How often should one be working out,
especially the abs. Is it too much to be
doing situps everyday?

Hi,
you only need to train your abs the same
amount as any other body part. Twice a
week with 2 sets of 10 - 15 reps for lower
abs, then the same for obliques and then
the same for upper abs.
It is important to remember lower -
obliques - uppers this is to ensure
correct abdominal wall recruitments.
If you want to get a great six pack, all
you have to do is remove fat from around
your abs. Doing ab work will not achieve
this you would have to do 72,000 situps to
remove 1 kg of fat, thats 100 per day for
20 years.
