Ab exercies for beginners

I found this video that shows a few beginner ab exercises, and thought I'd share it with you all (which are great for me because I'm definitely a beginner): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35H7Bewv9No

The plank one is REALLY hard for me, probably because my upper body strength is shi*tty, so holding up my *giant* body is tough. By the end of the first 30 second repetition, my upper body was trembling.

Any one else know of any good beginner ab workouts?

    Squats and deadlifts
  • Planks and pushups are a great place to start. Much more functional than doing tons of situps.

    Sounds weird but FullOfWin very correct squats and deadlifs WILL improve your core strength and much much more. They are king when it comes to training efficiency
