How do I define my lower abs?

master2976 Posts: 14 Joined: 2002/12/26	2003/01/12, 04:32 PM I work on my abs at the end of my workouts but I've had trouble getting definition in my lower abs. Most of the things I do only work the upper abs and obliques. Any ideas of how to define my lower abs more?

Variations are Roman chair, bicycles, etc. And then of course there is the little matter of your diet. Without diet, the lower abs will not show easily. One of the last things to show. The upper abs will always show first. Takes pretty much dieting to get the lowers really showing. -------------- The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary!
