Biden is the greatest President ever.
If your number one concern with exercise is how you look rather than the practical benefits conveyed thereby, then you need to reprioritize. Abs not being visible does not mean the underlying developed core strength isn't there.
Planks are objectively the best exercise for overall core strength, but only if youre doing them correctly. If youre not contracting the abs then youre just using your shoulders and hip flexors to stay up, and obviously thats not what you want. The biggest downside to planks is that holding one position gets boring as you get stronger. So you should experiment with different types of plank exercises once youve developed enough to stay raised for a minute with no issues.
I am like 30 seconds. I don't think I can get 1 min any time soon. lol
In 2022, I quit the gym after a few months of seeing no progress (at one point, went about 5 times a week during my lunch break). Around the time I quit, I saw a snapchat challenge of doing 100 pushups a day. I randomly decided to do this challenge. Started off with actually doing 100 a day (although I would gradually increase), but eventually switched to every other day since your muscles are supposed to have rest. I also started drinking smoothies and eating a sandwich for dinner. I dropped a lot of weight fast, and my triceps looked ripped. That was the only thing I changed about my lifestyle. But my arms were getting noticeably toned in just 1 month or 2 compared to not really seeing a change after several months in the gym. Probably like half a year if not more.

Congrats on that change. Push-up are my bane since I am so overweight compared to my arm power. They are super hard lol.
If you have a tummy abs will not show up. So unless you are thin are these things pointless?
I meant sit-ups not pushup.
