Overview

The weighted diagonal pike is an exercise targeting the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. It is a of the traditional pike, which is performed with the body in a straight line from head to toe. In the weighted diagonal pike, a weight is held in the hands and the body is piked diagonally, with the weight held in front of the body. This exercise is more challenging than the traditional pike and can help to build strength and definition in the abdominal muscles.
