I've seen people doing ab exercises on pulley machine at the gym, was wondering if anybody knew any of these exercises thanks

Attach a two handed rope to the upper pulley, Get on your knees, hold the rope with two hands in front of you, and do the crunch towards the floor. Come up slowly. Sorry, but I have a hard time explaining exercise in writing. -------------- Scales are for dead weight: We are not dead yet! Still trying to find out how to do the Hollywood Free Press.

	2005/02/22, 01:55 PM Justin go to health resources, then click fitness resources, then click abs and obliqies. Scroll down to "specific exercises" All the FT ab exercises are there with pix and descriptions. BB1 posted this link a while back I think. http://www.steelfitness.com/beta/training/manabs/abmain.htm It was pretty good. -------------- Dyslexics of the world...UNTIE!!!!!! Charlie
	2005/02/22, 02:19 PM google "abs boot camp" Its another BB1 posted in the exercise journal I think. I found the link but you know the google links are a mile long and skew the post here. -------------- Dyslexics of the world...UNTIE!!!!!! Charlie
