“What We Do For Abs:  In CrossFit, we don’t do abs. Why?  Because we do not do abs.  Don’t freaking ask about it again.  I’ve been doing CrossFit for years and have never done abs.  Not once.  Call it midline stabilization or call it a cash-out if you must, but just remember: We. Don’t. Do. Abs.”

  • Keep a solid plank, no worming
  • Keep a consistant cadence, no resting on the top
  • No hand release
