Crunches
Bicycle Crunches
Reverse Crunches
Side Crunches
Leg Lifts
JUMP SQUTZ

You'll get abs of steel. Steely determination, that is.

Squats and pistols on a rail. Teaches you balance; intense core and lower workout. Parkour in general works core like crazy.

You want abs? Get a couple of bars together, like you're going to do some dips, then lift yourself up so your arms are straight. Keeping your back at a right angle with the floor, lift both your legs (keep them straight) so they are parallel with the floor. Lower them. Repeat. Fucking ridiculously intense

It's not about flexibility. Can you sit? That's the position you're going for. It's about ridiculous core strength.

Make some parallettes (http://www.westsideacademy.com/boysteam/buildit.php); do L-sits, V-sits, dips, rail squats, bar pushups, HSPUs, in&outs, planches, etc.

Better yet, do all of the above on rings.

I have to say, out of all the shit that goes on at the olympics, I have the most respect for gymnasts that do this.

it is about flexibility if you want to do it with the legs extended at the knee
