How many times a week should I do ab exercises? I do weight-training 3 times a week and aerobics on all my days off but one a week. (that is since I walk for work. So this week work Monday, ex Tues, work Wed, ex Thurs, work 2 hours Friday is rest day, ex Sat and Sun). Anyway sometimes I do my stomach and back crunches probably 6 times a week, although I never count. I use an exercise ball. I had neck problems in the past as I was doing about 600 crunches a day- reason being that Britney Spears did 1000. PT said that was too many and I had to lay off to not hurt my neck. Now I do 30 regular and 30 side to side and upping it very gradually. The exercise ball makes them really count! Anyway does anyone know the recommended times per week?

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
