Hi guys just a quick thought of what's the best core/abdominal exercises out there to do. Thanks

The 80/20 rule thread stickied makes great points on how people make the mistake of spending more time on minutia than things that matter. So I'll make the topic I wish I had read years ago: The 5 things that actually matter 1) Eating the correct amount of calories 2) Consuming enough protein...

Do you do isometric exercises? Then please post your results here in this thread. This is for a project I'm doing, to come up with a math formula to estimate isometric strength at different weight loads. Say you can do a Dead Hang (hanging in a pull-up bar) for at most 100 seconds. The next...
