The obvious choices for the bottom of the rankings are the dumbbell side bend and the lying leg raise. Both of these add unnecessary stress to the low back by either overworking the quadratus lumborum or the hip flexors. The goal of any best ab exercise is to be sure it’s actually working the abs primarily. Neither of these do that.
The basic plank is one of my least favorite exercises for abs since it is too easy and remedial for almost all doing it. You need to find a version of the movement that is challenging enough to knock you out of being able to do it in 90 seconds or less.
Moving up the chart from the worst to the best ab exercises, we have the better category. Here we have the hanging leg raise and the ab wheel rollout. These are actually good movements as well but they have major limitations that renders them less globally successful in helping everyone that does them. For instance, if your grip strength is weaker than your abs then you are likely to have to come down from the bar before your abs fatigue on the hanging leg raise.
Up the scale even further we have the better still category. Here you find the hanging knee raise, hanging corkscrew and the single sided slow carry. The hanging knee raise is an improvement on the hanging leg raise since it minimizes the tendency of the hip flexors to become too dominant in the movement.
The single sided slow carry is an amazing way to build up your lateral pillar strength of your core and abs. You will see that in order to keep your shoulders level you have to contract the opposite side oblique hard. The extended time under tension by walking slow is going to add an extra demand to your abs.
The almost best category gives us some ab exercises that are amazing. The swiper works the lower abs while ensuring that you lift your pelvis instead of your legs. The gymnast tuck is a home option that also hits the lower abs hard. The levitation crunch works the upper abs with a minimal ab exercise that anyone can do, and the side bridge twist involves rotation as well.
The best ab exercise however is the sliding tuck. This bodyweight ab exercise can be done with just some socks on a slick floor. The key is to not pull with the hip flexors but rather to hinge the pelvis into posterior tilt with the strength of the abs. Add a slight turn at the bottom and even pull in the knees if you desire more lower ab exercises.

How many times per week do you recommend it?
bro i need to care my neck. i have hernia. so can you help me to build my sixpacks and any risk for my neck. for ex your 2nd excersize makes so much pressure for neck
Hey personally the plank is great but if you have mastered plank, I suggest you use a weighted vest.
Paloff press??
I think 🤔 JEFF crossed out the "Russian Twists" because it has the word, "Russian" in it. 🃏 😆 🤣 😂
Hell yeah *slowly watches all my exercises on my list get red Xs*
If u doin them right, its ok right ?
@@glitterbabyangel7104 well yh but if you incorporate some of the other exercises later on, you’ll see the benefit a bit more in building the abdominals and core strength.
they’re bad because most people do them wrong
Hahaha I agree.

The common argument against a higher power is how was god created but that answers a question with a question and doesnt answer the original question with how did the world/universe start.
God created time and time has a beginning, middle, and end and so god has no beginning.
recently I have been hearing this voice, and it says it is a higher power
It told me to call people to believe in it, just imagine
I was agnostic before and believed in the big bang. But if you think about it how did the big bang start and thus create the universe?
It also said it revealed all the main religions (except Satanism) so I believe it is the Abrahamic god
Also it told me about the concept of blessing, and such I turned off my alarm (also i trust in god to wake me up) and now sleep an average of an hour a day or so. I also eat a few bites every couple days and dont lost weight.
You can do this too, im not special. Just trust in god, the one god that sent down all religions. And turn off your alarm and you will sleep less. Eventually you can get down to less than an hour.
Think about it, if god exists he created the whole earth and space, cant he make you sleep less? If you go from sleeping 8 hours a day and getting tired if you sleep 6 hours, to having blessing in your sleep and sleeping less (4 or less hours, personally it gets shorter over time for me) it proves a god exists to me.
Please i beg you just believe there might be a god and live your daily lives. He just wants us to be good people.
It will raise you a lot in paradise if you believe and there is no harm in believing in the one god. You can even still believe in your own gods no offence but I just want to spread the word.
Also if you try to get blessing and start sleeping less, be sure to tell your family and friends for their own good :) invitation to god is a great deed
And let them know to share it as well to friends and family
Thank you and have a great day 😊
I'd be shocked if Face Pulls are not the winner of this.
I think it’s because people tend to use too much of their hip flexors on that exercise

