Who doesn't love having six-pack abs, right? However, after nearly a month of nationwide social distancing, those abs seem to have disappeared, leaving you with just a round belly. Let's apply this 10-minute ab workout right away to bring those abs back.

We have a total of 8 ab exercises, and these exercises not only target the outer abs but also engage the deep core muscles. This means you'll not only have great-looking abs but also be truly healthy. A strong core protects your spine better, allowing you to lift heavier weights.

Let's dive into these killer ab exercises

1. Plank

This is a pretty familiar ab exercise, and almost everyone has done it at least once. If you're not sure about the Plank technique, check out this article to do it right and avoid back pain.

2. Banded Woodchop

This is an exercise commonly used for the obliques or specifically the rectus abdominis. To do this exercise, you'll need a resistance band, so if you don't have one yet, consider buying one. Resistance bands are quite affordable nowadays. You can purchase one from the link below.

3. Superman Plank

Let's revisit the Plank exercise from earlier, but we'll make it a bit more challenging.

4. Elevated

Here's an easier version of the Superman Plank above.

5. Incline Plank

Introducing another variation of the plank exercise, slightly more challenging. Let's see how to do this ab exercise properly.

6. Incline Banded Plank

This exercise is identical to the one above, except that you'll attach a resistance band to your ankles to perform the movement.

7. Decline Knee to Elbow Plank

Similar to the elevated plank above, but this time instead of extending your legs to the floor, you'll be bringing your knees towards your elbows.

Perform 10-20 reps on each side.

8. Weighted Overhead Sit-Ups

For this ab crunch exercise, utilize household items such as a backpack, a water bottle, or a dumbbell if you have one, to perform the exercise.

So there you have it, we've completed all 8 home ab workouts for men. One thing to note is that ab exercises won't significantly reduce belly fat (though they do help a bit), but you should still train regularly to develop your abs and strengthen your core. Don't forget to check out your diet when hitting the gym for the best results.
