Ab Training For Hardgainers

Posted by Jason Ferruggia

Question: What should hardgainers do for their abs?

Answer: Hardgainers do not need any direct ab training. If you are doing a lot of big exercises like squats, standing presses, deadlifts and chin ups, what is doing a few sets of stability-ball crunches going to accomplish that hasn’t already been done? All of those compound exercises involve the abs and all of the core musculature tremendously. For hardgainers, adding in more volume in the form of isolation movements like crunches, reverse crunches, and things like that is just going to cut into your recovery ability and make it harder to pack on a ton of size. And remember, to see your abs your bodyfat has to be very low. That is only accomplished through proper training and diet and has nothing to do with what ab exercises you do or how many sets and reps of them you do. Don't waste your time with thousands of reps of back breaking ab exercises in the hopes of getting a ripped six pack because it's never going to happen.

Train hard.
