Is doing abs counterproductive to chest?

[rogor1]

I read that Vince Gironda thought you should not do abs while trying to build chest. Something about that it shocks the solar plexus. I'm not even sure if I have that right. Any thoughts on that?

did he say how it shocks the solar plexus and what sort of negative effect it would have when trying to build chest? i don't see the correlation. the solar plexus is a large nerve center in the abdominal cavity that controls adrenal secretion and intestinal contraction.
