Looking closer at Cruz's abs I'd say they're shooped anyway.

Arnold in his prime never even had a six pack.

Give me a bigger chest and arms instead any day m8s.

It's Ireland. Who's gonna see your abs anyway.

Abs are pretty desirable for those in contact sports m8.
Stops you crumpling up like a used tissue when you're punched in the stomach. Loads of specific exercises thrown in to the circuit training to develop them. Back 20+ years ago we used to do a held sit up exercise. A lot harder then it sounds tbphwy. I doubt I could do 5 normal sit ups now.

A plank or crunch?

Possibly. You do normal sit-ups and then mid sit-up session you stop about 2 inches off the ground and hold it , then you move to 5/6 inches off the ground and hold it. Then you go back to 2 inches and hold it.
Loads of varieties of that.

And you were replying on his point. Not everything has to be an argument like!

I do sometimes do kettlebell sit ups. I find sit ups very easy though. I remember in school when I played rugby I used do sit ups in my room and could do an infinity of them.
These days I use a 20kg kettlebell and can still do a 100.
That said, I don't have the genetics for abs and I like to eat.

You ever do the one where they drop a medicine ball on your tummy from a great height?
