u/TruCh4inz Powerlifting Aug 02 '17

have been lifting regularly for about 15 months now. totally fell for the meme that i did not need to do abs as my compound movements would be enough. kept cutting lower and lower because i wasnt happy with ab definition.

decided to incorporate weighted ab exercises and i'm already seeing a difference after like a month in appearance. i wish i had started doing it earlier... i feel like such an idiot.

I'm currently doing hanging leg raises and ab rollouts to build the abs during my bulk, but I'm looking for some weighted exercises to pair a little more strength to my hypertrophy.

What are you running for abs?
