FORTIFY YOUR ABS FROM THE
INSIDE OUT WITH THESE ATYPICAL
ANTI-MOVEMENT EXERCISES.

THERE IS AN ASTOUNDING
LACK OF EDUCATION
regarding the true purpose
of the muscles in your
midsection, and in the
interest of achieving that
ever-coveted six-pack
via countless crunches
and twists, standard
workout programming
has inadvertently
marginalized some vital
training techniques that can
drastically reshape your
waistline from the inside
out — “anti-”exercises.
Instead of initiating
movement, these moves
resist it, tapping into the
deeper musculature of your
midriff, giving you a sixer
you never imagined and
a soreness you will never
forget. Add them into your
routine and enjoy greater
strength, fewer injuries and
a tighter, smaller waist —
for real.
