The Best Ab Workout for Women to Build Strong, Defined Abs

Image
Your abs respond to strength training like any other muscle.  If you train them with effective exercises, focus on getting stronger (increasing the resistance), and get lean enough, they become “toned.”  This is the opposite of what most women do, though.  Instead, they do high-rep circuits and avoid weighted ab exercises, which is a great way to break a sweat but a poor way to develop your ab muscles. Keep reading to learn why. Key Takeaways The best ab workout for women includes exercises like the cable crunch, captain’s chair knee raise, and ab wheel rollout. Most women only need to train their abs 1-2 times per week to see results, and this usually only takes a few minutes at the end of your normal workouts. Ab workouts alone won’t give you a defined midsection—you also need to lower your overall body fat percentage.

We Upgraded Our Fish Oil

Image
If you’re already a card-carrying Triton hardliner and don’t fancy a supplement sermon:  We upgraded our fish oil to VivoMega oil produced by the Norwegian industry leader GC Rieber.  Same dose, same price, even better oil.  I Want This Legion But if you want to know why we changed before splashing out, keep reading. Previously, we used a high-quality reesterified triglyceride fish oil that was molecularly distilled, Friend of the Sea certified, and third-party tested.  It was a legitimately good product, especially compared to most other options on the market. But last year, we found a raw material that’s measurably better across every metric we care about: freshness, purity, taste, and certifications. And because of our economies of scale, it was about the same price. So we made the switch. Hence, Triton 2.0 . “But how much fresher, purer, tastier, and more certified?” Well, on the freshness front: The standard measure of fish oil freshness is...
