This is how to get abs the hard way.  If you have seen Rocky II, then you have probably seen the training montage.  In it, a guy chops Rocky in the stomach as he does sit-ups.  Trust me, it's brutal!

This exercise is similar.  In it, one guy is having a medicine ball dropped on his stomach.  Figuring out how to get abs can make people do crazy things.  This exercise should be reserved for boxers and martial artists.  If you are just a normal individual looking to get great abs, there is a much easier way.
