whats your abs routine

[E_Scapegoat]

i was just curious what everyone does for abs, how frequently, sets, time, exercises etc. Right now i do:

3 sets situps
3 sets leg raises
1 v-up
3 sets weighted crunches
1 weighted plank
100-150 broom twist (dont think much oblique work is beneficial or nessesary)

[Bman00]

I do a circuit of :

crunches
crunch w/ a reverse crunch
v-up kicks
side crunches

3 sets w/ a min rest in between

[dirletra]

personaly, once a week
you use your abs in so many exercises just to stabalize your body
i can see mine

what a v-up

[E_Scapegoat]

its where you do kind of a leg raise and situp at the same time, balancing your self, and your goes from flat to a V shape

not really pertaining to the question, but iv heard that many pros dont train there abs for the simple fact that the whole midsection gets alot of indirect stress during other lifts and whith the combination of low bf as well as their training intensity and supps/aas, they can look like they do without abbdominal training....just something that came to mind.

3 sets of incline crunches at max incline with a medicine ball. thats it for me but I have good genetics in the abs department.

im so weak i cant do a sit up....so i need ab training for now. I must have done 200 crunches last night though, i just couldnt feel the burn after i did the crunches....so now im paying for that today, dearly. Feels kind of funny having my stomach hurt, but not really hurt. Im sure they will feel stronger tomorrow though

HAHAHA my abs are always sore after my ab routine... well the day after,

I do weighed situps 10kilos, 3x40 of em on some elevated bank type of thing (i have no idea what its called)
then i do 3x35 v ups (explained above) i believe their v ups. (they hurt thats for sure)

and i do that 3 times a week, plus the indirect stress from the other weights and my chair i sit on the computer i rock up n down all day and if you look at it you can see the abs contracting.

My abs are coming through too pretty easy to see actually

Training abs= waste of time, unless you are in it for athletic perfomance.

Just hold your legs in the air when u are doing pullovers and flys.

They get hit residually with good form.
