Jeremy Ethier has an interesting video on research showing spot reduction is sort of possible - with research showing where the body burns fat from can be influenced on what muscles are doing activity and without enough of a load being placed on the abs, there isn't the catalyst to burn fat from that area. That could explain why it's so difficult especially for women to lose weight around the middle since weighted ab exercises isn't something most women do.
I actually touch on that research in this post about losing belly fat. And while interesting and a big change, seeing enough client's diets, I would argue it is also often our macros, and specifically a change in protein that pays off most. And the cherry on top is that we do use specified core work followed by ways to utilize those mobilized fatty acids to help get the benefit of spot lipolysis for areas that lack blood flow - redefiningstrength.com/why-93-of-women-never-lose-belly-fat?sl=yc
I don't know why but last year I discovered that I couldn't do a reverse crunch with my legs extended. I hadn't done one in years. But I used to be able to do them. So I wasn't sure when I stopped being able to do them. I have had an MRI done which showed degenerative disc's, a disc out of place and arthritis in my back. This is partly why I've wanted to strengthen my core. The other reason is just that I want a stronger core. So I'm gonna do the reverse crunch with the foam roller. I have a nordic stick that attaches underneath my door. I also use it to attach battle ropes to. So I'll do the overhead grip onto that. Thanks for the inspo and the info Cori.
@@redefiningstrengthOC it's interesting that you mentioned glute work. The things that I used to do that left my glutes sore like kettlebell swings, Bulgarian split squats, etc don't leave me feeling as sore as before. I thought maybe I've just gotten used to doing them. But it is definitely a difference.
I don’t like reverse as I’d hurt me back when a chef.. so I changed to another move.. to not feel the pinch /pain etc. trial n error but, did stop the back popping out😖
With two herniated discs in my lower back I do no longer this exercise and deadlifts. Instead of that I do kettlebell swings and Turkish getups and hip thrusts. For my glutes I do wide lunges and Cossack squats and for my back one arm row and floor presses. When my herniated discs were acute I couldn't work for 6 weeks and was in terrible pain. I couldn't go alone to the bathroom or getting dressed. So, be careful.
@@pck1166 I do kettlebell swings as well. For the last couple of years I somehow stop doing them around the holidays in December. I didn't plan to either time it's just happened that way. It's humbling when I start back because those first couple of workouts are a little rough. I've seen where people who were involved in bodybuilding start doing kettlebell swings and are surprised by how good of a workout it is.
@@redefiningstrengthOC you're welcome. When a fitness person with this level of abdominal development and definition talks about ab exercises, we better listen very carefully ;)
Thank you - guilty, I 'do the work' meaning I will use momentum or sacrifice posture to 'get it done', I know I do this & you have cemented in WHY I do not want to be rushing just to 'get it.. kinda done', wasting my time. I want improvements, this is the way. Thank you saving, subbing, sharing! xx
Thanks for explaining these ab exercises! I plan on adding them in to my workouts. Still working on my nutrition, but tips/exercises from previous videos have really helped me take my core definition to another level and I want to keep improving! Thank you Cori!
Always love your videos Cori. Will give these a try. 2 years of physio for a weak core it just wont strengthen. Sick of having a sore lower back if I walk more than 200m or stand too long. 6 years ago I did triathlons. Now I can hardly walk. Frustrating as hell. Not to mention the extra weight I've put on.
You should also be straightening your glutes along with abs to relieve back pain and sciatica as well. They work in conjunction. I only learned this last year. Seems like the foundation to me.
Hope you're doing that glute activation work as well as even addressing any hip mobility, or amazingly ANKLE mobility, restrictions as well. But that focus on full core work, not just the abs is so key! And make sure to regress to progress! Wanted to share these tips too - redefiningstrength.com/the-right-way-to-get-a-strong-lower-back-4-exercises?sl=yc
I am guilty of not focusing on my core in the past and thought that it was all about the weights. I ended up with severe back/hip issues 😢 I have been focusing on my core-muscle connection for the past year and finally my issues are improving!
I love the beginning of this video.. Good Job Lady! I will be implementing this into my routine. People at the gym are going to look at me funny.. but Hey! Gotta get those Abs😀
So these wouldn't be my go-tos for targeting the obliques. You would want anti-rotational, rotational or even lateral flexion movements. Here are some options: redefiningstrength.com/the-best-oblique-exercise-youre-not-doing?sl=yc redefiningstrength.com/the-best-core-exercise-everyone-hates?sl=yc redefiningstrength.com/the-most-underrated-core-exercise?sl=yc
Ab rollers are great too. Also, a progression to the straight leg variation, you can work up to a dragon flag, where you lower yourself more like a plank than rolling down.
