The point here is to vary your routine so your not constantly working the same group of muscles because then you'd be overtraining them. Focus on fewer types of movements and keep your sets short and sweet. Remember, do different workouts each day so that your hitting different areas of your abs.

Work them intensely no more than twice per week, gives them good rest and recouperation time like any other muscle. Muscle is muscle, no matter where it is located. Overloading it to induce growth requires rest for growth. -------------- Failing to plan is like planning to fail!
