How much ab work do you do?

[onebratt08]

I teach 3 classes a week, all that involve ab work - it's not necessarily doing the moves I'd like to do for myself (like hanging leg lifts and decline bench reverse crunches), but I think it suffices as my abs are usually sore. Sometimes, I might do a few stomach vacuums on non-class days.

I do abs once a week and split them into exercises for upper, lower, obliques. However, after each cardio, I do light ab work (works out to 2-3 times a week, depending on the week's schedule) By light, I mean the following:
12 each ab vaccums, pelvic tilts, bun lifts, crunches, oblique curls with lots of stretching in between.

I have also been taking yoga/pilates once a week for core and balance. But that will be ending soon for the summer.

i teach ab classes as well! i teach 4 "washboard ab" classes a week for 30 min each. i also teach other classes that end with abs.....i do the exercises with my class and on the days i dont teach abs i do weighted ab exercises. i have noticed myself that my abs are really hard and firm, but i am still weighting on my 6-pack!!! it is slowly but surly getting there!!

i do abs three times a week. my abs aren't very built so my routine is usually VERY focussed and slow vups, crunches and bicycle crunches. i usually do 10-12 sets total and then do 20 minutes of advanced pilates. it's really effective for me and also works the transverse abdominus nicely

2-3 times a week.
I prefer less volume, using resistance.

4 times a week but I split upper, lower, obliques and I add back extensions without weight in this routines. I also focus and breathe really deeply when I'm doing my workout.

I don't wanna get the 6packs, juste a line and firm abs

[squat_princess]

I focus on abs 2 times a week. I do reverse crunches on the bench, leg lifts, hanging leg raises,obliques on the ball, bicycle crunches, and then finally ankle taps. What is this vaccuum thing you guys are talking about?

[skiezik]

I do not train my abs at all. The only thing that will get you that six pack you always wanted is a clean clean clean diet!

[ossizen]

3x a week with weighted crunches.

[Rachel_n_SD]

almost never. squats and deadlifts have built up my abs plenty, i dont need isolation work on them.

[arose70]

haha! I don't ever train abs either . MAYBE once a month for funsies.

[Liddy]

I train my abs maybe once a week?
