    Yes, as long as you get beyond the first painful few times. If you can find time to take pilates, or do it online, those are amazing rigorous ab exercises, and this one has been already changing my tummy:

    Abdominal muscle is skeletal muscle.

    dont worry as much about working abs until you are around 15% or lower bodyfat, they wont show up! take that time and bench press or squat!

    e1: btw if you are squatting and dont feel it in your abs, you are not squatting well!

    e2: who wants smooth muscles anyways, rippling muscles look sooo much better!

    Pretty much agree with this guy. You can do abs everyday though