Plot twist, thats how he sleeps.
Thanks for the videos. I am 52 and still pushing forward with major back injuries and I have other issues with my joints as well but due to your guidance I am able to properly train my body and keep on going while protecting my body. Some of my joints are getting relief now because I am doing things more properly. Thanks for your body safe approach, it’s so helpful. I have all your body part exercise rankings in my lists. Tnx again.
Hi, as someone that had lower back injury in the past , I have found that 2 of your exercises are a perfect fit for me :
Single sided slow carry and the swiper.
Thanks and keep up the good work.
This is good to know! I’m just starting out, but I have a very sensitive back.
Please do this with all muscle groups if possible. This is pure gold.

Could not agree more. I love seeing tier lists of what’s good and what’s better than good. Even the Russian twists my gym teacher recommended and I feel like this guy should be my fitness teacher.
Keep em coming please!! Great video!
@@AlejandroW90 Russian twists are good when done correctly. They’re just very difficult to do correctly.
@@aaronharman5431 They are in no way hard to perform correctly, its just that no one does it. (or rather knows that they are doing it wrong)
The biggest problems i have with stuff like the plank and side bridge is that i get tired in my shoulders before i feel anything in my abs.
wrong angle and your shoulder hurts for a week. wrong foot angle and your ankle hurts for a week too haha
extend your arms further infront of you. i promise you you will feel it in your abs then. the further you extend the more intense it will become. your welcome :)
I cannot do the side plank. My shoulders cant
My back (iam 16)
I used to kill planks for 5 minutes plus when I was younger in the military, but 26 years later and back problems, I just do the gravity crunches which concentrates more on the abs without the work of other muscles... but then again, other ab exercises works other muscle groups so why not? if you're physical condition such as injury does not stop you from doing these exercises, why not hit two birds in one stone? If you're shoulder tires out before your abs, stop and continue with ab crunches... I'm not an expert, but that's what I would do...
I agree on the most of the worst exercises. I can do most of them without a problem when I was younger, now 45 with back injuries, I'm limited to very few, but managed to keep my ab strength up to par... I wished the military stops these exercises that injures soldiers farther down their career...
Fantastic excersises explained logically which produce significant results. I’m 68 and now have managed to develop a noticeable 6 pack thanks to you 👍
this guy have muscles i didnt even know they exist

If it makes you feel any better, he said some of them are the worst only because they’re not done properly So if you can do the correct motions then you should be good (p.s. I Love your pfp 😁)

So helpful. Thank you! I did the Swipers today, really feel that core ripping.

Same.
well, i liked the video to. But where did he use science?
He just used common sense.
If you want to have science behind it, you should watch people like Jeff Nippard. They introduce you to studys etc.

