6-Pack Abs
At 55.
The way nobody trains them.
Hundreds of situps. Decline situps by the dozen. Still no abs.
I don't train abs like everyone else. That's the whole point.
Abs are muscle — the same cell type as your biceps. Nobody building big arms does hundreds of curls. They go heavy, low reps, and add load over time. Train your abs the same way. The whole method fits on one page.
Who wrote this
The blokes who say "that's not how you do abs" are never the ones with abs.
I'm Joe Ellul. Former Australian Army Officer — and at 55, I get compliments in the gym every week. Pill-free.
Nobody in better shape than me has ever questioned what I do. The ones who actually look the part just nod.
Most men don't train abs at all — so they stay soft and hidden. Train them heavy, like any other muscle, and they build. Get lean through the kitchen and they show. That's the whole trick.
The body's smarter than the fitness industry.

The four stages
Earn the weight. Then add it.
You don't skip levels. Each stage is earned when you can do it clean — no straining, no next-day wreckage.
02
Raises
Straight leg raises and knee raises — knees as high as you can, squeeze hard at the top.
Bodyweight
03
Weighted
Weight on the feet, sets of six. Clear all sets clean, add load, repeat. The part almost nobody does.
Heavy · Low reps

Inverted
Hanging work on the bar. This is where abs stop being hidden and start getting noticed.
