The Front Squat:

The squat is tops (along with deadlifts) as one of the most effective overall exercises for stimulating body composition changes (muscle gain and fat loss). That’s because exercises like squats and deadlifts use more muscle groups under a heavy load than almost any other weight bearing exercises known to man.

Instead of the typical ab exercise routines that we see so often with crunches, situps, leg lifts, etc… I would like to give you better options for metabolism-boosting, high intensity, fat burning workouts that actually work your entire body while also working your abs.

I’m going to show you an example of one of my favorite ab routines that doesn’t really include any direct ab work at all. It’s in a super-set format, which means you’ll move from one exercise to the next with little or no rest.
