The Best Lower Abs Exercises Is No Lower Abs Exercises

Ever wondered what the best lower abs exercises were? Many have. Most miss one thing, though: abs exercises don’t define the lower abdominals.

Surprised? Let me introduce you to Dexter Jackson, a famous bodybuilder:

Here’s the kicker: Dexter doesn’t train his abs.

In The Pre-Contest Bible (published in 2004), Larry Pepe interviewed 33 top bodybuilders about their pre-contest training and nutritional strategies. That’s where Dexter Jackson reveals he does no lower abs exercises.

What’s his secret? Does he uses the best lower abs exercises?

No, he doesn’t. To define the lower abs, you must be very lean. Dexter lifts weights, does cardio, eats less, eats plenty of protein, and probably uses steroids and other chemicals (I recommend you don’t) to do so. He gets very lean, and his lower abs show. Voilà.

Or just get my six pack abs training program.

Note that although Dexter Jackson doesn’t train his lower abs, most bodybuilders do. I used him to illustrate that getting a six pack (or eight pack) is possible—even without lower abs exercises—when you do the right things. I still recommend you train your abs for strength and definition.
