Abs, glorious Abs, it's hardly t-shirt off weather, but now is the time to get the work done for a big summer. As the famous Milk Tray advert says "All because the lady loves Abs" well they say Milk Tray, but Abs win the day. Abs of course aren’t just for show, they play a massive part in stability, and being able to actively function.
Playing rugby and all the demands that entails, which includes a pretty heavy work load, constant games, injuries, recovery times week in week out, mean that a lot of the gym based sessions I do, hit my whole body. There are some exceptions like rehab of course. But on the whole I get 2 sessions a week in the gym, and these need to cover my key development areas, and get me ready to play. So often spending time focuses on my abs doesn’t happen that often. Of course so many lifts, moves and conditioning elements I do will hit them anyhow. I thought it was time to get an Abs pro in and create a session for you guys.
Let me introduce Celebrity personal trainer, Hendricks Famutimimotivational speaker, American Football player or even wbff pro body builder/European champion... Whatever you know Hendricks as...WE all know him mostly for them ABS!!
On Hendrickfitness.comhe has exercises and diets he went through in order for him to achieve these awesome results but right now we (...) can reveal a sneak preview of what a training session and a diet in a day consist of to obtain such abs and physique! With an off season physique weighing in at 15stones 1lbs with less than 8% spells... MACHINE.
Now this workout isn’t for the weak hearted and surely not for those who make excuses and quit after doing 2 push-ups! But like I have always said, make sure you tailor the work out to your ability, don’t injure yourself, build up to this level. You may need to cut down reps and sets. Soooo........
In the words of the man himself....
LET'S.... GOOOOO.... BABBBYYYYYY!!!
The corner stone of any training program and the pursuit of results are in your diet. Hendricks has put together a quick look at what he does to stay shredded and gain those remarkable results.
