I am in week 6 of my ab routine and i was wondering about twisting crunches. Is one rep up and to the right then down and up to the left? or is it counted as a rep each time i go up? I have been doing it so that i go up 30 times alternating which side i twist to. It is really tough to do that many. I've never had problems with the ab workouts to this extent b4. Is it just getting that much harder?

One repetition is one twist to EACH side. If it's too many reps then do less and work your way up slowly.
