Abdominal excercises (with weight) - Easy on the back and fun to do
With most abdominal exercises I tend to get a pain in my back. I've been looking all over for exercises that are hard on the abdomen, but; easy on the back.

Whenever I find some reference to an exercise that 'should' be easy on my back it feels very awkward and painful to perform.

What are some abdominal exercises that have the possibility to add more weight/resistance that are less likely to hurt my back?

Learn how to do pull ups with a hollow body by contracting your abdomen when you pull.

Then hang a plate with dipping belt over your legs and keep doing hollow body pull ups.

This way you strengthen both your back and your abdomen at the same time.

Also apparently hollow body pull ups/chin ups have the highest abdominal activation across all the exercises tested in this list

I suspect front levers would be even better though.