@@mnassif3809 who tf asked
Totally 😂😂😂
@@mnassif3809 HAIL SATAN!!
@@JR-vt7rb why bro
The problem I have with this video is most of the exercises you approve of, many people cant do at all. It is our job as trainers and teachers to help people do these exercises right to bump them into a better category. I would never start out a new client just coming in to exercise a hanging leg raise.
As for the Plank. It is basic for good reason. A good plank is the starting point of a good push-up, good mountain climber and yes,even the one that is in your “Best” Category, the sliding tuck. It is more about starting out with the most basic and adding layers on to make it more challenging. I would never start someone new on Sliding Tucks with out teaching them the basic plank first.
In conclusion, I can see this video discouraging people from starting to exercise. Some of the comments I have read have even stated “Well I guess I should not be doing Russian twists.” Rather then phrase these exercises as good or bad, teach people how to do it right and break it down for them. Because most people, especially new, will not be able to do all of these much more advanced hanging exercises.
I could not agree more. I really love planks for example because it's a compound exercise, basically just love an excise that does not require gym equipments. But this man just discourage beginners to avoid basic ones before advancing.
He specified in the video that planks were not good if you could go for a minute and a half or more. This implies that they're fine for beginners, and that Jeff is talking to people while been exercising for at least a few months.
@@alecbader7433 First I want to start out with a disclaimer that this is not meant to belittle you or talk down to you in anyway. Everything I say below is with respect and just trying to prove a point. I just want to say this because written words can be lost in context and I don't mean to sound like an asshole or hostile in any way. On to the point!
Though I get what you are saying about the plank, the name of the video and the fact it gets a big red X through it contradicts your point to him implying he means it is for beginners. The big red X carries more weight. I know this seems like a nitpick, but really, it is all about how it is being presented. The presentation should not contradict what is being said.
As to your point about this video gearing more towards people that have been exercising for a few months. His argument specifically with the russian twists is its bad because most people do it wrong. Then teach people to do it right. It is our job as trainers to make sure people do these exercises correctly to get the most out of them. If a trainer cannot teach their clients to do an exercise correctly, it is not the exercise that is the problem. It is the trainer (or the client depending on their limitations. in which case, provide a different option).
Again, my main problem with this video is that most of the exercises in the "Best" category, are exercises many will not be able to do even after a few months or even years of training, do to physical limitations, whether that be weight, injuries etc. If this was an "AB progression" video rather than a "best to worst" video, than it would be much more accurate.
Teaching exercise is all about providing options and progressions. Because with the many injuries and limitations people have, making a best to worst list just limits these people even more. Now I wont deny that there are better exercises than others. But in my opinion, this list just is not accurate. Especially when the excuse is "I can't teach people to do it correctly, therefore it is a bad exercise"
@@mpkonsko fair
@@mpkonsko I understand what you’re saying and I somewhat agree with you. Although he does in fact say how to perform the Russian Twist correctly. If you listen to what he says when talking about the correct form of exercise (1:38) he states that if you twist your elbows behind your back, it becomes a good exercise. The problem is that people just tap their hands on the side and don’t actually twist their upper body.
Was looking for a bench for hyper back extensions, sit ups, and flat bench. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx1N3gatJfHIxCsI2TbcOH1-k8v-EDJ40N Was about to buy a similar product from other manufacturer when I saw this one for less. Glad I chose this one, as it's very solid/stable, no movement whatsoever. Incline is easy to adjust as well. As others have said the plastic foot pads are a poor design as they are not attached. Also like others, I think it should be a few inches longer for a flat bench, but it's workable. Assembly instructions were poor, with one step being completely and obviously incorrect. I did get a communication from the seller that there were new instructions, but I had already assembled it. Overall it's a great buy, very happy with it.

I've been in superhuman shape while in the military and all those exercises help out in one way or another. Every exercise works a different group of muscles and when you get good at one try a new one and it'll be hard even when you think it targets the same muscle group. It's like when you think you're in shape for basketball and go play soccer but realize it's difficult.

Excellent! Please do with all exercises. It is helpful to watch your body as one can actually see the muscles working. Thanks for all you do!
These videos are awesome!! Your thorough instructions and explanations eliminate the fear of injury, especially for a senior trying to improve balance and strength after many years of inactivity. So sad these things aren't taught in schools to be utilized throughout life!!

Your videos are insanely good. Really, you’ve helped me in understanding on how to focus on each exercise you display. Your videos would be perfect if they were just a bit more organized. If you add time stamps for your video so we can go back to specific exercises this would be a real save for us. Like how other videos break up their videos into sections then I can click the section to find a specific talking point or exercise you are explaining. Really, great videos. Thank you.
I think the amazing thing about this channel is how they consistently come up with new and informative content. How do these people never run out of ideas? Long live Athlean X

You can do this too, im not special. Just trust in god, the one god that sent down all religions. And turn off your alarm and you will sleep less. Eventually you can get down to less than an hour.
Think about it, if god exists he created the whole earth and space, cant he make you sleep less? If you go from sleeping 8 hours a day and getting tired if you sleep 6 hours, to having blessing in your sleep and sleeping less (4 or less hours, personally it gets shorter over time for me) it proves a god exists to me.
Please i beg you just believe there might be a god and live your daily lives. He just wants us to be good people.
It will raise you a lot in paradise if you believe and there is no harm in believing in the one god. You can even still believe in your own gods no offence but I just want to spread the word.
Also if you try to get blessing and start sleeping less, be sure to tell your family and friends for their own good :) invitation to god is a great deed
And let them know to share it as well to friends and family
Thank you and have a great day 😊

