Hanging leg raise – This is in my opinion the most effective exercise for the lower abdominals and really helps get that classic v line that everyone wants. I usually do 3-5 sets of around 15-20 repetitions on this exercise.

Abdominal pull down – The reason this is such an effective exercise is because unlike a lot of bodyweight ab exercises, with this you can actually up the weight on the cable machine to lower the rep range. Unlike crunches where you end up doing 30-40 before you even feel the burn.

Woodchopper – Although this targets mainly your obliques, it still hits your abs nicely. Remember your abdominals and obliques link on together so to get a great torso you will need to train both.

Double crunch –  The double crunch will target both your upper and lower area of your abdominals and also help increase your around core strength.

The plank – The exercise that everyone neglects, the plank is classic exercise which engages not just your abs but your entire core.
