I have never really trained my Abs before. In the past I have always focused on building mass and explosive-functional power in my training. I am now focusing slightly more on "looking good" and less on performance on the football field. I found this video on Youtube and I am considering doing it twice a week in conjunction with two days in the gym focusing on upper/lower body (full body compound lifts), and one to two days of some at home core workouts (planks and plank variations) what do you think?
The workout is basically as follows:
4 sets of 25 reps per exercise
1.Bicycle crunches
2."flat on floor" hand and feet crunches
3."arms crossed over chest" crunches
4.straight leg lifts
5. twisted waist oblique crunches (left and right)
6. Butt raises (toes to ceiling)
7.shoulder/elbow to knee cross overs (left and right)
8. Legs raised cross-over toe touches
I get the feeling that this guy only does ab and core workouts at home and doesnt spend much time in the gym. I don't know if I will be able to do this full workout as well as my gym routine and some core days. I may have to split this up into two days, instead of doing the whole thing twice. We will see. What do you guys think.
