    If youre overdoing it- then I overdosed.

    In 2011 once a month i would have a 3000 (varied style) crunch weekend.

    You don't need to do them every day... treat them like all the other muscles that would work out. Maybe only do an ab workout routine every other day, or just a couple times a week.

    Also, a lot of people don't even do typical ab workouts. They work their abs by doing other exercises like deadlifts and things like that and they have really nice tummy's.

    Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred and 6 Week 6 Pack work them every day....

    I never seen her workout so I can't debate this program...does anyone know what every day workout consists of for abs?

    BTW Show me someone who works their abs everyday and have amazing abs...and I will show you 100's of people who do not work abs(isolation wise) everyday and have amazing abs....

    It's a myth that society is brainwashed to think because they need to sell a product....just my opinion

    Also Why is it I know people personally who works abs everyday...and their abs are still incognito.... :frown:

    I don't know details about 6W6P, but the 30 DS doesn't do hardcore isolation-it's only 1 minute in each of the three circuits. ;)

    I personally just do the ab machine three-four days a week, do planks a couple times a week, and do a 3-5 minute ab workout a couple days a week. Unless I repeat the 30 DS-in which case it adds those 3 total minutes (or 6 if I run through two levels).

    Anti-lock Brake Systems?
    You should work them anytime you feel the need to stop your car quickly.
    Remember, no need to pump the brakes, even (or especially) in slippery conditions; the ABS does that for you.
