A New Ab Exercise!!!!!

[SouthernLord]

The Shovel Lift. I tried these out today and I felt muscles firing in my trunk that I did not know existed. This one is a keeper for sure.

Shovel Lift, Start Position

Shovel Lift, end position

45 pounds for three sets of eight for each side was enough for me.

Here is where I got the idea for these. It explains the lift. Awesome article btw.

That's where I feel it today

Your obliques can never be too strong or too big. Unless you plan on prancing around in a speedo for the admiration of strange men.

What if I want to prance around in a speedo in front of a mirror for my own entertainment?

As a matter of fact, I think that is how I am going to dress for squat day today.
