Core Exercises

[iamChiLLz]

Hard to find this information on the internet, wondering if anyone here knows (if it makes a difference)? - Is it better to do longer sets of core or more sets? Ie like 4 sets of the same rotations of say a minute or whatever each, or less sets and more time?

guys here will tell you neither. treat the core like any other muscle group, and hit it with heavy, not volume. weighted sit ups, etc.

Form is more important than timing of your sets. You can do a set of 10 situps in 10 seconds with a mediocre form and you can do a set of 10 situps in 30 seconds with perfect form. Which one is better? Obviously, the one with the perfect form.

"Time" yourself based on the execution of the form of the exercise. Don't forget to go up in weights with each exercise.