Jeff’s best abs exercise - face pulls
Hi :) please keep reading till the end
The common argument against a higher power is how was god created but that answers a question with a question and doesnt answer the original question with how did the world/universe start.
God created time and time has a beginning, middle, and end and so god has no beginning.
recently I have been hearing this voice, and it says it is a higher power
It told me to call people to believe in it, just imagine
I was agnostic before and believed in the big bang. But if you think about it how did the big bang start and thus create the universe?
It also said it revealed all the main religions (except Satanism) so I believe it is the Abrahamic god
Also it told me about the concept of blessing, and such I turned off my alarm (also i trust in god to wake me up) and now sleep an average of an hour a day or so. I also eat a few bites every couple days and dont lost weight.

Jeff: wrong
This is such a brilliant and useful channel.
The muscle maestro delivers once again!
This sounds like a great series Jeff! Do it for all parts starting with leg exercises.
I like using the glider discs for the plank tucks. Or TRX plank crunches. No lower back pain and includes the stability of the entire core and has free range so you can hit rotation and target obliques. Great video!
Oh yeah! Those sliding tucks are awesome, easy to do and feel great!
Das ist das beste Kanal ! Dankeschön!❤
Awesome video content. It opened my eyes and made me adjust my technique to do the exercise in a the way you described it is meant to be done. The result is amazing, thank you so much and hope to see more videos on your channel 🙏🏻
This man has almost more subscribers then the UFC. Thank you for all this knowledge. I’ve always been in shape for a better part of 20 years but your videos have taken my physique to another level. Thank you !!!!!!!
Cheers, great content as always
I love when you show the Best of the Best!
Jeff think about everything so we avoid future injuries and are more efficient thanks Jeff..
Hey Jeff, could you do a video on glaucoma and workouts? Turns out resistance training can spike intraocular pressure that can damage the optic nerve. It would be great if you can talk about how glaucoma patients can continue with their fitness goals without causing further damage.
Some of the exercises are based on level fitness, 😢which is based on individual core strength to begin with. Depending on where you are in your fitness journey. The “best” category is obviously harder then the first one’s crossed out in the beginning. Thank you for showing how to execute properly. Your amazing!!

I hope you’re doing doing all body parts. Watching these 2 videos has made me change up my workouts. Now I need shoulders, back, biceps, triceps, forearms, and legs. These workouts are going help me out a lot
Thanks Jeff. Excellent information. Now I am searching a video about: Abs Machine Exercises (Worst to Better!)
Literally the best fitness RUclips channel out there
Jeff puts some American sanctions on the Russian twist
Lol
You don’t know how apt that is right now
This is fantastic thorough info! I really appreciate this video! The first video I watched from you was about shoulder and neck injury which really helped me. I appreciate your videos so much! Excited to subscribed and see more!
As a beginner this is helping my workout to be corrected thank you.
This video was actually really helpful
The last one is awesome. I totally forgot about it. I used to do it on a slide board and it killed me. Thanks for this video Jeff.
As far as hanging stuff I highly recommend it if your grip strength is weak. Your upper body strength for any pulling activities is useless if you don't have grip strength. Maybe start your ab workout with it until your hands are done and then go to the floor work.
The last one is great, yet difficult to perform. Imo you run the best with crunches.
@@kleina126 I've done crunches my whole life and they don't compare. They only tone and don't build mass. They're great if you're a fighter looking for hard abs but if you want a washboard stomach you have to shorten the distance between your sternum and pelvis. Crunches sort of do that but not really.
@@casz7098 there is a ton to optimize, if you are "done" with normal crunches. Head down crunches and so on...
@@kleina126 yeah crunches are great for toning.
I love crunches and sliding tucks.
The Ab wheel rollouts, TRX tucks, flutter kicks, reverse crunch corkscrews and BOSU crunch w medball are my top picks for ab obliteration.
Yer a genius Jeff! I'm a senior and am making MUCH better progress than the pre-Covid 5 days a week at the gym before work. My girlfriend can't get enough of my new form. It was "okay" before.
Wow ! Excellent and motivating video. Thanks a lot!

