Workout Breauxs - Recommend me a good core/ab program.

Squats and Deadlifts

Grilled chicken, green beans and rice..

Get you one of those as seen on tv belt things that vibrates the fat away

I got my ol lady to sew it into my souvenir wrestlemania belt and I wear it when I'm hanging around the house

It's baws not breauxs. Loser

Turkish getups
ab rollouts
kettle bell swings
figure eight motions with a medicine ball for obliques


don't need anything else really

compound lifts such as cleans, overhead squats, front squats, deadlifts will help too.

If you need a "guide"...



Mines well combine days 1-5 and start out with that for the first week. Assuming you're not 400lbs, day 1 is a waste.

Watch Alan Thrall's video "The truth about abs"

Martin Berkhan also scoffs at people who do Ab exercises. He said if you are dead lifting and squatting and chin upping enough then you will naturally have a strong core to go along with it

I wouldn't spend more than 5 minutes a week on Abs

I'd like to see someone who Dead lifts 2.5-3x their body weight who has weak abs.

Tldr: the best way to develop your abs and core is to kick arse on your core compound lifts

Like you, I have never really concentrated on my abs when working out, aside from one brief 6 week Ab Wheel phase I went through. Although I did see improvement in my core strength and balance from the Ab Wheel program alone, I couldn't stick with it. Now I just incorporate certain lifts that engage my core when lifting weights instead of exercises that specifically target abs.

The variable most beneficial to getting a visibly defined midsection in my opinion can be found in the kitchen. Along with changing my diet I have stuck with a mild version of intermittent fasting. I can essentially track my progress each morning before I've eaten anything just by flexing my abs and obliques in front of the mirror. It definitely requires a lot of patience if you have higher than 18% body fat, but the results are visible after a few high intensity lifting and cardio sessions accompanied by a strict meal plan that coincides with your caloric and nutritional needs.
