Squeeze and crunch

[cjsmith]

If you're a computer programmer, your livelihood depends in large part on your hands and on the health of their flexor tendons. If you have foot or leg problems, your ability to exercise (and thus your cardiovascular health) depends in large part on your hands and on the health of their flexor tendons. In other words, I now have a grip squeezie.

Got a question for all you fitness buffs out there. How do you work the abdominal muscles that AREN'T the basic six-pack rectus abdominis? How about those obliques and that deep transverse one?

I didn't think I was getting much of a workout when I swam this summer, either. Then I went back to the gym, and cracked off several sets and reps of a back exercise that used to leave me aching. Swimming doesn't seem like good exercise, since you aren't straining, but done often, and done with attention to form, it can be excellent!
