Which heavy lifts also train your abs? I haven't been training my abs but I've been doing a lot of lifts. I know a guy who told me he did 100 situps every day for 2 years straight and he has great abs but there must be easier ways right?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Lifts that target abs?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

I find pullups/chinups work the abs, and lots of stuff exercise ball related
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

www.exrx.net has a great directory of exercises, listed by muscle and muscle group.
each exercise also lists target muscles, synergistic muscles, stabilizers and etc.
squats even use your stomach some, it's antagonistic to your spinal erectors

There are still massive amounts of people misinformed on Abs and six packs and so on.
There is no such thing as spot reduction. This means, you can do 10 million situps a day and still have no visible abdominals. Why's this? Because you burn fat all over your body at the same rate. Doing crunches will not maximize fat burn in your abdominals, contrary to popular believe. Sure, it will make them stronger, but people with big bellys are just wasting their time relying on ab exercises.
The answer is your diet and cardio. The #1 component of getting great abs is a good diet. You must cut down your Bodyfat. Once your bodyfat is around the % where you can actually see some of your abdominals, that is when you can start worrying about toning those babies.

The key to abs is low body fat.
Never trained them? Run and they will show.
A lot of lifts are stabilized by your abs, so don't worry about that.
What you can do, is do crunches, situps, leg raises, incline situps, they will all work the abs well.

Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym.
