Workout For Older Men: The A-40 Core Set

Train Like A Man Over 40 Should: go2.sixpackshor...
Hey guys I want to show you all one of my all time favorite core-chiseling exercise techniques that I like to call the “A-40”.
An “A-40” consists of 4 ab-targeted moves that are performed back to back with no rest breaks. Each move within the “A-40” will be performed at 10 reps each - Making each “A-40” set a 40 rep six pack accelerator.
So if you are like me, you are probably thinking, well heck - how is this ab workout any different from the other thousands of ab workouts on KZbin? Well - here's how:
Time efficiency. Older guys like you don’t have time for regular ab workouts, this tremendously shortens the time. You hit all areas of your abs in one single set.
Help yourself get the abs you've always wanted faster than you thought possible: go2.sixpackshor...
A-40's are challenging but yet do not yield a high risk of injury. If you do regular ab workouts such as crunches and sit-ups, they firstly aren't truly all that effective and they also place a great deal of stress on your spine, neck and lower back.
And finally: Simplicity. One single A-40 set is a complete ab workout, targeting all corners of your midsection. It's the all in one - In addition, The A-40 requires no equipment, and can be done in the comforts of your own home!
Now, doing 40 consecutive reps seems intense, and believe me, it sure is - but as I mentioned before, each of the 4 exercises are structured to focus on all areas of the midsection - Your rectus, obliques, lower abs and even the deepest abdominal layer, the transversus.
The best part about the “A-40” is that it is designed specifically to spare your neck, low back and spine - which are the most common problem areas for men who striving to get ripped six pack abs, ESPECIALLY for guys who are ages 40 and up.
So let me show you what the A-40 looks like right now:
Workout Breakdown:
3:30 - 10 flutter kicks
3:50 - 10 toe reaches
4:16 - 10 pull-ins
4:35 - 10 reverse crunches
Men over 40 need to do this one thing different for the body they deserve: go2.sixpackshor...
Whew, now to complete the workout, hit this cycle 3 times total - and for even more of a core burn, try to complete the cycle 5 times!
So what are you guys waiting for? Train to get in the best shape yet: go2.sixpackshor...
P.S. Don't forget to remind all of your friends 40 and up that the Abs After 40 full program launch is this Monday, January 4th... Share this video for your shot to get the entire program free: • Workout For Older Men:...

[@georgeserrano9048]

I never had a six pack more of a keg! I'm 46 and willing to give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration!!! Any change in a positive direction will be a personal victory.

[@davidearle1940]

Mark, I just turned 50 and found your website and workouts a few days ago. I just did three sets of the A-40. OMG! I've got a long way to go, but I think that this is finally what I need to get rid of the belly and love handles.

[@Stewcrew8]

this was killer!!! started off with two reps of all and added heel touches.. side to side... thank you sir!

[@jonathanstory6802]

Hi George, I really like your 4 exercises. Am 78 and interested in keeping fit but intelligently. Thanks for these 4.

[@xOriginalGamerOG76x]

Gonna put this into my plan in between my body weight training days.Thanks very much..I turn 40 in summer.

[@jdguegue]

Thanks Mark.....Danny 66 years old from Toronto. I love the workout. It really burns!

[@tuttifruttione]

Thx man, for the ABS over 40 tips; I can incorporate them with the exercise workouts I already adhere to. Thus, speeding up the process of me getting those 6-pack abs I so desire ! Keep up the good work!!!

[@Janhartman74]

Thnx! Gonna try this instead of my daily 100 sit-ups. I'm 41 and my kids (14&11) are trying now too. It's motivating to see you looking as good as you do. You show guys that it's possible and that age is no excuse!

[@alikassem8991]

I remember 2015 like it was yesturday...ahhh good memories.

[@hybrid711]

I'm 49 and recovering from a work related concussion, your video's without weights are helping me get back into shape without high impact brain jarring exercises.

[@rudolfkogan9825]

Been working out all my life, this is a great concept to keep yourself in shape !!! Thank you!!!

[@OGofOGz]

I'm not 40 yet but this A-40 looks like it would work nice in addition to my normal routine. I'm 33 btw. Thanks for this man!

[@KevinLeMelle]

I performed the Ab40 workout for a year and got my six pack. I'm 52.

[@kingdomrock]

I'm 45 and I felt the burn! It was difficult to do the 3rd cycle but I made it through. Thanks so much.

[@kennybrogan5234]

Like this a lot. Been doing various ab work for a while and this definitely works. Was feeling it after 1 cycle never mind 3.

[@GaryFreudenberger]

Just did 3 sets of the A40 ab work out, I added 10 Mountain climbers and 10 shoulder touch planks to complete the workout, awesome

[@The1commenterguy]

just tried this out for the 1st time. 5 cycles 20-25 second rest. God dam!!! on the last cycle I definitely didn't keep perfect form on the last 3 sets but for dam sure felt the burn. Thanks for the vid!

[@lenheilborn7605]

Hi Mark - I'm 70 - & you've motivated me to get off my backside & get fit again :-)

[@MrCoolios12]

Thanks for the great video Mister ex-president sir, keep it up!

[@VWbugman]

thanks. I'll sure give it a try. I have a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in my right leg, but I think this will be okay to work with, it really doesn't seem to be to stressful on the leg.

[@TheGhostpatrol]

I'm gonna start this today!! And I'm so pumped to get it going!! Thanks for the new motivation!

[@djcarmelo711]

Thats Marc you are an inspiration to me every day

[@djcarmelo711]

[@rollingstart_90s]

This man is in great shape!

