The Core Explained (and Why YOU Can't See Your Abs)

The Core:

Why is the core so important?

Why do we care so much about a 6 pack?

Why do some people do a million crunches and never see abs?

Why do people say abs are made in the kitchen?

Why cant most people see their abs?

How do we build our abs to be stronger, more visible, and how it affects the rest of our performance in LIFE in and out of the gym?

In this episode, I dive into each of these things and really dissect what it takes to build abs and WHY everyone should build their ab/core strength and size.

Not only that, I explain exactly how to build up your abs AND make them pop for a full, muscular, toned look (while also being practical simply by having a stronger core).

We also get into the ab muscle anatomy, which is essentially comprised of 4 parts:

1) Rectus Abdominis

2) Internal Obliques

3) External Obliques

4) Transverse Abdominis

What are these? Where are they on the body? How do they differ and which ones are more important to train?

Check out the episode to get a better understanding of the body's core and how its utilized on a daily basis.
