I would also recommend alternating side bends with the bar on shoulders, and heavy unilateral overhead press, side and bent press to also develop lateral core strength. One of my favorites for core strength is pull-ups facing the sky with legs straight up, actually making it a row, but it smokes my core. Good core is essential to healthspan. I'm 63, the fountain of youth has a high iron content. Never stop lifting. Great channel. Never fails to impress and enlighten.

I've added a lot of band exercises from these videos to my prehab work and it feels great, thanks! I would just mention one arm kettlebell swings for those without a reverse hyper. Eagle sit-ups are also great as a replacement for an incline sit-up (don't pull yourself all the way up, do a slow eccentric). And of course, the Swiss ball crunches...Charles Poliquin swears by these, tough and effective.

I've been looking to strengthen up my abs because I'm getting really lean but I'm still looking a bit soft in that area. My back is jacked because I focus a lot on that area though. I knew if I typed in Matt Wenning abs he would come thru for me. Only thing I hate is commercial gyms don't typically have hyper extensions. Sucks because it's probably one of the best hamstring exercises and I'm stuck with basically just doing back extensions with a 45lb plate for high reps.

Abs if we are to get technical, muscle size, strength, and visibility are all made in the kitchen bc that is were were get nutrients. A skinny guy that doesn't workout is either going to be "skinny fat" no abs or will have flat lame abs. To make bigger abs just like any other muscle they have to be trained aka "made" in the gym bot kitchen. So the strength of abs as you express as well as the size is made in gym by stimulating adaption, size and strength. And they are fueled and "revealed" in the kitchen. 😉
