About Abdominal conditioning

I wrestled in middle and high schools and came to love the strong muscular abs that I've developed. I was also in gymnastics from early on through high school. Now that I'm in college I continue to lift weights (usually in mornings) and condition my abs later in the day.

About this user

I've recently graduated college and taking a break before more schooling. I threw myself into studies (math and physics) and working out hard. I transferred and through myself into succeeding. I loved working out a lot.

Abs are amazing muscles. Despite popular opinion, abs are predominantly slow-twitch fibers. Abs are constantly being worked (abs are worked indirectly in all kinds of weightlifting exercise and directly through abs-specific exercises) and use oxygen efficiently. It's true that the slow- and fast- twitch muscle fibers are distributed differently in people and that exercise can affect this as well. This is why the "high rep vs low rep" abs training debate is so confused. There are more fast-twitch fibers in the abs, but varies from person to person and the kind of exercising the body is conditioned for.

About training. I grew up in wrestling and took abdominal training very seriously. Over time I came to enjoy high rep training. It gave my abs endurance. They didn't wear out easily. Some kids I knew couldn't even do 50 consecutive situps before dying. But they stuck with it and came to do hundreds of situps in a set. (I agree, bent-knee situps are NOT the best.) The point is they conditioned their abs. Also, using weighted and slow-rep sets are absolutely CRUCIAL to developing strong abdominals. (But it doesn't follow that you train abs like you train your biceps--I've seen that comparison all the time and it's a mistaken comparison. While I'm at it--some guys can do lots of pushups and others can't. Nobody says, "Hey only do 8-10 pushups--don't do a 100 cuz'ya'wuldn't do 100 bicep curls now wud ya?")

About taking punches to condition the abs. Boxers and martial artists have done this for centuries. I've (again) got email saying that taking punches do NOT strengthen the abs--meaning specifically the rectus abdominis muscle.) Abs and obliques are not the only muscles that are in the midsection. There are supporting muscles as well. Oh, I'm learning now about the benefits of swiss ball ab exercises for the very reason that there are this stabilizer muscles that must also be trained. From personal experience my capacity to take punches has improved dramatically in the first few months of regular training. Four years later now and my capacity is extremely high. But it's taken years of exercising and punching training to condition my abs to this level.

Yes, I know the stigmas to training this way and seedy subcultures that are there. That's one reason why I've not shared this in college yet. I grew up athletes and we worked hard on our midsections including some great punching workouts. But there's the stigma and so I've by and large remain silent about it in college.

Abdominal training is great. BUT don't forget to work the lower back muscles very hard.
