Abs everyday?

seekinfo · 06-01-2005, 09:46 AM

latly i have been doing abs everyday and have been seeing some ok results, but i have been told by many that what i am doing is point less doing abs everyday gets you no where, but i was just thinking if im not trying to get my abs bigger, wouldt it be better to work them everyday with low set but extremmly high reps?

The people who have been telling you it's pointless are right bro, once maybe twice a week, and this is only my belief, but super high rep anything is pointless.

would you train chest every day? Abs are a muscle also, making them bigger is a good thing. I train mine heavy twice a week.

What about if your trying to bulk up your abs, get them nice and thick.
What exercises, reps, and how many days would you suggest?

so the statement that your abs heal faster than other muscles is a myth?

I train them everyday and I have way better abs then anyone who does em twice a week. YOu guys don't know anything. If you want the pack you gotta do abs everday and do cardio everyday and have a good diet.

We dont know anything? Abs are predominantly diet and cardio, they have to do with having a low body fat. Why would anybody train their muscles every day? Training abs everyday has basically nothing with having a 6 pack.

but hdogg are you saying yu want big abs??? cuz you did say making abs are a good thing right? so would haveing a 38 inch waist of abs be a good thing?

i'm not saying for a 6 pack. 6 packs are everywhere. I'm talking 8 or 10 pack. If you want that it can't all be diet. YOu have to do atleast 5 days a week of ab exercises. Me I do 6-7 days of 20-30 minutes of abs.

I personally do abs about everyday. I have within the last months turned my physique around. From my results it defenitely doesn't hurt to do them often.

lol, whoever said 20-30 minutes of abs a day has way way way to much time on their hands. me, 3-4 times a week, about 5 sets for upper abs, 6 sets for lower.
