I guess by ab excercises I would mean, in this case, core excercises training core muscles etc. hypertrophy An increase in the size of a tissue or organ due to growth of individual cells without an increase in the number of cells. Normally you wouldn't associate significant muscle cell enlargement with core muscles, perhaps only with your rectus abdominus/six pack. Having said that, if want to increase the size of your abs, go right ahead, nothing technically wrong with that.

would u be able to explain "why" you wouldnt give abs the same hypertrophy training as the rest of the body? it is a muscle just like every other muscle, it does not get exessivly used during the day such as muscles like the calves. theirfore it shouldnt have any different special treatment or training

this might be a really obvoius point to make but I've yet to find the "correct" answer... BUT, doesn't how inflated the swiss ball is (i.e. to what pressure, how bouncy it is) affect how difficult these exercises are? The prone walk out must get harder as the pressure increases (as the ball is more "wobbly") but I imagine the drop & recover is made easier by having the ball inflated to high pressure (more "upthrust"). Is there a general rule for inflation?

its pretty good,im trying and works really good.

Don't treat ab exercises like general lean muscle building exercises (hypertrophy training) which generally uses a 8-12 rep range. Do as many reps as you can in good form until you can't do anymore, as in, the target ab muscle groups gets too tired to continue. Continuing on beyond this point will only lead to injury. Try 60-90 secs rest at first and experiment with yourself to see how much rest you need. 2 mins+ would generally be considered to be too much.

Can anyone tell me how many reps per exercise we should be doing and how many sets total? How much rest time between exercises etc?
