I want to help you fix your lunge once and for all with a few simple techniques. I hope this helps!

Crunches and sit-ups aren't going to train the core that you would like or need to be strong. Core training is really the core of this program, so let's go over how to train effectively with the three "anti's," and learn the difference between your "core" and your "abs."
