These ab exercises for women will help you achieve max muscle activation.
By Jaclyn EmerickGetting a strong midsection takes the right mix of ab workouts for women that work together to tone the entire area. And no one knows better which formula works than Michele Olson, Ph.D., a professor of exercise physiology at Auburn University at Montgomery.
You can trust her: For nearly 30 years, Olson has studied countless abs exercises in a lab using electromyography (EMG) technology to measure the amount of muscle activated by each. The resulting superworkout she crafted exclusively for Shape includes the all-stars—ab workouts for women that scored off the charts for firming the most muscle fibers per rep.
The best part? Instead of cranking out dozens of sit-ups, we're about to make-under your ab routine. For the first two weeks, do two to three circuits of the first four moves. They're not just lower ab workouts for women; Together they hit all four ab muscle groups. 'You'll reach your goal faster if your workout builds on intensity and total reps done over time,' Olson explains. These moves get a little harder and the reps get higher for week three, plus there's an exercise added in. Same for week four, except this time you'll add two more moves to your session. By that week, expect two to three circuits of seven moves with the max challenge and reps. No sweat—you'll be ready for the next-level ab workout for women.
But regardless of how tight your core is, even the best abs workouts for women can't erase fat that lies above (subcutaneous) or below them (visceral fat). Those you'll have to tackle separately—and according to Olson's research, the best belly fat-targeter method is Tabata intervals. Maximum-effort cardio intervals raise your level of adrenaline, the fight-or-flight hormone that's the secret sauce to burning fat. (Related: 7 Reasons You're Not Losing Belly Fat)
How it works:
Toning: Do the toning moves in this abs workout for women in order for the indicated number of reps and sets three days a week on alternate days. Pay close attention to how the exercises and weight of the dumbbells required progress each week. In week four, when the abs routine is most challenging, do it just twice a week.
Tabata drills: Do Olson's Tabata-inspired cardio workout (BTW, here's the diff between Tabata and HIIT) three times a week: Start with 10 minutes of moderately hard, steady-state cardio of your choice, then do a four-minute round. Complete that steady cardio-and-Tabata combo three times. That's 42 minutes total. In week four, do the Tabata drills just twice a week.
