    Way too much ab work. 95% of abs are made in the kitchen.

    its only 20 mins worth, that and i want to really get them developed, im running dbol and test prop with t3 so i figure the extra work will go to better results,

    what would you suggest to hit the abs hard

    What is your overall goal? For ab development besides die.t swiss ball crunches, Russian Twist, Pallof press http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yca1J...eature=related are good ab exercises, but IMO the two best ab exercises are squats and deadlifts.

    Move your triceps to shoulder day. I'd lower abs as well.
    Leg extensions-I'd either eliminate or only do at end of leg workout lightly for 20-30 reps.
    Do proper squats to start leg day-barbell ase to floor.-replace dumbell squats with lunges.
    Start shoulders with Military presses-can't believe they are not in your routine.
    Chest-too many flys, Only do one type of fly for chest day. Do dumbell flat press.
    Move back to tuesday and eliminate abs that day. Do seated row, lat pull down(close grip) and bentover rows.

    Increase your rep range to 8-12 except legs-make them 15-20.