[@amarijayamari]

- I do it- only twice a week, and generally do the reverse about 3 reps, and only the bicycle for a count of 30, and then stand and stretch. Yours looks a lot burnier...!

[@frost1947]

Now, finally the video gets real as far as showing what to do, good exercises which I actually believe will help me, thanks!

[@andreking5124]

[@peterwoods35]

I'm 61--great ab workout. Thanks!

[@dmusiz]

I like how's it's simple but seems affective👍🏽

[@Evanmander]

I jumped on the floor and did this after watching the video. I can feel a ton of effect. Would love to post abs pictures for you in the near future (once they show up).

[@mikesloan2313]

gettin' that ab burn for sure...

[@mid-lifeslices6518]

comments gave me a laugh but in seriousness, this is an excellent, perfect routine. I tried it instead of the stupid treadmill stuff and it was way more intensive and you could really feel it. Also, *beautiful* Stingray.

[@godson28881988]

this works great! definitely adding it to my routine

[@jmini2010]

I will surely try this.

[@TheRealJimW]

Did that first set and I thought EASY… second set kick my booty! Third set DID NOT HAPPEN… I'll get there.

[@robwhigham1717]

I just found this video and your others...I am 45 and ready! thanks for these videos!

[@samsmullen991]

I just found this and will give it a try. I'll let you know after sticking with it for a month.

[@johngrieves5087]

Skip the first 3 minutes of verbal repetition. Like the videos where Mark say Belly Fat 50 times. Why do fitness people think that their audience are either infants or incapable of immediate cognition. There's so much of this content on the tube - so why do this - it's counter productive. A clever instructor might also say " Hi I'm Mark, I'm going to explain the purpose of this exercise but if want run your mouse down to 3.30 mins you'll see my workout immediately". I don''t think I'm being rude - i just keep thinking "hurry up and get to the exercises because you keep saying the same thing over and over and i want to shut the page down" and then I enjoyed watching the exercise. So thanks for finally getting there Mark - you look great and I'm 6 minutes older when i could have been only 3!!!

[@DozSkills]

awesome workout did 5 cycles thanks

[@phil9863]

good workout. Can't believe he is doing it on concrete

[@SawR]

George Bush is ripped af

[@TheAnswerIs30]

[@maubtr7195]

[@kenosmith2]

I was thinking the same thing

[@txturbo930]

Don't forget the most important exercise, limiting the motion of hand to mouth with junk food and beer! Diet Diet Diet.

[@jeffbaney2771]

the heal tuches mad my back pop twice per rep.and my thighs are now on fire.

[@cyranothecat]

Im gonna try it tomorrow and get back with you.

[@Robnord1]

Hey Mark, I'm liking what I see here, and they do get those abs burning...and that's got to be good ! I've had so many neck problems I could do all of these, but had to modify a little. For instance, on flutter kicks I have to leave my head on the mat and not crane neck forward to avoid injury. Thanks for the info here & looking forward to more !

[@gospos1]

Thank you Mark...really enjoy your videos...will be trying this soon!...Paul

[@edwinocegueda9682]

thank you I'm going to try this starting today right away

[@PastorJwit]

[@WesleyClouden]

[@pauldobbie6750]

good simple workout for us old guys. Thanks

[@chris8383]

To really make this an intense workout and build sculpted abs, grab the heaviest BB plate you can manage without sacrificing form and complete the exercise routine with the BB plate in a steering wheel positon.

[@sairamniranjan3908]

Awesome! 40 yrs 14 yrs

[@jjstubbs3244]

I'm 11 I have a 4 pack because of all of your advice

[@markjaycocks7999]

thanks for this, I'll give it a go. I do suffer with lower back pain. will this cause further problems. cheers, Mark

[@hossinsayed1013]

a-40 is very simple but it counts alot.

[@hybrid711]

Thanks Mark.

[@10MinutestoRouletteFortune]

[@crisgamboa1501]

[@koleary1798]

This actually looks good, definitely going to give it a go!

[@BigHandsWill]

I am trying the workout. looks good thank you.

[@1Klooch]

Abs after 66 is even easier! Retired-you can spend 18 1/2 hours each day on your work-out. Ok, Sunday you can veg and only do 12 hours.

[@JRRios-xr9dh]

I'll give it a go.

[@patman123100]

Thanks Mark.. good ab stuff I can do at home

[@mattpolitzer2920]

Mark, Thanks. I do similar routine and am always looking to change things up. Keep it up. I also love hotrods. Bad ass Vette you got!

[@huggeebear]

Older guy here. I did them except the in-out pull ins. Reason being is they cause lower spinal strain in me. Its the same with Russian Abs twists. How about subbing out that for something else. Suggestions ?

[@johnsimpson7349]

I'm trying this now

[@owenwinter2662]

Great presentation and good demonstration..Thanks I will try this..

[@morganlake41632]

Hey Mark, I liked what you said in your infomercial....cardio workouts, crunches, etc diets...all dont work to reduce belly fat because the problem is testosterone...and testosterone is increased only through resistance training which is varied and uses free weights over machines....So what is this video for ? Guys in Stage 4 of your programs?

[@Writerdust]

It is annoying that the camera films him not staring into the camera that is on. This seems to be a consistent theme in his videos.

[@jwad1329]

Good workout. My abs cramped up. I loved it

[@christianxzowner2958]

ill add this in my work out thkx!!

[@mainst531]

thanks, Dubya

[@wayneflint9849]
