Yeah, I think that shoulder muscles are hot... and so are pecs. Those are the muscles that hold a man up while he's doing the deed and that's my favorite view of my hubs...
Anyway, to answer the question about abs, I find that for my abs, the hardest thing to do ever is the boat pose in one of my yoga DVDs. I have seen variations of it in my ChaLEAN workouts too. You basically lay on the floor, keep your legs together, lift your legs off the floor and maintain pressure against your back on the floor. Then, raise your arms too... it's really hard for me.
Planks are also good. I suck at those, but I'm getting better!0 -
