I do them twice a week. Anymore is too much for me. You don't want them to be too fatigued, because otherwise your core lifts like squats and deads can be dangerous, as the abs are used to stabilise the torso.

I work my abs 6 days a week. Almost everybody at our gym trains them that often 2...abs, in contrast, to the chest, quads or any other muscle don't need much recovery time and can be attacked all the time without feeling overtrained. There are dozens of excercises for the side abs, the side crunches are probably the most common...avoid stick twists (especially) rapid ones which might cause injury according to a study I checked on the net and agree totally with.

vbn...please only post your question once (refer to other thread for answers to this question), but first use Fitbuddy search at the body of the page and if you don't find the answer to your question then please post a new topic rather then waking up 4 yr old threads.
