I have dropped almost 25 lbs and my abs are finally noticeable. I ALMOST have my 4 pack back. Although i have a little bit of fat i still want gone, what are some good ab workouts that target lower and obliques? I've been adding a lot more plank work to my strength trainer. I heard those were really good for abs.

    Tony Hortons One-on-One sereis has ARX2 its 40 minutes of abcrushing work, but he talks alot so you can probably do it in about 25 minutes. The original Ab Ripper X is P90X is about 16 minutes and is pretty hard core. There are some great ab routines in TurboFire and Insanity. Also they have a 90 day program devoted to abs called RevAbs. the trainer Brett Hoebel is on the biggest loser this year.

    the Ab Ripper X video of the P90X series is 16 minutes of ab-hell! Works wonders on my lower belly area!

    I will echo the P90X Ab Ripper-X routine. I just started P90X this Monday and have done one cycle of ARX and it was the hardest 16 minutes of my life! My abs are in horrible shape and I can't do half of the routines and the other half I can only do so many but I hope to get better as I gain strength. At this point, I hate ARX, but I hope to learn to love it. It does what it is designed to do, but I know I have a long way to go before I can do the whole routine and keep up...I got all of the time in the world.

    It targets more than the upper abs...it targets lower abs, obliques, and even the glutes and quads...

    At this point, the One on One with Tony Horton Ab Ripper routine is a pipe dream...I can't imagine doing 40 minutes of ab work at this point. 16 minutes is enough!
