Anyone get a dissented stomach from working out their abs? Or over-working them?
Has never happened to me

I heard many years ago that you can't overwork them, so I've just always incorporated my abs into every workout (5 - 6 times a week)...and train them pretty intensely. I'm wondering if I'm getting some weird adverse effect by doing so.
I hate to be that guy...but this really just seems like a waste of time. I never train abs and when I get lean enough, they are always there and look nice. Why not dial it back for a week or two to see of things settle down. I really dont see how training abs could lead to stomach issues though, unless what you are doing is somehow actually manually distressing your organs.

I'm leaning that way as well. It's just been part of my routine for so long that I've never really thought about the fact that I'm using my core in nearly every other workout. Just been something I've always done, but certainly going to cut back on that.

I don't either, but I've been to the gastro since September trying to figure out this bloating that I've been having. Colonoscopy ruled out any serious, and now I'm just playing with fodmap diets to rule out stuff - which isn't giving me consistent results.

I've seen this posted here many times, but why?
These are core workouts, or do you get enough from lifting?
