Chase6776, that would be fine if you already have a six pack and you stay fairly active. But not everyone is that lucky. Your abs are fairly hard to develope and recovery time is very quick therefore you should work them more often than that. If you really wanted to you could work them every day. But most people only work them every other day. When working your abs besure to work all angles. Lower, Upper, and Sides

I've done a little of diggin' into this subject and I'm pretty sure that to get your abs responding you should train them more often. Abs recover a lot faster than any other muscle and conseq can be trained more freq. Only if you've already got the 6pack or whatever your striving 4..should you train as easy as once a week.

for lower abs...try knee tucks, hanging leg raises, leg raises on a bench, bent leg raises.
you have to feel the tension on the lower abs with every rep. Do them slowly enough and until u reach failure with every rep.
