My main concern, like most women, is my poochy belly. Currently I do a series of cardio sculpt training, yoga, and pilates. I also live near the beach so lot's of beach combing and this summer, lot's of swimming. I've been working out 5 days a week for the past 2 weeks and I'm impressed with the results. My concern is, I may be over training my abs. My cardio sculpt has about 5 minutes of mat ab work that works lower, upper and obliques. I do this 4 days a week and it's a great work out. However, my pilates and yoga training also contains ab "training". It's more stretching & lengthening movements and breathing rather than the crunches of the cardio sculpt. I really enjoy training my abs and it is a trouble area for me but I've read that doing abs more than 1 or 2 times a week can over train them. Please help...I really don't want to cut out my yoga and Pilates. They make me feel so much better.
