Actually i've been confused about the same thing Hitmandonny I don't understand why with Abs particularly everyone says to work them everyday but all the other muscle groups you're not supposed to.

I would have thought the same rule would apply to the Abs?

At the moment I don't do an Ab workout everyday but I guess the routine I've come up with is reasonably intense and covers all the muscles I know how to target. I can't really compare the difference between doing them daily and not because I'm doing a different routine. It seems to be working ok though ............ suggestions/ explanations?

When you say contractions Scrap do you mean that the muscle needs time to relax and lengthen again?

This has been on my mind too since I've been thinking lately that a lot of my misalignments seem to be related to things that are too tight and contracted eg hip flexors.

How does that work with normal boxing training like bag work and sparring etc? I aim to train 6 days a week for boxing but I take it I should still consider how intense I should make those sessions and alternate power days with say technique days maybe?
