Discover Top Obliques Exercises to Give You Great Six-Pack Abs

It is important to target your oblique abdominal muscles with an obliques workout, as well as your lower abs and your upper abs.

The oblique muscles are required for all side bending movements so it is important to strengthen them and keep them that way. Strong oblique muscles are important for core strength and they help to prevent lower back injuries.

Your oblique muscles are always being worked when you perform any abdomen exercise that targets either the upper or lower abs anyway, but they are working at the optimum level when a side bend or a twist is added to the movement or exercise.

So, an effective obliques workout will involve exercises incorporating a twisting or side bending motion.

Another Great Obliques Workout For Great Results

Renegade Pushup to Row

This movement requires a degree of rowing strength.

Start with a pair of dumbbells or kettlebells - fairly light weights if you are new to this type of exercise.

Try to follow the obliques exercise as shown in this video.

It takes a while to get use to this movement, and you will need to keep your back as straight as possible - don't let your tummy sag, and don't push your butt up into the air either. Perhaps you should practice the plank exercise and your pushups, before you attempt these renegade rows.
