    I do them a lot nowadays...not sure I can say if it works. I can feel my abs a lot more now that I am focusing on them 3 days per week, but they are still buried under fat. Working on getting my BF% down.

    They work! I use an exercise ball, my back does not like the floor and I am starting to see definition in my abs.

    How do you complete these on an exercise ball?

    I have an exersice ball as well they are great.
    Plant your feet and lye down with your back on the ball and do crunches.
    You can also hang onto a table or somethign and lean back and do the plank.
    If you do some everyday you will see results. well i sure did!
    Good Luck

    They do work, as long as I do them often, also other types of core exercises.
    Oh n krista010105- crunches are where you lay down and with your abs (tummy) tight, go up shoulder hight, where your shoulder blaides are off the floor. And I believe reverse crunches is where you are laying down with your legs in the air and you lift your hips up off the ground. hopes that helps
