This was honestly one of the most valuable episodes of MP lately, for me

[Rtr.AmanJha]

I can never stop listening to Sal 😭🙏🏻❤

[arandununez]

This is my favorite show to watch while im driving i love mindpump!!

[LeoChambo]

Abs are made in the gym but revealed in the kitchen, keep up the work guys 🤝

[mkoepke]

“Squish the Bug” is a posterior pelvic tilt, typically the foundation of general low back pain treatment we do in Physical Therapy. I always appreciate the simplistic explanation you guys do, bringing good information to your followers!

[maryannjenkins]

Mind pump has taught me so much!! I’ve been doing abs wrong until I found you!! Thank you!!

[tommyj]

Been doing farmers walks, and overhead carries on your recommendations. Game changer, Thanks as always.

[jmp]

The anti-rotation exercise Sal refers to at 19:38 is called a Palloff press. It is a phenomenal strengthening exercise for the obliques. You can do it with bands or cables.

The only exercises that have come close to that for me are an ab roller in a diagonal pattern or a scissor pushup, but the Palloff press you can progressively overload overtime.

[khareembruce]

thank you again gentlemen for another great video, I always used to stay away from doing abs by themselves because I was too uncertain of what to do right. and of course watching these fitness influencers mixing plyometrics, and HIIT proclaiming it to be a fat burning ab workout made things more complicated. But now I know a very simple way to work out the abs, and that it doesn't need to be high reps as well, like how Adam was comparing it to calf raises. So now I know the foundation for a simple ab workout, and also low reps on calf workouts. farmer carries, reverse crunches, or regular crunches with my back flat on the floor, band/ cable chops, vacuum sucking in stomach move. and they don't require me doing 15-30 reps😃

[xXToxicRaiderXx]

I'm amazed how you guys just release quality content right after another

[EvilMrRogers]

Yeah, def counter to what I've heard all my life to do many reps instead of adding weight. Episode over and all caught back up, now time to listen to all the beginning episodes up until I started listening to you guys.

[ambermulder]

Working on my core has been key to reducing back and shoulder pain. Great content. Thanks for the practical advice.

[TeamNoFlyZone]

Been using the no BS abs mod for half a year now and they are definitely starting to pop now since I'm building them!

[Easymactransit]

I will be focusing on abs now. I can’t squat much after a year without back pain. Continually help me address what I need to incorporate. I always suggest people to follow you guys. Thank you!!

[macmclark]

Good timing fellas! I'm on a goal to get them abs poppin. Finally at a good place with my metabolism, running a cut at 2, 600 calories. Your podcast has been priceless in getting me to this point! 💪

[melaniebrunell]

Happy to trade in doing a thousand crunches for the ab exercises the guys recommend! Thank you for the consistently wonderful content!

[mdjardinado]

I have been following your advice for so long so getting stronger is my main focus, but I'm not going to lie, on my trigger sessions, I try to work my abs as best as I can. Great Show!

[totally_not_zieee]

Love this content.. I used to train my core a lot when I was doing triathlon. 👌

[Didi-oiuz]

Just in time, this summer the abs will be revealed thanks to mind pump!

[zangites]

Can’t wait to try these. Learned a whole lot in this episode. Then again, I learn a lot in your episodes.
