needsize's ab routine?

[Texas Ranger]

Originally posted by needsize I'm doing 5 sets of 8 reps with a 45lbs plate, only doing them 1x per week Mikeyboy, I'll give that a try, I've been thinking about it and I think I curl forward a bit, to take the strain off my lower back

Needsize, do you still do them once a week even while dieting??

I'm curled a bit when I do them also.

videos? Where?

BTW - this sounds great Needsize. I have a 4 day cycle. I do 100 speed crunches on day 1 and 3 along with 50 weighted sidebends, and I can put this on day 2.

Try this one, this is the only ab exercise I've done for a couple of years now, and it totally transformed my abs
Start on a decline bench, slowly lower yourself until your around halfway down, to the point where you feel the most resistance. Hold that for a slow count of 5, then slowly bring yourself back up. That's one rep, aim for say 5 sets of 5 reps, to start, once you can do that, either add more reps or start to add weight. My abs now stick out to the point where I can see them pretty well even when carrying a lot of bodyfat. This was taught to me by a nationally ranked powerlifter, as a means of strengthening my abs to improve my squat, so it has that benefit as well as building wicked looking abs.[/quote]
GREAT routine!!
