Juice and Abs?

[starskulker]

Ok this should probably be on the workout board but I am curios of those that are juicing.......Those who really work there abs......Do you do your ab work everyday or every other day or once a week? I am working my abd monday wednesday and friday and am finally getting a 6 pack but am wondering if I should step it up to 5 days or not?

No! Do you train arm's, chest, legs 5 days a week? Anything more and your overtraining.

Just curious...what are you doing for lower abs? i've just recently started working abs (3 weeks) and using a machine that is mostly targetting obliques and would like to know a good workout for lower abs...a machine would be preferable but I havent seen any at my gym.

Train 'em every day unless they are sore.

there are a few muscles that can be trained more than once a week..
calves and abs...

although i feel that once a week is plenty!

alot of people do not realize this but you work your abs more than you think. i work my whole abdominal area only once a month. i'm working my abs during heavy leg presses, standig tricep pushdowns, and many other exercises. your abdominals are no different than any other muscle group on your body. they need the same amount of recovery time as anything else.

your abs really do get hammered throughout your other workouts like bigtravis said. i work them only twice a week, and only do 4 sets each workout. I do it for a strong core though, not for show. If you want to work them ed or eod you can, but the only real way to bring them out is through diet.

i do abs twice a week...they get enough stimulation from jogging and the rest of your workouts. Think of it this way..how many of you keep the abs tight while doing anything in the gym....i think we all do.

I do them twice a week but if I'm bored on Sunday I will go do cardio and abs again.

The only reason I do juice is so my abs can look pretty

everyone else too right?
