Good ab training doesn't need to be complicated to be effective. And 2007 Europa Super Show 202 and under seventh place finisher Jimmy Canyon, owner of some of the deepest abs in the business, breaks it down as he takes you through an intense ab workout.
CANYON‘S AB TRAINING TIPS
* “I like variety for abs. Too many people just do one or two exercises. I usually do four each workout.”
* “I do two leg raises and two crunches, and I‘ll include some machine exercises.”
* “Keep your reps in the high range, but not too high. I think 20 is the perfect number.”
* “I train abs once per week in the off-season, but I hit ’em every other day precontest.”