hi Jeff,
Your videos about ranked exercises are bomb. Are you going to make more for lower body, back and biceps ? It would be great. Thank you !
i'm doing barbell training and have been looking for movements that work the same movement patterns as the major lifts, but with the resistance going in the reverse directions. i noticed how all of my upper body exercises are balanced - dips:rows, ohp:pullups - but squats and rdls dont have reverse movements. knee raises/reverse squats are the obvious compliment to the squat, but the equivalent compliment for rdls wasnt as easy to see. thanks to this vid, i realized that the gymnast tuck is like a perfect counter for the rdl as a movement, and as a bonus it can be assisted (on an assisted dip machine) or weighted with a chain belt+plates. i have my critiques of jeff and his penchant for limitless exercise variety as it creates option paralysis for the viewer, but on the other hand i actually really appreciate him showing me this particular exercise, so imo there is definitely merit to what he does. i think the tuck is really helping me correct some things in my body and after just 2 sessions, it is actually bringing me some serious pain relief to my core and back. i can feel unused core muscles awakening, spasms loosening, alignment shifting, and pressure coming off of nerves and dear god it feels so good. thanks so much jeff.
You're awesome. Thank you for these videos man
Come on Jeff, we all know the best ab exercise is the face pull. You won't trick us this time.
Edit 1: He made a slight typo. Where it reads "Sliding tuck" he clearly intended to spell "Face pulls".
Not doing facepulls on abs day is killing your gains
I know this is a joke but face pulls can't work your abs but still a great exercise as Jeff says all the time.
@@ryancampbell5246 Says who? I could do facepulls lying on a bench using my abs just as easily as I can standing up you just have to get a little creative
@@msihcs8171 True but doing regular face pulls puts no muscle tension on the abs.
Nope
Your drawing of a green star is like Squidward's drawing of a circle
You are right, how did not most people realize that but the good thing is, I have been doing the good ones.
I started to do the ab wheel rollouts and they really work.
Ab Wheel is an excellent way to work the abs.
It's way better than the 'better' category Jeff has put it in. It's one of the best.
The plus is that is works also a lot of muscles in the upper body at the same time.
Triceps, lats, trapezius, posterior shoulders.
I could not be happier to see planks get that red X.
Same. Gleefully crossing that off my ab day.
Facts bro lmao I hated those and now I have a good reason to drop them
@@luuttaja If you're having trouble doing planks, surely you're still getting benefits from doing planks? I think he X'd them because once you find them too easy, they are no longer beneficial.
@@isaacsmith3998 It’s not that I have troubles doing them it’s that they’re boring and I just don’t like them
I found Pilates really helped me with core, for me it was a good way to generate some serious intensity and tension especially in the lower abs and deep core/pelvic floor, I really learnt a lot from this video and channel too though :) thanks.
Best ab exercise video on RUclips
Thanks, I like the exercise and the production.
Hi Jeff,
Loved the video. Really enjoyed it as it was really useful to learn about the best & worst ab exercises. Could you do the same thing for Shoulder and chest excerises.
Massive thank you for making the video.
Cheers,
Billy
Thank you for this awesome content. You do great at narrating what you’re doing but, sometimes a few details aren’t very clear to a blind listener as myself. On the off chance that you read this, it would be doubly wonderful if you could keep someone like me in mind in your descriptions. I already understand a healthy portion of what you’re doing though and I’m thankful for that anyway. Much love from Egypt.
Great work!!
You are a great trainer and therapist
Im 51 years old I would like to see you do this with chest,arm bicep an tricep, leg, shoulder, an back excerises so I can get the best results from my workouts for man of my age
Jeff doesn't move his body on a sliding tuck, he moves the whole house.
It would seem that way from your perspective but if you would watch from space, you would find that it is not the house that folds but the planet as a whole. This is causing massive ripples all the way through the earth's core which results in massive earthquakes on the other side in Japan and Indonesia.
