You could try bicycles, leg raises, and try hanging from a chin-up bar and lifting your legs straight out as high as you can

Weighted crunches are a good way to make those abs stand out more. Twisting crunches, side bends, and cable crunches are also good.

I mix it up but still rest between sets.

Ab days consist of the following:
Regular crunches (20 reps)
Oblique crunches (20 reps each side)
Lifting heels straight up into air (20 reps)
Rest in between and start over with the whole run-through for three sets
I also do the rotary torso machine and I also lay on an incline and lift legs to a 90 degree angle, pause and do negatives on the way back down. You can put on ankle weights to make it more difficult. Do three sets of 12 to start.

Enjoy

I recommend taking a very short if no break at all between each exercise this will keep the stomach burning and screaming throughout the entire exercise

No break in between each exercise I listed. You run through the 60 reps and then take a break between sets.

Hope that helps.
