Abdominal Training


Abdominals are a different type of muscle group to train. Generally, you don't want the muscles to be too bulky  so as to maintain a slim or narrow waist. But it is a big mistake to train them radically different than other muscles because ALL muscles respond to resistance by growing larger and stronger. Instead of doing the traditional routines of endless sets of high rep exercises I recommend the following routine:
Abdominal Crunch Machine 1 set of 12-15 reps
Roman Chair Situps with weight resistance if needed  1 set 12-15 reps
Side oblique twists preferably on oblique machine 1 set 12-15 reps
All sets to be taken to complete muscular failure.
