LMAO, I was thinking the same thing but I didn't want to go there and start that debate. The recuts abdominus is one muscle, there are no upper or lower abs. Prince, it seems like you and I are always in the middle of the upper chest and upper abs debate...lol

Wait you mean no one told you yet?!? Have you been living under a rock or something...of course you can isolate your upper abs and you can even change the shape of your chest from rounded to a perfect square just by changing your grip strength. Originally Posted by Robert DiMaggio

Easiest way to develop your upper abs is to isolate them! Just get on an Ab machine (Sitting crunch machine), lower the seat until the pad is on the upper part of the chest muscles to where if you looked down your chin would immediately hit the pad! make sure the weight is set to where you fatigue around the 6-8 rep mark and crunch away! you are isolating your upper abs, its what i do and it works! good luck!
