Best exercises for Abs?????

IMHO, "push-back" (like push back away from the feeding trough) , aka = Proper diet to change your body composition to the point where your genetics allow you to exhibit your abs (assuming your genetics support such exhibition) ...

Essentially, dropping your body's fat percentage through diet.

Do you have a diet recommendation? I try not to eat over 1200 calories a day but obviously that’s not working. Lol. Is there a specific diet you think will work? Foods I need to stay away from completely?

Doing ab work does not reduce fat around the midsection...you can't spot reduce fat. If your midsection is primary fat stores, it's a first on, last off proposition. The midsection is primary fat stores for most men and many women.

As for ab and core work to build and strengthen, I like compound lifting movements, hanging leg raises, planks, and the ab wheel.

Honestly, I got the best ab workout in my life through a bout of Bronchitis that had be coughing non-stop for a solid 3 weeks!! Not that I would recommend that to anyone though.

That being said, I've lately been using a Smartphone app from Athlean-X called "Six Pack Promise". It's got quick, easy to follow (but challenging to do) daily workouts that take 5-7 minutes a day (with rest days thrown in for a 6 week program).

There are other Smartphone apps which I've tried as well, SchvagerFM has an entire series of different ones, but I've found this one to have the best design.
