Best Oblique Exercise For Slamming Abs!
The answer is no. Using dumbbells or weights to do side lateral movements do not stress the oblique muscle as much as rotation movements. Lateral movements of the trunk like bending side to side, will only work the external oblique but not the internal ones. More over, hoisting heavy weights for trimming the torso will only end up bulking the torso. Best oblique exercise is a movement that exercises the internal and external oblique together. Rotation exercises stress both the and external oblique in way that you can never imagine. To perform the seated torso rotation exercise, you will need a cable tower and a fitball. If the fitball is not available, then use a bench. The whole purpose is to take away the lower body movement. Place the cables at shoulder height and hold the handles with both hands. Pull out the cable and sit on the fitball firmly with your abs in and back straight. Keep your arms straight but keep a slight bend at the elbows. If the cables are attached to the left side, squeeze your right oblique and rotate to the right. Release slowly and repeat it for 20-30 reps. Do 2-3 sets for each side. Of course, even with the best exercises in the world, you can't get those ripped abs if you don’t diet and do your cardio diligently. You are what you eat!
