I know the abs are made in the kitchen. But what's the best

Planks and plank variations
Decline sit-ups
Leg lifts

Best time is usually after you've finished your routine

Running also works your core a lot more than you'd expect

Related question. I don't really have a set ab day or even do to many ab isolation exercises. I do the big 3 compounds and other stuff, and do a basic ppl workout with 1 set for an ab isolation.

Should I do more core stuff, or no? I don't really care about having abs, but I'm worried about my core being too weak in the long run and it eventually sabotaging my lifts

planks
ab wheel

>But what's the best ab excersises to get abs to show when at a low body fat %?

they will show

we all have abs or else our bodies would just collapse

making them a little big bitter takes almost 0 effort cause its a relatively small muscle

yeah but they're not showing as much as i want, so i want some good ab isolation excersises

This is basically what I do, I have yet to cut hard enough to see defined abs so I have the same question

>decline sit ups
These are fucking intense. Especially when you do them weighted.

Pull up bar hanging leg raises work best for me.

some decline crunches, russian twists and hanging leg raises are my favorites

weighted crunches on a ball
3-4x6-8
2x a week
be in a caloric surplus

that's it

The only time you should worry about when to do abs and back extension like excersises, is when you have to do deadlifts and squats. Always do them after on that day so you dont compromise your core and end up in snapville. Else you can do them whenever you feel like if you are doing a arm/shoulder day or something. When it comes to excersise choice for abs, dont worry do whatever you feel like works for you, as long as you dont use your hipflexors to much

just buy ab-zap

I used to do them with a medicine ball, tossing it against the wall/to a partner
'course, then I was a hungry skelly who ran all the time and did abs 3x a week
