No way am I demonstrating on Sat - Sat is my day off!! Here's the link to Ab-Bootcamp with pictures. From what I've gathered you're supposed to flex the glutes to isolate the abs and take the hip flexors out of the equation.

Btw, there's been some debate about this over at the BFL forum and the general consensus is 20 minute AS should involve aerobic intervals, not strength i.e. increase the speed but not the resistance, you aren't supposed to be 'working' your lower body.
