Dan Blewett: @Todd - You're making a few errors in logic. Just because a guy has "the biggest abs you've seen" from means other than Koch's methods doesn't mean they couldn't be made bigger from these techniques. Also, those same guys perhaps squat/dead 500 BECAUSE they have big abs, not the other way around. You can't infer causal direction very well from genetic extremes. And, just because squats and deads build strong & thick abs, doesn't mean that they're the only useful method to do so.

Dan Blewett: @domcib - wrists are tough, but generally we find that keeping it straight solves some, but not all, problems. So for those who can't do floor push ups, they can usually do them on a dumbbell or benching like you found - the wrist remains straight. For everything else, the wrist moves dynamically so it's hit or miss. I'd say get real good at the cross-arm front squat and rest it from everything else that bothers it. Continued reaggravation will prevent it from healing

halcj: Sorry but I really don't agree with this - if you are thin, eat more. Other than that, everything that applies to others applies to you. Heavy training will work for anyone, overuse of drop sets and intensity techniques will not. Any program that gets a beginner to perform regular heavy lifts and eat WILL WORK, even for a skinny "ectomorph".

Musclecoach: The first remark was on a video from my youtube channel. I co-own a gym in Norway and the video was for a circuit we ue for people over 60. There are 100 other videos you can choose from.

Musclecoach: The big question in a discussion such as this is: Are the abdominal muscle any different that any other muscle? Do they bend the spine and stabilize it. If they were not ment to work from full extension then why does the spine go back that far?

Musclecoach: As for the stability issues that have been so "in" lately. Of course you need some stability, but if tht was the major issue the abs would not be designed the way they are. Try wrapping tape around you entire midsection "duplicating stability" and see how functional you are. It is really just another issue that has been overplayed. Big time
