You know your abs are ready and waiting to pop out beneath your belly, they just need a little push to show out in the form of a six-pack. Our core is very importnat and training our core can improve our posture, reduce and prevent lower-back pain, and advance your athletic performance.

If you are fat or obese no matter how many times you do these exercises your abs won't be visible. So first make sure that you are at least below 15 percent of body fat.
Add these 10 exercises to your workout routine to make sure your abs get the attention they need.

1. Deadlift

Yes, you read it right, you might be thinking that how can deadlift train your core, But it is one of the best exercises for your core.

During a deadlift, the rectus abdominis and the obliques are both hard at work. The rectus abdominis is a pair of long muscles that extend the length of the torso. The obliques extend along either side of the torso. When you deadlift your abdomen muscle gets contracted and tight because when you perform a deadlift, you breathe in and hold your breath and that is when abdomen muscles come into play.

2. Squat

Same with the Squat, When we perform a squat, our abs and core face constant tension. Before going from the standing position into the squat, our abs build up tension in the lower part of your upper body.

When doing a squat, especially extensor muscles, lateral and straight abdominal muscles, as well as your lower back muscles, allow your upper body to remain in a straight position. You can see all the muscles that are engaged during a squat below.

3. Hanging Leg Raises

Hang from a pull-up bar with your hands and shoulder-width apart. Grab the bar using an overhand (pronated) grip. This is the starting position. Lift both of your knees until they make a 90-degree angle with your torso. Hold this position for 2 seconds, then fully extend your legs below you. That's one rep. To increase the intensity, instead of bending your legs, keep them straight when you raise them.

4. Plank

This is one of the best exercise to train your core, perform this exercise at the beginning or end of your workout. This exercise is an isometric hold that really focuses on the core. This movement is a mid-tier activator of both the rectus abdominis and obliques. You also don't need any fancy equipments to perform this exercise, so this is a good exercise to train your core muscles.

5. Reverse Crunch

This is a good exercise to train your lower abdomen part. As you perform this exercise breathe in, pull your knees toward your chest as you roll your pelvis backward and raise your hips and upper back off the floor. Hold this position for 1-2 seconds, then exhale as you move your legs back to the starting position.

6. Jackknife

You can perform this exercise while sitting and also while lying down. Lie down on your back, your arms should be extended above your head, and your hands touching the floor. This is the starting position. Bring your body to a "V" shape by lifting your legs and torso toward each other, keeping both your legs straight and your arms extended. Touch your hands to your legs, then lower your torso, arms, and legs back to the floor.

7. Kneeling Cable Crunch

We train every body part of our with weights then why not our core. Whenever it comes to training core people do not train their core with weights, they just train it free weight or do bodyweight exercise. We should train our ABS with adding weights also. The primary strength to this exercise variation is its versatility. It allows you to use any level of resistance to train for a target rep range.

8. Ab- Wheel Roll- Out

This exercise capitalizes on the concept of anti-extension perfectly; as you roll out your trunk should perform an eccentric motion. When you move upwards in this exercise your whole abdomen gets contracted.
