Funny; I think all my ab exercises were making me lopsided front to back, because I didn't do much with the spinal erectors. Used to hate to do back extensions. Now when I do deadlifts and squats, my lower back gets sore; I can tell it's working more. Haven't been doing a calorie deficit, because my natural metabolism is fast, and I have not needed to lose weight, only fat. What I've done is start tracking my ratios, and found I've been eating too many carbs and fat and not enough protein. Trying to really jump up the protein in a day, and lower the other two. Hopefully this will work on the fat. Although, perhaps I am working at some deficit, because I'm always HUNGRY now!
