    I do the bicycles and that works the entire area (obliques, lower abs, upper abs) I also use the roman chair with a 45lb plate across my chest to build them up (I'm a powerlifter, not a bodybuilder so that might not be the best if your trying to keep a trim waist)

    Haha..you kill me. Now here's my similar response:

    I'd give you my ab workouts, but I wouldn't want you looking as good / better than me, now would I?

    they all work for me

    all ab excerises work for me...however only if i go slow and flex hard on every rep. I see alot of people doing 200 or so crunches..but there are going like a bat out of hell...slow it down...feel it..make sure it is only the abs working..not momentum..helping you out.

    like i said..slow and squize..this should put and end too all your probs...

    that's the way i go too. slow and squeeze at the top. i do sets of 15 or so on each exercise. i think i picked that up from Bill Phillips.

    Does your gym have Swiss Balls? They are killer for abs, they support your lower back and at the same time conform to your bodies shape. It actually gives you a greater ROM during crunches (which are much better than situps as your hip flexors don't come into play during the execution of the exercise).

    If you're not feeling the workout it means you are either your abs are getting more tone and strong (in which case increase the intensity by combining more lower movements between your crunches) or you are not putting the effort into your routine (then focus on contracting each rep maximally, and moving slowely). Either way I think the hanging leg raises are best and as for floor exercises the bicycle incorporates more ab muscle then other crunches. Don't be afraid to work them!

    There were some good Ab Workout Exercises in the Muscle and Fitness magazine issue last month. Four exercises. I think they were, hanging knee raises, normal crunch, cable crunch and (sitting on the end of a bench with your feet out and your back at a 30 degree angle, and bringing your feet in as you raise your back a litte) exercise. LOL...yeah, i don't remember the name of that last one :P

    I don't know about the rest of you guys, i've been doing those 4 for a while, and it feels good.

    Anywho, that's what's that.

    Thnx
