Great video and good tip. :) You should analyse a bit advanced version, also-from -standing- position or from feet to the floor, not -only- knees. Good technique, I got to remember that, but there is one more-yes, you should be aware of hip movement and arms position, but in the final stage not extending your body totaly, therefore keeping a bit flexed abs position (exactly because of the back issue) or to visualise it, to be something like angry cat on her/his nails in rounded stance. :) What do you think about that?

Jeff, you used a thick knee pad, though you didn't comment on that. Is that just for knee comfort or for elevating your knees? In any case, I tried using a pair of 4-inch-thick foam yoga blocks. I dug out my neglected ab wheel -- which, like yours, also has the wheels separated a bit, though in my case I had to do the separating myself by disassembling the thing and cutting a small piece of PVC pipe to put inbetween them. It's good to have another ab tool in the arsenal for such a small price.

Hey Jeff something I learned recently was that I was doing a lot of my ab work all wrong because I ended up working my hip flexors more than the abs. I realized this when I saw that I kept my back straight for a lot of ab exercises, rather than curling my body inward and targeting ab contraction.
Could you talk about the iliopsoas muscle group and how it works together with the abs and how you can isolate your ab work from the hip flexors? Thanks!

just asking: what do you think about the kneeling CableCrunch (aka Salam) + the best bodyweight/no equipment ab-excercise for hyperlordose-patients (imo StomachVacuums combined with Hip-Extension and FrogLegged-FunctionCrunch; FrogLegged = knees flared outward to exclude the Hip-Flexors, Function = slowly roll up from top to bottom until LumbarSpine is slightly above the ground; trains up to 3upper compartments of the AbdominusRectus)

Ive been reading a lot of negative comments on BodyBuilding. com about Jeff being fake and a con, and the only people who support him on the forums have only 2-4 posts which are all related to Athlean X.
Most people are saying he never trained the New York Mets and I only found one article on MensFitness about Jeff
Dont get me wrong I use the program too and have bought AX1 NXT and Xero but i'm having my doubts

Thanks Jeff, like always very informative. I'm completing the 2nd month of the Athlean X program and I really love it! I lobbied a friend to workout with me and we can't wait to go to the next Athlean program. I'm trying to incorporate stretching in my weekly routine. what about doing a video for a daily stretching routine to be done before we go to sleep? Thanks,

Jeff you are a big light on nutrition, diet and exercise. Great to hear the truth. healthy natural foods, no fads no diets, and instruction on exercise. My old flat mate lived off peanut butter and vegemite sandwiches and combined with good exercise had an amazing physique. Love the videos. Always use the wheel - now i use it correctly! Thanks

HI Jeff,
Is it possible that the 'best' ab routine can be the only ab routine to start off with? Meaning doing this maybe for 3 sets of 15 or 20? Is there something else you would mix with this for a full ab workout or it this best done as maybe a nightly filler in between other workouts or at the end of the day?
Thanks.

Jeff, I do these from my toes I can see my abs under about a quarter inch of fat so I know once I lose the fat on my belly the muscles the roller hits are going to look great but I'm wondering is what exercises complement the above wheel especially in the lower back? . FYI I do suffer from arthritis in my middle and lower back.

Jeff i think there is bodyparts way more important than the abs. Id love to see more videos about backpain, improving chest or how to hit lats lats proper. Me, and probably a lot of other people watching your videos dont even train abs on a daily basis so your chanel would be way more interesting to us if it werent all about abs.
