Used for: Aesthetic ab training targeting the front abs Praised: Builds the front abs without thickening the waist vs: Recommended instead of weighted side bends

"I see guys doing like weighted side bends, I'm like, quit doing that. You're just going to thicken up the side of your waist. I think you should be doing a bunch of like weighted crunches straight down the middle, just for this front section."
