Except for the ab roller and bench press to the neck, I see people doing most of these exercises on a regular basis, especially the curls.

And I must admit that I am guilty of using the Ab Crunch Machine.

When it comes to constructing the ultimate weight training program to build muscle, exercise selection is a very important component.
You build muscle fastest with compound weight training exercises*.
Any bodybuilding program that focuses on machines and isolation weight training exercises is a complete waste of time.

* Compound exercises, like squats, are exercises that involve two or more joint movements. These are usually better overall mass and strength builders
