I know that abs benefit from diet much more than a good gym sesh.. but I'm always looking for new exercises to change it up in the gym. SO. What's the single best ab workout/exercise you've come across?

    pallof press and renegade row are my two favorites

    but probably dragon flags and front levers to be honest.... I just have limitations- so I stick to the others.

    Ab wheel is crazy hard to if you are on your toes- legit difficult.

    Do big compound lifts like squats, deadlifts, OHP, etc. focusing on engaging your core. Planks and all the millions of variations are great as well.
  • Ahh I love it. I'm googling all of these. You guys are awesome! I've got the compound lifts down Jen :).. it'd do me good to sneak in some more planks.
