starting new ab workwout

angelface Posts: 1 Joined: 2003/07/25	2003/07/26, 10:30 AM i read on this website that it's important to work all 3 parts of the abs on the same day, 3 sets each area. my question is do i do all 3 upper sets together, them move to next area or do i do 1 set of upper, lower, oblique, then back to upper for 2nd set and so on until i've done 3 sets of all areas?

It is not necessary to execute all motions on the same day or in any particular order or with any particular set/rep scheme. -------------- "Don't follow leaders and watch your parking meters!" -- Bob Dylan
