from Eat Train Prosper · host Aaron Straker | Bryan Boorstein
In part eight of this series, we wrap up our Training series with a focus on abs and calves. We discuss different movement patterns for abs, like flexion and rotation, we emphasize using full range of motion - just like any other movement pattern. We also cover training our preferred frequency, volumes, and share our favorite exercises. Then we dive into preferred methods for programming calves, stressing proper exercise selection and the benefits of stretch-mediated hypertrophy for calves.
