Quick Total Ab Blast- No Equipment Workout

[@aaronwright6119]

I have done loads of ab exercises on KZbin and this is hands down the best I've done. Really activates the lower abs without activating the hip flexor which is just what I needed. Thanks.

Thanks Doc. I am a 70 year old man, 6'4" 205 lbs who has had herniated discs at L3-L4 and L4-L5 for about 45 years. I have been doing 2 cycles of this series for about 6 weeks. My lower back is now far more stable than it has been in years. I will soon check out your other recommendations in hopes my old body responds to those as well.
