Its a routine I learned from a powerlifter (who has a 900 competition squat) to build up core strength. basically, grab a decline bench and ramp it up so that you've got at least a 60 degree or more angle, really steep. Slowly lower yourself about 1/2 way down, to where you really feel resistance, then hold in that position for a slow count of 5, then bring yourself back up. thats one rep, start with 5x5 reps, then if you can do all that, next workout either adds more reps or weight. It doesnt sound like much, but if you do all 5 sets, with a slow 5 count on each rep, you'll be shaking like a leaf by the time you are done. I do that 1x per week, and thats the only ab routine I've done for the past 5 or so years. I do 5 sets of 8-10 reps with a 45lb plate, and thats the whole thing. The cool thing is that it helps your deadlift and squat as well.

Dig the routine. I've adopted it as my own
I can't quite get all 5 sets with the incline that high though.
about 50-55 degrees is as high as I can go. I'll get 60 in a few weeks though.
