A little side note for those seeking abs. A lot of people do endless ab specific exercises but in reality it is not needed. In the above workout you will see only one ab specific exercise and it is at the end of the training session, reason being in performing almost all exercise you are using your core(abs) to stabalize your lifts so you are working your abs continuously if you are doing the exercises properly, by the end of the workout your abs have been worked and performing the ab specific exercise should finish them off. I know for me I can do quite a few crunches correctly but at the end of a workout I can not do nearly as many because they are already fatigued. If you are doing crunches, or any exercise for that matter, correctly you shouldn't be able to do more than 10-12 reps if you can increase the weight. When doing abs you should engage them by sucking your belly button to a -hole then see how many you can do. If you are pushing for a six pack you can do more ab specific exercise but don't sit there and perform a million of them incorrectly, by not engaging them as mentioned above you are probably using your hip flexors more than your abs.
