It has always been my policy to not really work abs very much. I am blessed to have a small waist and have always been afraid that doing much ab work would make my abs thick. But since I'm doing something completely new with my lifting program, I figure I might as well jump WAY out of my comfort zone and start doing some serious ab work. I found a great ab workout on my favorite fitness website, bodybuilding.com. It is Obi Obadike's ab routine and is designed to really grow some abs that will POP! So what the heck; I decided to go for it. Since the Super Squats program only has me lifting two to three times a week, I figure I will skip abs on those days and work them on the days in between. So yesterday I did about 30 minutes worth of nothing but abs, and this morning, well, they HURT. Bad. I love, love, love the pain. I don't think they've ever hurt like this before.
Here is the link to the article, which lists the exact routine I'm doing.

And here is a picture of the dude who wrote the workout:
There were a couple of the exercises that I didn't get to do because of time constraints, but believe me, I knew they'd already been put through enough torture for one day. I'll be doing HIIT this afternoon which will work them even more. I can't wait!
