No you can’t spot reduce the fat around your middle by doing a bazillion crunches or sit ups…
BUT focused ab work can help you get that lean, defined core when your nutrition is dialed in.
Yet too often we skip the core work.
If we add it in, it’s an afterthought.
And too often we think we’ve done even enough core work because we’ve included heavy lifts like squat and deadlift.
And while those moves do benefit your core, they’re working it only in one way…to stabilize.
But our abs power spinal flexion and don’t only resist extension or stabilize.
Not to mention our obliques twist and turn, and laterally flex not to mention help us prevent unwanted rotation.
This means we want to target all of these movement patterns to see the best results.
That’s why I want to share a few of my favorite core moves, specifically two moves focused on your abs, to train these muscles both with flexion and anti-extension exercises to not only help you build a stronger core but a more defined one.
However, first I want to touch on two essentials to core training that will help you see better results faster and are too often IGNORED…
I’ll then also show you how to use my favorite moves while addressing these two key components…
