...Abs, Abs, why can't you stay
Abs, Abs I'd even pay,
Abs, Abs, don't go away,
even if I train you everyday!
So you want know if you can do abs everyday, do you? No one ever asks if they can train back everyday or calves? Actually, I'd think they were crazy if they did. Okay, here's my answer...
There are three primary types of core training:
power
Most of us will generally only train for stability and strength. My philosophy is that you can perform core stability exercises most days of the week. These are planks, bridges, balance exercises, and isometric holds.
You should not perform core strength exercises everyday, so no crunching, leg lifting, twist moves. We have to remember that muscle needs rest to grow, its recommended to get at least 24 hours of rest before training the same muscle group...this includes abs.
Don't turn into that girl that does crunches everyday, but if you want to train core daily switch off stability and strength.
In an earlier poll, you guys said that abs were your least favorite to exercise, so how come you want to know if you can train them everyday? Don't get it...
Oh! You want me to say you don't have to, got it!
