Bicycle Crunches dangerous?

Options
I read an article yesterday about how bicycle crunches can damage your abs and it's been bothering me ever since because I noticed I feel more of a burn with bicycle crunches and would hate to cut them out. You can read the article here: http://thediamethod.com/blog/do-this-not-that-bye-bye-bicycle-crunches/

Can anyone agree to this person's article about BC's? Are they really so damaging?

    It's a blog by a person writing specifically about pregnancy and post-partum exercise. Another internet "expert" with no qualifications listed .... take her advice as seriously as you deem appropriate.

    Exactly as stated by brianpperkins. I also noticed comments are closed on the blog post (lots of hokey blogs do this so that people can't openly refute the info they post. Also looks like they're selling their own workout dvds. Willing to bet they're bashing these exercises so that people will buy their stuff instead.
