    I would give them some stretches and focus on another group of muscles or do some cardio. If you really feel like doing some abs keep them set alight, but I’d say give them a day to rest and maybe get back to them tomorrow.

    u should only work them once a week…twice max but lik monday and thursday if u do lol
    but id wait till monday…abs are a lik any other muscle…they need rest

    edit
    these people are complete idiots…like wtf? you really want this person to overtrain? by giving her fake information

    btw just saying
    you should def do biased exercises…they work better and have your reps from 12-15 per SET struggling on the last reps and not able to do the last rep
    whether its 12 or 15 doesnt matter you just cannot do it
    then rest 2 minutes and do it again 6-9 sets max
    but you should have 3-4 exercises in with it to…so that 6-9 sets must be divided likewise like
    exercise 1-3 sets
    #2-3 sets
    #3-2 sets
    #4-1 set
    so yah…id tell you the exercises but im in this area to go to bed so…yeah…and youll prob pick someone else as best answer so id be wasting my time anyways

    I do a bit of abs nearly every day. If I’m sore from the previous day, I just do a small less that day. If you’re really really really sore, you might have overdone it a bit yesterday, and take it simple today.

    Wait a day or even two. And eat a lot of protein like fish and chicken during those two days of rest, then the muscles will build up and be ready to get larger for the next work out!

    When I took a fitness class in college (in this area 2 years ago) the professor said the best business to do is alternate workouts. Like do strength training one day and cardio the next day, or arms one day and abs the next, etc. She thought it was terrible to do 2 days in a row of the same workout.

    If it hurts that means this is the first time that you are doing ab workout or that you have not done neough stretching.
    No problem, you can work out today also if you like to. But initiation off with in this area 3 minutes of effective stretching, and do the neccesarry amount of Ab work out, no problem

    No you shouldn’t!let them rest and grow.
    but try this for an ab workout…

    10 situps
    10 V-ups (Upset your hands to your toes, but crunch your body so that they meet midway in the air)
    10 lemon squeezers (Position yourself sitting up, place hands at side, and go your torso back into a laying position while extending your legs honest ahead. Now just row your legs to a bend while crunching toward them w/ your torso, then go back to laying position. repeat process)
    10 back hypers (lay on stomach, basically a reverse cruncher)
    10 Leg lifts (Lay on back, lift honest legs to 45 degree angle, then result in back to ground)
    30 seconds of bicycles (Lay on ground, and mimick a bicycle pedal motion w/ your legs)
    10 side crunchers each side
    10 regular crunchers
    30 seconds of flutter kicks (Lay on back, keep both legs honest. Lift them up bairly, now alternate linking raising each leg a small bit and brining it back down. This one is tought at first, but after a week it will be simple. Try to reckon of being a swimmer while doing this one)
    10 kick ups (Lay down, result in knees up toward chest, then kick legs upward to be converted into honest in the air.)
    10 side double leg lifts (Hard to give reasons for, basically lay on side, and lift both legs simultaneously as high as you can. Will feel weird at first)
    10 Forward Rows (Way too hard to give reasons for, google it)
    10 Russian Twists (Google it)
    10 Scissor Kicks (Lay on back, spread leags apart in air, result in them back to center with one leg above the other, then alternate to mimick a scissor kicking action)
    End with a bridge for but long you reckon you can do it.

    Once this routine becomes simple, don’t up the reps, just do the whole routine twice. (Left a few out for explanation’s sake)

    Then also do your run at night. Cut excessive stout out of your diet, but you can have a small still.

    Do it and you will have some abs.
