    Wow! Thanks for this vid. Watched this before doing abs today and realized i was working basically my arms and quads during my cable crunches. Fixed it now thanks to you. Your vids rock!

    Why such a short movement? It's like doing half reps when doing barbell curls.

    I really like your training sessions, they are helping me a lot.
    My biggest issue is eating and drinking.
    I don't eat fat or drink any soda.
    What should I consume?
    Thanks a lot for your time

    Could I do this with a bowflex? I'm following every vid you've posted, from nutrition to workouts! Kinda like a Fitness program. I'm mainly following but getting little tips here and there.

    Hey Rob great videos! Very informative. I wanted to ask you, what do think is the key to building muscle symmetry and how would you correct symmetrical imbalances? i.e. left pec larger than right. Hope to hear from you soon! thanks again

    Hey Rob!
    How often a week do you do your abs work out?
    I've heard people say to do it as often as possible and some say just once or twice a week. What's your opinion on that?
    Cheers and awesome videos! Keep going like that! Love it!

    Good Sir, I just want to ask you.. are sit ups a waste of time?

  • @bilvis48
    @bilvis48 12 лет назад +1

    The guy is in great shape...but he is incorrect. The abdominal muscles are just like any other muscle and when exercised with additional weight other than your natural body weight...they will without question, thicken, broaden, and round out. When a fit person does regular crunches or flat-back sit-ups, you will see seperation but the abs remain relatively flat.Whereas weighted crunches or sit-ups will produce abs that resemble small biceps when viewed from a profile point of view.

    Hey Rob a question: I do the same exercise but I notice that your range isnt that extensive throughout the movement, whereas I get in a kneeling position and pull all the way down until my elbows hit the floor. Is this wrong/better/worse/doesnt matter ? Also, should I be concentrating on reps as opposed to pulling heavier weight with this particular exercise ? Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work !

    @minzy102 11 лет назад

    How long have you been doing workouts for? Unless I was a body-builder, I wouldn't want to go as far as you have done. If you do too much, I don't think it looks good at all. But still, well done!

    @mreedy02 10 лет назад

    i have a question for anyone that could answer this... my diet is on par for the most part (9-10% body fat). In the past, i would only do crunches, which is prob why i only have the top two abs showing... my question is, should i just start focusing on the lower part to catch them up and if so, what's some of the better routines to sculpt the lower ab region.. also, should i lay off the upper region until my lower region is somewhat caught up?

    • @oklahomasupercell
      @oklahomasupercell 10 лет назад +1

      For lower abs I do DB leg raises. Plain ole leg raises did nothing but you can start with that to get the form down then add weight. Dont stop the upper work.
      All my ab work is done with heavy weight to build mass exc. for the obliques I do BW or very light cable woodchoopers.

    • @luismgodinez
      @luismgodinez 10 лет назад +1

      You want to add weight to the leg raises, this works great. 1. Get a dumbbell, start with 10lbs. Leg raises only work when you lift your legs from parallel position to the level of your head and do nothing from perpendicular to parallel positions. Get your tailbone to CURL. 3sets of 10 2. Watch your sugar consumption especially high glycemic Sugar AND Carbs. Remember blood sugar gets store as fat.

    @citychap888 12 лет назад

    A FEW POINTS: 1) He is a World Fitness Champion.. just weeks away from competition (so more shredded than normal), so basically his body is in the top 1% of physiques for his catagory!!; 2) YOU can achieve what he has!... his muscluar structure is quite normal, just that you can SEE more of it (ie the abs); 3 Respect to this guy.. he wasnt born that way, it was hard work and dedication!!! (ps the guy in the background is like.. "damn, my gf will be fucking this guy in the club later" hahaha)

    Hello there, have you considered "Musclegends" (look on Google)? There you will find a useful free video demonstrating how you can gain noteworthy muscles very fast. This made it easier for James to overcome his bodybuilding stagnation and consequently build chiseled muscle with no fat super fast. It might work for you also.

    Your videos are great man, great demos, really good (and accurate) info. However... your long winded explanations kinda lose me and I find myself losing interest and skipping forward to the actual demo. I know you have info to get across... but maybe find a way to talk and demonstrate or something... Make a 5:30 minute video more like 2 or 3 if you cut out the fluff. Just my opinion.
