    MY HEIGHT ▹
    I'm 5'5
    A lot of people ask me how long it takes me to make a video. This one involved about 5 hours of filming (shoutout to Stephanie for that), 20 hours of research (my assistant, Max, took care of that), 8 hours of additional research and reading on my part and about 24 hours of total editing time in final cut. The best way you can support me and this work is by leaving a positive comment and watching my videos *all the way to the end*! Thanks so much for the continued support! I just got my silver play button from youtube today and am feeling more motivated than ever!! See you guys soon!

    5:58 to 6:01 - Abs Exercise for specific parts.
    For overall activation of Abs, we should do at least one crunch-type movement and one leg-raise type movement.
    8:00 - Plank
    8:56 - moderate reps for easy loaded movement and high reps for heavy loaded movement.
    9:06 - 3 to 6 session per week and two exercise per session 3 to 4 sets per session ( The frequency and volume can be increased over time).
    9:27 - lower back exercise.

    Hey Jeff, great video, I really appreciate all the effort you and Stephanie put into making these, and you've truly earned my subscription.
    With that in mind, have you considered making a science explained video on rest -- both in the context of rest between sets and rest days? With the plethora of different exercises, set/rep schemes, and even rep tempos out there, I think there is a real danger in not understanding how important rest is (and how to do it properly to maximize progress).
    Thanks so much for what you do, you're an inspiration to us all!

    Summary:
    - Yes, diet will help show you what's underneath, you first need to build the Abs
    - Squats and DL are not sufficient in building Abs
    - Incorporate at least 1 Crunch movement exercise (targeting upper abs);
    - And at least 1 Leg-raise movement (targeting lower abs)
    What I will incorporate in my workout in the future
    - My favourite Leg-raise exercise: weighted reverse crunch.
    Reason = easier for focus on the abs than say hanging leg raise where lats are involved, easy to do progression overload
    - My favourite Crunch exercise: Cable ab crunch
    Reason = easy to do progression overload than say hold a plate on your chest

      Take the 'scientific literature' on fitness with a grain of salt.. several powerlifters have said that those main movements do help build strength in those muscles, perhaps they're not sufficient for traditional hypertrophy tho.

    Oh my gosh this is so helpful. I am an obese severe asthmatic (as in on a ventilator also known as life support, once a year and hospitalized for asthma attacks about every other month). I've been taking breathing treatments while using cardio equipment and have been looking for scientifically backed exercises for some light lifting to tone the rest.
    Abs excercises are the hardest for me by far. My spine is fused with 5 rods and 32 screws. Anytime I perform any type of "ab" isolation excercises, my lower back is killer. Thank you for giving me some options for exercises I can actually try that is backed by evidence! Maybe one of these I can actually do! Good luck on your fit journey. You're an inspiration!

      I have to visit a medical university once a week as doctors are fascinated by how my body even functions at this point. Really sucks working out right after donating blood to science but my diet consisting of eating ahh mainly has kept me lean and my gut bacteria healthy.

    About 2 years ago I started doing crunches while holding a medicine ball up behind my head instead of straight up in front of my face. When I first started doing this, my upper abs started burning immediately. I also felt a greater stretch when I had the medicine ball just off the floor. I can definitely tell this variation was a great help in increasing my core strength.
