Default Ab Routine.

I've never done abs. Ever. Don't ask why I don't have an answer. Now I'm trying to put together an Ab routine for my wife and I. What do you guys ab routines look like?

I would do a two-day/week ab routine. Just do a few basic exercises, don't know exactly what equipment you have. Something basic, don't know what her goals are either.

Basic exercises:
crunches
leg/kneee raises
reverse crunch
weighted crunches
russian twist
low-cable pull-ins
oblique crunch
cross-crunch

A few of those exercises thrown in a circuit of 20 reps or so 1 set each without rest between exercises twice a week would be good for starts. Go to www.exrx.net and look up some ab exercises and change things up every 2-3 weeks.
