Ready to take your ab training up a level? This advanced ab HIIT workout combines challenging leg lift and V-up variations that demand serious control and strength. If you've mastered the basics, this is your next step.
The Workout
Format
- 40 seconds work per move
- 20 seconds rest between moves
- 3 rounds total
- Rest 1 minute between rounds
The Moves
1. Single Leg V-Up
Targets abs with an extra balance challenge. Alternate legs each rep to keep your core working overtime.
2. Straddle Leg Lift
Works lower abs and hip flexors with a wider range of motion. Keep your legs wide and controlled throughout the movement.
3. Straight Legged Hip Raise
Builds lower ab strength and spinal stability. Lift your hips straight up towards the ceiling, keeping your legs vertical.
Why Progression is Key
If you always stick to easy ab moves, your progress will stall. Advanced variations:
- Increase strength and control by demanding more from your muscles
- Build definition faster through greater muscle activation
- Challenge coordination and mobility for a more athletic core
Try It Now
Run this advanced ab HIIT workout for three rounds. In under 10 minutes, you'll push your abs to new levels of strength and endurance.
Tip: Don't let momentum do the work - slow, controlled lifts are the secret to progress. If you can't maintain form, drop back to the earlier workouts in this series.