Love those options! The ab roller is a great extended plank option! Even went over that specific move more here - redefiningstrength.com/how-to-do-ab-wheel-rollouts-the-right-way-3-tips?sl=yc
I've followed you a long time. I recall you have an old video of hanging core exercises. I do the leg raises on bar, not quite toes to bar yet. When I started I could only do the tuck. I want to try that plank variation though as plank to stretch after workout.
I just love listening to all your explanations. I've been working out for years but every video has taught me something I don't know. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great question but really depends on your other core training and how you're including these. I may add them as a finisher or add them in to a current circuit. Although I do often even like TIMED ab training to focus on what I feel working and not rush through.
Depending on how big your ab separation is you may want to do physio to start but the pelvic tilt progression truly is key - redefiningstrength.com/how-to-do-the-pelvic-tilt-exercise-and-should-you?sl=yc
Yes it "can" be if you regress to progress and learn to avoid overloading your back. It's honestly a key move to build up to but we need to learn to engage our core properly to protect our spine with it.
I don't like doing follow alongs as I find they cause people to lose intentionality and just...well...follow along over even modifying based on what they need. But I do have workouts laid out with instructional videos you can do based on your level in my Dynamic Strength program - redefiningstrength.com/dynamic-strength?sl=yc
Depends on what other core work your including and your overall workout design and schedule - we always want to design for the time you have. And while I may do core work multiple times a week, I try to use diversity over the week and would use these just in one workout. I often even like to include them for timed circuits to focus less on counting reps and more on what I feel working.
@@redefiningstrengthOC Had to change my response, realizing that it was not a great plan 🤪 Kids are on summer break for 8 weeks and I can’t go to the gym during this time (booh!). The kids and yard are keeping me busy and my husband is out of town, so this is all I can do: 3x week 30 min on the elliptical 3x 30-min barbell whole body workouts (UA-cam videos) I would love to add some more core to this because that’s my weak area after having kids. Would love to add core exercises on the days I am not doing barbell workouts. So, how many reps and sets would you recommend doing for core exercises in general? Or does that then interfere with the muscle building from the whole body barbell workouts? Are those enough for core?
Depends on the level you've rebuilt to and the actual degree of ab separation. But the pelvic tilt is a key component of building that core strength - redefiningstrength.com/how-to-do-the-pelvic-tilt-exercise-and-should-you?sl=yc
So while putting core work earlier on to mobilize fatty acids to be utilized can be key, just be careful of isolated core work that fatigues your core prior to heavy lifting. That can then lead to other muscles becoming overused because our abs are tired and not engaging as effectively...especially with things like deadlift.
Daily desk postures and overuse of muscles can be addressed through our prehab work. And noting moves like these ab exercises where they do compensate is key for us to address to change those recruitment patterns!
OK, great stuff, I have a somewhat of an embarrassing question. I am a 52 yo male, because of stupid decisions when younger I am now 100pds over weight, most carried right in front, covering my abs, I look 9 months pregnant 😢. Most of those Abe excersise I physically can't do. I am working on my eating, but with strengthening my core, what excersise would be good for someone like me? Thank you.
Always a way to modify even these moves. You may find the plank extensions off a higher box or incline match your needs. I've even used a bar in a rig to set a higher incline or a wall to create the appropriate "resistance." But you may also find these moves helpful - ua-cam.com/video/dr6nSwHcaQI/v-deo.html Glad you're focusing on that nutrition! SO KEY!
Depending on your core control and ab separation, you may build up to these, but I'd start with the pelvic tilt progression. Hope you've done physio too! redefiningstrength.com/how-to-do-the-pelvic-tilt-exercise-and-should-you?sl=yc
@@redefiningstrengthOC I am anterior pelvic tilt. I can’t feel especially for my lower abs is working. I feel my lower back and my neck is working. Would you please introduce a new episode to talk about the best abs training exercise for those with anterior pelvic tilt. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the feedback! I get wanting to just know the moves, but too often we're doing the right moves and not seeing benefit BECAUSE we don't understand the value of intentionality. I want clients not wasting time later even if it means spending more time right now to learn.
