Sit ups or Polates

[Poseidon]

I've been doing alot of core work recently where I'm doing about 20mins of Polates every day. It really does burn the abs etc alot so I got thinking, why would I need to do abs during weights days if I'm doing Polates? what you guys reckon?

Pilates?

If you can handle more than by all means do it.

+1

If you are training them twice on weight days now without a bad reaction, keep it up.. it's really tough to overtrain abs, and you'll be better for it.

That sounds like good advice, damn, I was just looking for an exuse to slack on weight training days lol!

Every muscle needs a recovery period.

True enough Simco.

they say the skin is the largest organ on a man's body -- they obviously haven't met me.

Are you being serious? Try heavy deadlifting or squatting.
