well, re: just the ab exercises. i've adjusted my ab routine based on what i've figured out works for me. the video posted above has some exercises in it that have worked for me but has others that don't. similar to nutrition, i've had to experiment to figure out what works. hanging leg raises work well for my lower abs, and i get noticeable results from what i call 1/2 crunches with an isometric hold at the top. really focusing on squeezing those upper abs hard and holding that squeeze. but it's hard for me to *flex* my abs, that's been a part of my learning curve as well. so i practice squeezing/flexing my abs often. my middle abs i am still figuring out, they don't show as well, i think it's due to a bit of flab that's still there.
this is just my experience, i am not saying it's universal, i don't have anything to back that up.
