Are you sick of doing hundreds of sit ups and crunches and not seeing the ab results you desire?
Stop wasting your time and start adding some resistance to your core workouts.
Think about it – when was the last time you did 3 sets of 20 – 30 reps of crunches? I dare say the last core workout you did probably included these types of sets/reps.
Now think about the last time you did some barbell squats. Did you do 3 sets of 30? Absolutely not!
You probably added weight until you could perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a little struggle on numbers 8-10.
So the question needs to be asked – as you’ve been getting stronger and progressing resistance on all your exercises, why haven’t you applied the same principle to your abs/core?!
If you want to see progress and if you want your abs to get stronger and more defined you have to be doing some kind of resisted work… [PERIOD].
