Another great video can you make one and show physical demonstration of the exercises and the forms to strengthen your abs and also show what's the wrong way that people have been doing it that would be great thanks

Could u show a quick 45-60 min abs exercise video which shows the technique and how to perform properly. Thanks so much. Your vid are super awesome and informal

Thanks for the video Max. Good content. I think it's great you indicated that Abs should not be trained everyday. I used to train them daily. I'm hoping that training them 3 times a week nowadays will make a difference.

As PictureFit would say, "Abs are made in the gym and revealed in the kitchen."

As usual, generally sound advice, but I think some of the specific suggestions are less universal and more targeted to bodybuilders. I don't know many people who necessarily want to "grow" their abs. Usually all they want is a strong, functional core, and a good-looking midsection. "Big abs" is more a bodybuilding goal. You don't need to progressively overload your abs with more weight to get a six pack. Mostly, as you point out, you need to address your body composition, but beyond that, body weight ab exercises are all most people need to meet their goals.

Every time I do sit-ups I bend my knees and cross my arms across my chest as I’m holding a plate.
This eliminates the chances of applying pressure and stress to the neck. It also keeps tension on the abs.

Does size and weight actually equate to health and how in shape you are?? I was a division 1 athlete and during the best shape of my life I was still heavier than most people would assume and wore a size US womens 18 (6’0) but I could run and lift for days and was so athletic... it’s super discouraging because many people assume I’m out of shape and unhealthy but don’t feel that way at all

Speaking of machinery....what about cable crunches that don't lock you in a range of motion and are recommended by most of body builder YouTubers?

So my brother has lost over 50 pounds... And l watched your other video and he is in between stubborn belly fat and the extra line or fat at the bottom that only shows when he sits down what type of workout do you recommend for him....???

[samaradella]

Man please less talk more examples...
You are focusing on what not to do and thank you for that but it won't be fruitful without saying what to do on the contrary..

Should you train your abs having skinny fats or target on reducing overall bodyfat rather than focusing on only abs!

[SexyCubnO]

Demonstrations with wrong/correct ways of doing the exercise please.

People, this shit ain't that complicated. IF you want to see a nice six pack, it's a simple 3 step process. 1.) Get your body fat % to 10% or less via diet and exercise. 2.) Workout your abs at least 2-3 days a week just like you would any other muscle group. So long as you fatigue those muscles, they will grow enough to have good definition. 3.) Get enough damn sleep. If you don't get an average of 7hrs of sleep per night you will fuck everything up, starting with your hormones such as leptin, ghrelin, testosterone, and cortisol. Do those 3 things and you will have a nice defined six pack within 3-6mths if not less, (depending on how fat you are to begin with).
