Ab Exercise You’ve NEVER EVER SEEN (6 Pack Pendulums!!)
Need more cutting edge ab exercises to carve out that 6 pack?http://athleanx.com/x/eliteabtraining
does core work mean more work for you not necessarily in fact you can keep your core work very short if you’re doing the right [Music] exercises what’s up guys Jeff Cavalier aex. com core work does not have to equal more work why because if you can start training your core and your abs smarter you’re not going to have to train them for as long so what do I mean by that well you guys have probably heard me talk about before some of the major things we have to make sure we’re doing when we’re training our abs and two of them I wanted to cover today so I could lead into a really brand new cool killer exercise for you that you can start doing the fact of the matter is the way the core functions we have to have two things we got to make sure that we have a control of rotation or even a prevention of rotation I’ll show you what I mean by that you guys know that you probably heard the ABS help prevent or or cause rotation you turn your body and your torso by Contracting your abs but they also for me more importantly control Andor prevent rotation so you’ve seen me do this sort of chest exercise before but let’s let’s take the chest part out of it and sort of focus instead on the ABS when I come here if I don’t control and contract hard through here everything twists you can just see it kind of lets go all right but if I’m in here and I want to let this thing go back slow okay or if I just want to keep it here my abs really have to fire to hold that there so we know clearly that prevention of rotation is key second thing rotation in what direction you just saw me rotating from the top with a fixed lower body here okay but we can also look at it in a different way what if the top stayed and the bottom was rotating so that brings me to the exercise something I’ve been sort of playing around with we want to have a challenge to our core you guys know about planks great exercise because it it causes a lot of stability reaction throughout the trunk to engage the ABS but what if we had a way to disturb that try to cause rotation that we would have to prevent well that’s where I came up with this move where we use just a plate and a band and all we’ve done is take one of the athlan elastics extreme bands wrap it through a plate however much you can handle 25 35 45 wrap it through and then just tie it to Itself by you know passing it through so what we’ve done is created this contraption here now you want to get in between two suspended benches so anywhere that you can support yourself between two benches you’re going to step through right here with both feet in and then in then you’re going to bring it up here around your hips okay so watch that rebound guys it could be deadly so now you got the the weight suspended here you’re going to come in and get yourself into a plank position now the hell is this weight doing hanging down here well you want to get it moving side to side side to side to side to side now just like that people are going to see that could be a huge challenge for them why it’s hard to talk why because my abs are not just working in a plank but they’re being forced to have to resist rotation left and right left and right so becomes a much harder exercise what can I do to make this even more difficult I can raise one arm up and try to do the same thing okay and same thing here letting it go side to side with one arm up gets really tough and again you can even turn into the side plank here you can hardly see but in here and hold and let it turn now I’ve got side plank oblique activation with the challenge of The Swinging pendulum plank guys definitely not an easy exercise but something H take the F pants off something you can do that would clearly add a new challenge and obey the rules that I say for ab training meaning get your rotation in get your challenge rotation and change the relative direction of it top down or bottom so there you have it if you want to start training your core it doesn’t mean you have to start training it more it means you have to start training it smarter guys if you aren’t already on team athleen make sure you head to athleen right now grab our 90-day training

leaving anything out now before I go guys make sure you do me one thing thumb the video up if you like it leave a comment again two videos a week now so let us know what else you want to see but I do have one other major announcement guys you remember the dorm room challenge we had a lot of guys that stepped up to the plate took a shot at it videotaped themselves and included their video response as I requested on that challenge I told everybody on Facebook if you haven’t seen us over on Facebook guys it’s Facebook ax facebook. com we said that we would give away one bundle pack of our RX supplements for free to the person who did the best job on that that’s $150 value we look through every one of them I was the final judge so if you want to get mad at me this is is the person you’re going to have to Target it at but one guy in particular hubner 92 hubner 92 you can see his video over here I’ll post it up over here he did an incredible job he did 17 reps of that yes there were guys that did more but h92 was the only guy to put that belly of his flat up against the uh the wall each and every time he did a rep he did it that’s tough believe me those extra few inches as you guys know when you’re approaching vertical is really tough if you haven’t seen the dorm room challenge then you can click on that here now and make sure you go over and watch that and you can even try your best too that said guys this is the type of stuff we do with athlet next challenges get you involved give you ways to measure your progress and show you the right way to train ABS as well as
