...combined with the leg raises :pfft:

Or if your feeling really like pushin yourself - leg raises while balancing on swiss ball. Helps to find a rack or something to hold on to for balance.

Now this is an interesting one...

I've always believed that you couldn't target lower abs specifically, since they're actually the same muscle as upper abs (ie, a big sheet of muscle that runs top to bottom). Leg raises might incorporate more of the hip flexors than, say, crunches do, but they don't isolate the lower abs.

And yet, so many people do try to target lower abs. What's the argument for it?

[IronGame]

You cant isolate them completly just like you cant isolate upper chest, however you can deffinatly put more load on the particular fiber's that you want to target in both cases.

Can't isolate - Can target

for lower and upper abs my routine is

3 x 20 hanging leg raise

10 x 10 hanging leg raises (weighted)

3 x 15 cable crunches

i ususlly do them first before working out my main muscles.
